Verse 17
Deuteronomy 14:17
Free Bible Version
17
You must not eat any animal that dies. You can give it to a foreigner in your town, and they can eat it, or you can sell it to a foreigner. You, however, are a holy people who belong to the Lord your God (Elohim). Don't cook a young goat in its mother's milk.
