Deuteronomium 12:21

Is de plaats, welke de Heer, uw God, verkoren heeft, opdat Hij zijnen naam aldaar late wonen, ver van u, zo slacht van uw runderen of schapen, welke de Heer u gegeven heeft, zoals ik u geboden heb, en eet het in uwe poorten naar al de begeerte uwer ziel.

indien de plaats die de Heer, uw god, zal uitkiezen om er zijn naam te vestigen te ver van u verwijderd is, dan moogt gij van uw runderen en uw kleinvee, die de Heer u zal gegeven hebben, slachten gelijk ik u geboden heb, en eten in uw steden naar hartelust;
Staten Vertaling
Zo de plaats, die de HEERE, uw God, verkiezen zal, om Zijn Naam aldaar te zetten, verre van u zal zijn, zo zult gij slachten van uw runderen en van uw schapen, die de HEERE u gegeven heeft, gelijk als ik u geboden heb; en gij zult eten in uw poorten, naar allen lust uwer ziel.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

If the place which the Lord thy God hath chosen to put his name be too far from thee,.... Or rather "for" h, or "seeing" the place will be too far from thee; for it is allowed before that they might kill and eat flesh for common food in their gates, Deuteronomy 12:15

then thou shalt kill of thy herd and of thy flock; of thy oxen and of thy sheep, creatures used in sacrifice; but this was no bar to the use of them for common food also:

which the Lord hath given thee, as I have commanded thee; Deuteronomy 12:15

and thou shalt eat in thy gates whatsoever thy soul lusteth after; flesh of any sort, lawful to be eaten.

h כי "cum", Pagninus, Montanus.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

If the place ... - Rather, “Because, or since, the place will be too far from thee.” The permission given in Deuteronomy 12:15-16 is repeated, and the reason of it assigned.
