Deuteronomy 15:20-22
New English Translation

20 You and your household must eat them annually before the Lord your God in the place he[a] chooses. 21 If one of them has any kind of blemish—lameness, blindness, or anything else[b]—you may not offer it as a sacrifice to the Lord your God. 22 You may eat it in your villages,[c] whether you are ritually impure or clean,[d] just as you would eat a gazelle or an ibex.
