And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
Speak to the children of Israel, saying, These [are] the animals which ye shall eat among all the beasts that [are] on the earth.
Whatsoever hath cloven hoofs, and feet split open, bringing up the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
Only these shall ye not eat of those that bring up the cud, or of those with cloven hoofs; the camel, for it bringeth up the cud but hath not cloven hoofs, it [is] unclean to you;
and the rock-badger, for it bringeth up the cud but hath not cloven hoofs, it [is] unclean to you:
and the hare, for it bringeth up the cud but hath not cloven hoofs, it [is] unclean to you;
and the swine, for it hath cloven hoofs and feet split open, but it bringeth not up the cud, it [is] unclean to you.
Of their flesh ye shall not eat, and their carcasses ye shall not touch, they [are] unclean to you.
These shall ye eat of all that [are] in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas and in the rivers, these shall ye eat.
But all that have not fins and scales in seas and in rivers, of all that swarm in the waters, and of every living creature that [is] in the waters, they [are] an abomination to you.
They shall be even an abomination to you: of their flesh ye shall not eat, and their carcass ye shall have in abomination.
Whatever in the waters hath no fins and scales, that [shall be] an abomination to you.
And these ye shall have in abomination among the birds; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the osprey, and the sea eagle;
and the falcon, and the kite after its kind;
every raven after its kind;
and the ostrich, and the night hawk, and the seagull, and the hawk after its kind;
and the owl, and the gannet, and the ibis,
and the swan, and the pelican, and the vulture,
and the stork; the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.
Every winged insect (or, crawling thing) that goeth on [all] four [shall be] an abomination unto you.
Yet these shall ye eat of every winged insect that goeth on [all] four: those that have legs above their feet with which to leap upon the earth.
These shall ye eat of them: the arbeh after its kind, and the salam after its kind, and the chargol after its kind, and the chagab after its kind.
But every winged insect that hath four feet [shall be] an abomination unto you.
And by these ye shall make yourselves unclean: whoever toucheth their carcass shall be unclean until the even.
And whoever carrieth of their carcass shall wash his garments, and be unclean until the even.
Every beast that hath cloven hoofs, but is not quite split open, nor cheweth the cud, shall be unclean to you; everyone that toucheth them shall be unclean.
And whatever goeth on its paws, among all beasts that go on all four, those are unclean to you: whoever toucheth their carcass shall be unclean until the even.
And he that beareth the carcass of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: they are unclean to you.
And these shall be unclean to you among the creeping (or swarming) things that creep on the earth: the mole, and the mouse, and the tortoise after its kind;
and the gecko, and the land-crocodile, and the lizard, and the sand-lizard, and the chameleon.
These shall be unclean to you among all that creep: whoever toucheth them when they are dead, shall be unclean until the even.
And on whatever any of them when they are dead falleth, it shall be unclean; all vessels of wood, or garment, or skin, or sack, every vessel wherewith work is done, it shall be put into water, and be unclean until the even; then shall it be clean.
And every earthen vessel, whereunto [any] of them falleth, whatever is in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.
All food that is eaten on which [such] water hath come shall be unclean, and all drink that is drunk shall be unclean in every [such] vessel.
And everything whereon [aught] of their carcass falleth shall be unclean; oven or range shall be broken down: they are unclean and shall be unclean to you.
Nevertheless a spring or a well, a collection of water, shall be clean. But he that toucheth their carcass shall be unclean.
And if [aught] of their carcass fall on any sowing-seed that is to be sown, it is clean;
but if water be put on the seed, and [aught] of their carcass fall thereon, it is unclean to you.
And if any beast die that is to you for food, he that toucheth the carcass thereof shall be unclean until the even;
and he that eateth of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even; he also that carrieth its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.
And every crawling thing which crawleth on the earth shall be an abomination; it shall not be eaten.
Whatever goeth on the belly, and whatever goeth on all four, and all that have a great many feet, of every manner of crawling thing which crawleth on the earth—these ye shall not eat; for they are an abomination.
Ye shall not make yourselves abominable through any crawling thing which crawleth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.
For I am Jehovah your God; and ye shall hallow yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy; and ye shall not make yourselves unclean through any manner of crawling thing which creepeth on the earth.
For I am Jehovah who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
This is the law of cattle, and of fowl, and of every living soul that moveth in the waters, and of every soul that crawleth on the earth;
to make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that is to be eaten and the beast that is not to be eaten.
