1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
2 Speak to the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which you shall eat among all the beasts that are on the Earth.
3 Whatever parts the hoof, and is cloven-footed, and eats that which is brought forth again, among the beasts, that shall you eat.
4 Make sure that you don't eat of those animals that eat that which is brought forth again, or of those who don't have a divided hoof, such as the camel, because it eats that which is brought forth again, but doesn't have a divided hoof; they are impure to you.
5 And the rock badger, because it eats that which is brought forth again but doesn't have a divided hoof; they are impure to you.
6 And the rabbit, because it eats that which is brought forth again, but doesn't have a divided hoof; it is impure to you.
7 And the swine, though it has a divided hoof, a cloven foot, yet ir eats that which is brought forth again; it is impure to you. *
8 Of their flesh shall you not eat, and their carcasses shall you not touch; they are impure to you.
9 These shall you eat of all that are in the waters: whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall you eat.
10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living creature which is in the waters, they shall be a detestable thing to you:
11 They shall be a detestable thing to you; you shall not eat of their flesh; you shall detest their carcasses.
12 Whatever has no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be a detestable thing to you.
13 And these are they which you shall detest among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are a detestable thing; the eagle, and the ossifrage [bird of prey], and the ospray [bird of prey],
14 And the vulture, and the kite after its kind;
15 Every raven after its kind;
16 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after its kind,
17 And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
18 And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
19 And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
20 All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be a detestable thing to you.
21 Yet these may you eat of every flying creeping thing that goes upon all four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the Earth;
22 Even these of them you may eat; the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the beetle after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind.
23 But all other flying creeping things, which have four feet, shall be a detestable thing to you.
24 And for these you shall be impure: Whoever touches the carcass of them shall be impure until the evening.
25 And whoever bears ought of the carcass of them shall wash his clothes, and be impure until the evening.
26 The carcass of every beast which divides the hoof, and is not cloven-footed, nor eats that which is brought forth again, are impure to you: everyone who touches them shall be impure.
27 And whatever goes upon its paws, among all manner of beasts that go on all four, those are impure to you: whoever touches their carcasses shall be impure until the evening.
28 And he who bears the carcass of them shall wash his clothes, and be impure until the evening: they are impure to you.
29 These also shall be impure to you among the creeping things that creep on the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after its kind,
30 And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.
31 These are impure to you among all that creep: whoever does touch them, when they be dead, shall be impure until the evening.
32 And upon whatever any of them, when they are dead, does fall, it shall be impure; whether it is any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatever vessel it be, in which any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be impure until the evening; so it shall be pure.
33 And every earthen vessel, into that place where any of them falls, whatever is in it shall be impure; and you shall break it.
34 Of all meat which may be eaten, that on which such water comes shall be impure: and all drink that may be drunk in every such vessel shall be impure.
35 And everything whereupon any part of their carcasses falls shall be impure; whether it is oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be broken down: for they are impure, and shall be impure to you.
36 Nevertheless a fountain or pit, in which there is plenty of water, shall be pure, but that which touches their carcasses shall be impure.
37 And if any part of their carcasses fall upon any sowing seed which is to be sown, it shall be pure.
38 But if any water be put upon the seed, and any part of their carcasses fall, it shall be impure to you.
39 And if any beast, of which you may eat, die; he who touches the carcass shall be impure until the evening.
40 And he who eats of the carcass of it shall wash his clothes, and be impure until the evening: he also that bears the carcass of it shall wash his clothes, and be impure until the evening.
41 And every creeping thing that creeps upon the Earth shall be a detestable thing; it shall not be eaten.
42 Whatever goes upon the belly, and whatever goes upon all four, or whatever has more feet among all creeping things that creep upon the Earth, you shall not eat them; for they are a detestable thing.
43 you shall not make yourselves detestable with any animal that walks on all fours, neither shall you make yourselves impure with them, that you should be filthy.
44 For I am Jehovah your God.  You shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and you shall be holy, for I am holy.  Neither shall you sexually corrupt your minds with any manner of animal the walks on all fours upon the Earth.
45 For I am Jehovah that brings you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: you shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
46 This is the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every living creature that walks on all fours on the Earth:
47 To make a difference between the impure and the pure, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.

Young's Literal


1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These [are] the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that [are] on the earth.
3 Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, [and] cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
4 Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: [as] the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is] unclean unto you.
5 And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is] unclean unto you.
6 And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is] unclean unto you.
7 And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he [is] unclean to you.
8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they [are] unclean to you.
9 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, them shall ye eat.
10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which [is] in the waters, they [shall be] an abomination unto you:
11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.
12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that [shall be] an abomination unto you.
13 And these [are they which] ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they [are] an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
14 And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;
15 Every raven after his kind;
16 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,
17 And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
18 And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
19 And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
20 All fowls that creep, going upon [all] four, [shall be] an abomination unto you.
21 Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon [all] four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth;
22 [Even] these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind.
23 But all [other] flying creeping things, which have four feet, [shall be] an abomination unto you.
24 And for these ye shall be unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean until the even.
25 And whosoever beareth [ought] of the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.
26 [The carcases] of every beast which divideth the hoof, and [is] not clovenfooted, nor cheweth the cud, [are] unclean unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.
27 And whatsoever goeth upon his paws, among all manner of beasts that go on [all] four, those [are] unclean unto you: whoso toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.
28 And he that beareth the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: they [are] unclean unto you.
29 These also [shall be] unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after his kind,
30 And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.
31 These [are] unclean to you among all that creep: whosoever doth touch them, when they be dead, shall be unclean until the even.
32 And upon whatsoever [any] of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it shall be unclean; whether [it be] any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel [it be], wherein [any] work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the even; so it shall be cleansed.
33 And every earthen vessel, whereinto [any] of them falleth, whatsoever [is] in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.
34 Of all meat which may be eaten, [that] on which [such] water cometh shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drunk in every [such] vessel shall be unclean.
35 And every [thing] whereupon [any part] of their carcase falleth shall be unclean; [whether it be] oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be broken down: [for] they [are] unclean, and shall be unclean unto you.
36 Nevertheless a fountain or pit, [wherein there is] plenty of water, shall be clean: but that which toucheth their carcase shall be unclean.
37 And if [any part] of their carcase fall upon any sowing seed which is to be sown, it [shall be] clean.
38 But if [any] water be put upon the seed, and [any part] of their carcase fall thereon, it [shall be] unclean unto you.
39 And if any beast, of which ye may eat, die; he that toucheth the carcase thereof shall be unclean until the even.
40 And he that eateth of the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: he also that beareth the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.
41 And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth [shall be] an abomination; it shall not be eaten.
42 Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and whatsoever goeth upon [all] four, or whatsoever hath more feet among all creeping things that creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat; for they [are] an abomination.
43 Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.
44 For I [am] the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I [am] holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
45 For I [am] the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I [am] holy.
46 This [is] the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth:
47 To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.

King James Version


1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying unto them,
2 'Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, This [is] the beast which ye do eat out of all the beasts which [are] on the earth:
3 any dividing a hoof, and cleaving the cleft of the hoofs, bringing up the cud, among the beasts, it ye do eat.
4 'Only, this ye do not eat -- of those bringing up the cud, and of those dividing the hoof -- the camel, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof not dividing -- it [is] unclean to you;
5 and the rabbit, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof it divideth not -- unclean it [is] to you;
6 and the hare, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof hath not divided -- unclean it [is] to you;
7 and the sow, though it is dividing the hoof, and cleaving the cleft of the hoof, yet the cud it bringeth not up -- unclean it [is] to you.
8 'Of their flesh ye do not eat, and against their carcase ye do not come -- unclean they [are] to you.
9 'This ye do eat of all which [are] in the waters; any one that hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the brooks, them ye do eat;
10 and any one that hath not fins and scales in the seas, and in the brooks, of any teeming creature of the waters, and of any creature which liveth, which [is] in the waters -- an abomination they [are] to you;
11 yea, an abomination they are to you; of their flesh ye do not eat, and their carcase ye abominate.
12 'Any one that hath not fins and scales in the waters -- an abomination it [is] to you.
13 'And these ye do abominate of the fowl; they are not eaten, an abomination they [are]: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
14 and the vulture, and the kite after its kind,
15 every raven after its kind,
16 and the owl, and the night-hawk, and the cuckoo, and the hawk after its kind,
17 and the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
18 and the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
19 and the stork, the heron after its kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
20 'Every teeming creature which is flying, which is going on four -- an abomination it [is] to you.
21 'Only -- this ye do eat of any teeming thing which is flying, which is going on four, which hath legs above its feet, to move with them on the earth;
22 these of them ye do eat: the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the beetle after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind;
23 and every teeming thing which is flying, which hath four feet -- an abomination it [is] to you.
24 'And by these ye are made unclean, any one who is coming against their carcase is unclean till the evening;
25 and anyone who is lifting up [aught] of their carcase doth wash his garments, and hath been unclean till the evening: --
26 even every beast which is dividing the hoof, and is not cloven-footed, and the cud is not bringing up -- unclean they [are] to you; any one who is coming against them is unclean.
27 'And any one going on its paws, among all the beasts which are going on four -- unclean they [are] to you; any one who is coming against their carcase is unclean until the evening;
28 and he who is lifting up their carcase doth wash his garments, and hath been unclean until the evening -- unclean they [are] to you.
29 'And this [is] to you the unclean among the teeming things which are teeming on the earth: the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after its kind,
30 and the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole;
31 these [are] the unclean to you among all which are teeming; any one who is coming against them in their death is unclean till the evening.
32 'And anything on which any one of them falleth, in their death, is unclean, of any vessel of wood or garment or skin or sack, any vessel in which work is done is brought into water, and hath been unclean till the evening, then it hath been clean;
33 and any earthen vessel, into the midst of which [any] one of them falleth, all that [is] in its midst is unclean, and it ye do break.
34 'Of all the food which is eaten, that on which cometh [such] water, is unclean, and all drink which is drunk in any [such] vessel is unclean;
35 and anything on which [any] of their carcase falleth is unclean (oven or double pots), it is broken down, unclean they [are], yea, unclean they are to you.
36 'Only -- a fountain or pit, a collection of water, is clean, but that which is coming against their carcase is unclean;
37 and when [any] of their carcase falleth on any sown seed which is sown -- it [is] clean;
38 and when water is put on the seed, and [any] of its carcase hath fallen on it -- unclean it [is] to you.
39 'And when any of the beasts which are to you for food dieth, he who is coming against its carcase is unclean till the evening;
40 and he who is eating of its carcase doth wash his garments, and hath been unclean till the evening; and he who is lifting up its carcase doth wash his garments, and hath been unclean till the evening.
41 'And every teeming thing which is teeming on the earth is an abomination, it is not eaten;
42 any thing going on the belly, and any going on four, unto every multiplier of feet, to every teeming thing which is teeming on the earth -- ye do not eat them, for they [are] an abomination;
43 ye do not make yourselves abominable with any teeming thing which is teeming, nor do ye make yourselves unclean with them, so that ye have been unclean thereby.
44 'For I [am] Jehovah your God, and ye have sanctified yourselves, and ye have been holy, for I [am] holy; and ye do not defile your persons with any teeming thing which is creeping on the earth;
45 for I [am] Jehovah who am bringing you up out of the land of Egypt to become your God; and ye have been holy, for I [am] holy.
46 'This [is] a law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature which is moving in the waters, and of every creature which is teeming on the earth,
47 to make separation between the unclean and the pure, and between the beast that is eaten, and the beast that is not eaten.'
