And the
Lord spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto
them,
02 Speak unto the children of Israel,
saying, These are the beasts which ye shall eat
among all the beasts that are on the earth.
03 Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is
clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the
beasts, that shall ye eat.
04 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.
05 And the coney, because he cheweth the
cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean
unto you.
06 And the hare, because he cheweth the
cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean
unto you.
07 And the swine, though he divide the
hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the
cud; he is unclean to you.
08 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and
their carcase shall ye not touch; they are
unclean to you.
09 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.
