spoke to mosheh and to aharon,
saying to them, 2
speak to the sons of yisrael, saying,
these are the living things which you will eat out of all the
animals which are on the earth. 3 any that divides the hoof and is
wholly cloven footed, bringing up the cud, among the living things,
you may eat it. 4
only, you may not eat these, of those bringing up the cud, and

cud, yet it does not divide the hoof; it is unclean to you;
5 and the rock badger, though it brings up the
cud, yet it does not divide the hoof; it is unclean to you;
6 and the hare, though it brings up the cud,
yet it does not divide the hoof; it is unclean to you;
7 and the swine, though it divides the hoof
and is cloven footed, yet it does not bring up the cud; it is
unclean to you. 8
you will not eat of their flesh, and
you will not touch their dead body; they are unclean to you.
9 of all that are in the waters, you will eat
these; any one that has fins and scales in the waters, in the
seas, and in the torrents, you may eat them. 10 but any one that does not have
fins and scales in the seas, and in the torrents, of any swarming
creature of the waters, and of any creature which lives in the
waters; they are to be detested by you.
11 yes, they will be detested by you; you will
not eat of their flesh and you will shun their dead bodies.
12 any one that does not have fins and scales
in the waters, it will be an unclean thing to you.

going on all four, it is an abomination to you.
21 only, this you may eat of any swarming thing
which flies, which goes on all four, which has legs above its
feet, to leap with them on the earth;
22 these are those you may eat, the locusts
according to its kind, and the bald locust according to its kind,
and the long horned locust according to its kind, and the short
horned grasshopper according to its kind. 23 but every swarming thing which
flies, which has four feet, it is unclean to you.' "

thing that swarms on the earth, you will not eat them, for they
are unclean.' "

animals, and of the fowl, and of every living creature which moves
in the waters, and every creature which swarms on the earth, 47 to make a distinction between
the unclean and the clean, and between the living thing that may
be eaten and the living thing that may not be eaten.' "

4 this the beast which you may eat, ox, lamb
of the sheep, or kid of the goats,
5 hart, and roe, and fallow deer, and wild goat,
and pygarg, and wild ox, and chamois.
6 and every beast dividing the hoof, and cleaving
the cleft into two hoofs, bringing up the cud, among the beasts,
it you may eat. 7
only, this you will not eat, of those bringing up the cud, and
of those dividing the cloven hoof, the camel, and the hare, and
the rabbit, for they are bringing up the cud but the hoof have
not divided; unclean they to you.
8 and the sow, for it is dividing the hoof,
and not up the cud, unclean it to you; of their flesh you do not
eat, and against their carcase you do
not come. 9
this you may eat of all that in the waters; all that has fins
and scales you may eat. 10 and anything which has not fins
and scales you will not eat; unclean it to you.
11 any clean bird you may eat. 12
and these are they of which you will not eat, the eagle, and the
ossifrage, and the ospray.
13 and the glede,
and the kite, and the vulture after its kind. 14 and every raven
after its kind. 15 and the owl, and the nighthawk, and the cuckoo, and
the hawk after its kind.
16 the owl, and the owl, and the swan. 17 and the pelican,
and the gier-eagle, and the cormorant. 18 and the stork,
and the heron after its kind, and the lapwing, and the bat. 19 and every teeming thing which
is flying, unclean it to you; they are not eaten. 20 any clean fowl you may eat.
21 you will not eat of any carcase;
to the ger who is within your gates
you may give it, and he has eaten it; or sell to a stranger; for
a set apart people you to YHWH your elohey;
you will not boil a kid in its mother's milk.' "
