Deuteronomy - ch 14 v 1 - 20
- Ye are the children of Jehovah your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
- For thou art a holy people unto Jehovah thy God, and Jehovah hath chosen thee to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples that are upon the face of the earth.
- Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.
- These are the beasts which ye may eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,
- the hart, and the gazelle, and the roebuck, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the antelope, and the chamois.
- And every beast that parteth the hoof, and hath the hoof cloven in two, `and' cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that may ye eat.
- Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that have the hoof cloven: the camel, and the hare, and the coney; because they chew the cud but part not the hoof, they are unclean unto you.
- And the swine, because he parteth the hoof but cheweth not the cud, he is unclean unto you: of their flesh ye shall not eat, and their carcasses ye shall not touch.
- These ye may eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales may ye eat;
- and whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye shall not eat; it is unclean unto you.
- Of all clean birds ye may eat.
- But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the gier-eagle, and the ospray,
- and the glede, and the falcon, and the kite after its kind,
- and every raven after its kind,
- and the ostrich, and the night-hawk, and the sea-mew, and the hawk after its kind,
- the little owl, and the great owl, and the horned owl,
- and the pelican, and the vulture, and the cormorant,
- and the stork, and the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.
- And all winged creeping things are unclean unto you: they shall not be eaten.
- Of all clean birds ye may eat.
