Deuteronomy - ch 14 v 1 - 20
- Ye are sons of Jehovah your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for a dead person.
- For thou art a holy people unto Jehovah thy God, and thee hath Jehovah chosen for a people of possession unto himself, out of all the peoples that are upon the face of the earth.
- Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.
- These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat;
- the hart, and the gazelle, and the stag, and the wild goat, and the dishon and the oryx, and the wild sheep.
- And every beast that hath cloven hoofs, and the feet quite split open into double hoofs, and which cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that ye shall eat.
- Only these ye shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those with hoofs cloven and split open: the camel, and the hare, and the rock-badger; for they chew the cud, but have not cloven hoofs -- they shall be unclean unto you;
- and the swine, for it hath cloven hoofs, yet cheweth not the cud -- it shall be unclean unto you. Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch.
- These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales shall ye eat;
- but whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye shall not eat: it shall be unclean unto you.
- All clean birds shall ye eat.
- But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the sea-eagle,
- and the falcon, and the kite, and the black kite after its kind;
- and every raven after its kind;
- and the female ostrich, and the male ostrich, and the sea-gull, and the hawk after its kind;
- the owl, and the ibis and the swan,
- and the pelican, and the carrion vulture, and the gannet,
- and the stork, and the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.
- And every winged crawling thing shall be unclean unto you; they shall not be eaten.
- All clean fowls shall ye eat.
