Leviticus - ch 11 v 1 - 20
- And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying unto them,
- `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:
- any dividing a hoof, and cleaving the cleft of the hoofs, bringing up the cud, among the beasts, it ye do eat.
- `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;
- and the rabbit, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof it divideth not -- unclean it `is' to you;
- and the hare, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof hath not divided -- unclean it `is' to you;
- 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.
- `Of their flesh ye do not eat, and against their carcase ye do not come -- unclean they `are' to you.
- `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;
- 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;
- yea, an abomination they are to you; of their flesh ye do not eat, and their carcase ye abominate.
- `Any one that hath not fins and scales in the waters -- an abomination it `is' to you.
- `And these ye do abominate of the fowl; they are not eaten, an abomination they `are': the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
- and the vulture, and the kite after its kind,
- every raven after its kind,
- and the owl, and the night-hawk, and the cuckoo, and the hawk after its kind,
- and the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
- and the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
- and the stork, the heron after its kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
- `Every teeming creature which is flying, which is going on four -- an abomination it `is' to you.
