World English Bible Classic
[1] Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them, [2] “Speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘These are the living things which you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth. [3] Whatever parts the hoof, and is cloven-footed, and chews the cud among the animals, that you may eat. [4] “ ‘Nevertheless these you shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those who part the hoof: the camel, because it chews the cud but doesn’t have a parted hoof, is unclean to you. [5] The hyrax,§ because it chews the cud but doesn’t have a parted hoof, is unclean to you. [6] The hare, because it chews the cud but doesn’t have a parted hoof, is unclean to you. [7] The pig, because it has a split hoof, and is cloven-footed, but doesn’t chew the cud, is unclean to you. [8] You shall not eat their meat. You shall not touch their carcasses. They are unclean to you. [9] “ ‘You may eat of all these that are in the waters: whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, that you may eat. [10] All that don’t have fins and scales in the seas and rivers, all that move in the waters, and all the living creatures that are in the waters, they are an abomination to you, [11] and you shall detest them. You shall not eat of their meat, and you shall detest their carcasses. [12] Whatever has no fins nor scales in the waters is an abomination to you. [13] “ ‘You shall detest these among the birds; they shall not be eaten because they are an abomination: the eagle, the vulture, the black vulture, [14] the red kite, any kind of black kite, [15] any kind of raven, [16] the horned owl, the screech owl, the gull, any kind of hawk, [17] the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl, [18] the white owl, the desert owl, the osprey, [19] the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, and the bat. [20] “ ‘All flying insects that walk on all fours are an abomination to you. [21] Yet you may eat these: of all winged creeping things that go on all fours, which have long, jointed legs for hopping on the earth. [22] Even of these you may eat: any kind of locust, any kind of katydid, any kind of cricket, and any kind of grasshopper. [23] But all winged creeping things which have four feet are an abomination to you. [24] “ ‘By these you will become unclean: whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening. [25] Whoever carries any part of their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. [26] “ ‘Every animal which has a split hoof that isn’t completely divided, or doesn’t chew the cud, is unclean to you. Everyone who touches them shall be unclean. [27] Whatever goes on its paws, among all animals that go on all fours, they are unclean to you. Whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening. [28] He who carries their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. They are unclean to you. [29] “ ‘These are they which are unclean to you among the creeping things that creep on the earth: the weasel, the rat, any kind of great lizard, [30] the gecko, and the monitor lizard, the wall lizard, the skink, and the chameleon. [31] These are they which are unclean to you among all that creep. Whoever touches them when they are dead shall be unclean until the evening. [32] Anything they fall on when they are dead shall be unclean; whether it is any vessel of wood, or clothing, or skin, or sack, whatever vessel it is, with which any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening. Then it will be clean. [33] Every earthen vessel into which any of them falls and all that is in it shall be unclean. You shall break it. [34] All food which may be eaten which is soaked in water shall be unclean. All drink that may be drunk in every such vessel shall be unclean. [35] Everything whereupon part of their carcass falls shall be unclean; whether oven, or range for pots, it shall be broken in pieces. They are unclean, and shall be unclean to you. [36] Nevertheless a spring or a cistern in which water is gathered shall be clean, but that which touches their carcass shall be unclean. [37] If part of their carcass falls on any sowing seed which is to be sown, it is clean. [38] But if water is put on the seed, and part of their carcass falls on it, it is unclean to you. [39] “ ‘If any animal of which you may eat dies, he who touches its carcass shall be unclean until the evening. [40] He who eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. He also who carries its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. [41] “ ‘Every creeping thing that creeps on the earth is an abomination. It shall not be eaten. [42] Whatever goes on its belly, and whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet, even all creeping things that creep on the earth, them you shall not eat; for they are an abomination. [43] You shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creeps. You shall not make yourselves unclean with them, that you should be defiled by them. [44] For I am Yahweh your God. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am holy. You shall not defile yourselves with any kind of creeping thing that moves on the earth. [45] For I am Yahweh who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. You shall therefore be holy, for I am holy. [46] “ ‘This is the law of the animal, and of the bird, and of every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps 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.’ ”

[5] And the coney,H8227 because he chewethH5927(HiphPtc) the cud,H1625 but dividethH6536(HiphImpf) not the hoof;H6541 he [is] uncleanH2931 unto you.

[7] And the swine,H2386 though he divideH6536(HiphPtc) the hoof,H6541 and be clovenfooted,H8156(QalActPtc) yet he chewethH1641(NiphImpf) not the cud;H1625 he [is] uncleanH2931 to you. [8] Of their fleshH1320 shall ye not eat,H398(QalImpf) and their carcaseH5038 shall ye not touch;H5060(QalImpf) they [are] uncleanH2931 to you. [9] These shall ye eatH398(QalImpf) of all that [are] in the waters:H4325 whatsoever hath finsH5579 and scalesH7193 in the waters,H4325 in the seas,H3220 and in the rivers,H5158 them shall ye eat.H398(QalImpf) [10] And all that have not finsH5579 and scalesH7193 in the seas,H3220 and in the rivers,H5158 of all that moveH8318 in the waters,H4325 and of any livingH2416 thingH5315 which [is] in the waters,H4325 they [shall be] an abominationH8263 unto you: [11] They shall be even an abominationH8263 unto you; ye shall not eatH398(QalImpf) of their flesh,H1320 but ye shall have their carcasesH5038 in abomination.H8262(PielImpf) [12] Whatsoever hath no finsH5579 nor scalesH7193 in the waters,H4325 that [shall be] an abominationH8263 unto you. [13] And these [are they which] ye shall have in abominationH8262(PielImpf) amongH4480 the fowls;H5775 they shall not be eaten,H398(NiphImpf) they [are] an abomination:H8263 the eagle,H5404 and the ossifrage,H6538 and the ospray,H5822 [14] And the vulture,H1676 and the kiteH344 after his kind;H4327 [15] Every ravenH6158 after his kind;H4327 [16] And the owl,H1323 and the night hawk,H8464 and the cuckow,H7828 and the hawkH5322 after his kind,H4327 [17] And the little owl,H3563 and the cormorant,H7994 and the great owl,H3244 [18] And the swan,H8580 and the pelican,H6893 and the gier eagle,H7360 [19] And the stork,H2624 the heronH601 after her kind,H4327 and the lapwing,H1744 and the bat.H5847 [20] All fowlsH5775 that creep,H8318 goingH1980(QalActPtc) upon [all] four,H702 [shall be] an abominationH8263 unto you. [21] Yet these may ye eatH398(QalImpf) of every flyingH5775 creepingH8318 thing that goethH1980(QalActPtc) upon [all] four,H702 which have legsH3767 aboveH4605 their feet,H7272 to leapH5425(PielInf) withalH2004 upon the earth;H776 [22] [Even] these of them ye may eat;H398(QalImpf) the locustH697 after his kind,H4327 and the bald locustH5556 after his kind,H4327 and the beetleH2728 after his kind,H4327 and the grasshopperH2284 after his kind.H4327 [23] But all [other] flyingH5775 creeping things,H8318 which have fourH702 feet,H7272 [shall be] an abominationH8263 unto you. [24] And for these ye shall be unclean:H2930(HithImpf) whosoever touchethH5060(QalActPtc) the carcaseH5038 of them shall be uncleanH2930(QalImpf) until the even.H6153 [25] And whosoever bearethH5375(QalActPtc) [ought] of the carcaseH5038 of them shall washH3526(PielImpf) his clothes,H899 and be uncleanH2930(QalPerf) until the even.H6153 [26] [The carcases] of every beastH929 which dividethH6536(HiphPtc) the hoof,H6541 and [is] not clovenfooted,H8157 nor chewethH5927(HiphPtc) the cud,H1625 [are] uncleanH2931 unto you: every one that touchethH5060(QalActPtc) them shall be unclean.H2930(QalImpf) [27] And whatsoeverH3605 goethH1980(QalActPtc) upon his paws,H3709 among all manner of beastsH2416 that goH1980(QalActPtc) on [all] four,H702 those [are] uncleanH2931 unto you: whoso touchethH5060(QalActPtc) their carcaseH5038 shall be uncleanH2930(QalImpf) until the even.H6153 [28] And he that bearethH5375(QalActPtc) the carcaseH5038 of them shall washH3526(PielImpf) his clothes,H899 and be uncleanH2930(QalPerf) until the even:H6153 they [are] uncleanH2931 unto you.

[34] Of all meatH400 which may be eaten,H398(NiphImpf) [that] on which [such] waterH4325 comethH935(QalImpf) shall be unclean:H2930(QalImpf) and all drinkH4945 that may be drunkH8354(NiphImpf) in every [such] vesselH3627 shall be unclean.H2930(QalImpf) [35] And every [thing] whereupon [any part] of their carcaseH5038 fallethH5307(QalImpf) shall be unclean;H2930(QalImpf) [whether it be] oven,H8574 or rangesH3600 for pots, they shall be broken down:H5422(HophImpf) [for] they [are] unclean,H2931 and shall be uncleanH2931 unto you. [36] Nevertheless a fountainH4599 or pit,H953 [wherein there is] plentyH4723 of water,H4325 shall be clean:H2889 but that which touchethH5060(QalActPtc) their carcaseH5038 shall be unclean.H2930(QalImpf) [37] And if [any part] of their carcaseH5038 fallH5307(QalImpf) upon any sowingH2221 seedH2233 which is to be sown,H2232(NiphImpf) it [shall be] clean.H2889 [38] But if [any] waterH4325 be putH5414(HophImpf) upon the seed,H2233 and [any part] of their carcaseH5038 fallH5307(QalPerf) thereon, it [shall be] uncleanH2931 unto you.

[44] For I [am] the LordH3068 your God:H430 ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves,H6942(HithPerf) and ye shall be holy;H6918 for I [am] holy:H6918 neither shall ye defileH2930(PielImpf) yourselvesH5315 with any manner of creeping thingH8318 that creepethH7430(QalActPtc) upon the earth.H776 [45] For I [am] the LordH3068 that bringethH5927(HiphPtc) you up out of the landH776 of Egypt,H4714 to be your God:H430 ye shall therefore be holy,H6918 for I [am] holy.H6918 [46] This [is] the lawH8451 of the beasts,H929 and of the fowl,H5775 and of every livingH2416 creatureH5315 that movethH7430(QalActPtc) in the waters,H4325 and of every creatureH5315 that creepethH8317(QalActPtc) upon the earth:H776 [47] To make a differenceH914(HiphInf) between the uncleanH2931 and the clean,H2889 and between the beastH2416 that may be eatenH398(NiphPtc) and the beastH2416 that may not be eaten.H398(NiphImpf)
