Deuteronomy 14 (WEBP)

[1] You are the children of Yahweh your God. You shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
[2] For you are a holy people to Yahweh your God, and Yahweh has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.
[3] You shall not eat any abominable thing.
[4] These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,
[5] the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the chamois.
[6] Every animal that parts the hoof, and has the hoof split in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat.
[7] Nevertheless these you shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of those who have the hoof split: the camel, the hare, and the rabbit. Because they chew the cud but don’t part the hoof, they are unclean to you.
[8] The pig, because it has a split hoof but doesn’t chew the cud, is unclean to you. You shall not eat their meat. You shall not touch their carcasses.
[9] These you may eat of all that are in the waters: you may eat whatever has fins and scales.
[10] You shall not eat whatever doesn’t have fins and scales. It is unclean to you.
[11] Of all clean birds you may eat.
[12] But these are they of which you shall not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the osprey,
[13] the red kite, the falcon, the kite of any kind,
[14] every raven of any kind,
[15] the ostrich, the owl, the seagull, the hawk of any kind,
[16] the little owl, the great owl, the horned owl,
[17] the pelican, the vulture, the cormorant,
[18] the stork, the heron after its kind, the hoopoe, and the bat.
[19] All winged creeping things are unclean to you. They shall not be eaten.
[20] Of all clean birds you may eat.
[21] You shall not eat of anything that dies of itself. You may give it to the foreigner living among you who is within your gates, that he may eat it; or you may sell it to a foreigner; for you are a holy people to Yahweh your God. You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.
[22] You shall surely tithe all the increase of your seed, that which comes out of the field year by year.
[23] You shall eat before Yahweh your God, in the place which he chooses to cause his name to dwell, the tithe of your grain, of your new wine, and of your oil, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock; that you may learn to fear Yahweh your God always.
[24] If the way is too long for you, so that you are not able to carry it because the place which Yahweh your God shall choose to set his name there is too far from you, when Yahweh your God blesses you,
[25] then you shall turn it into money, bind up the money in your hand, and shall go to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose.
[26] You shall trade the money for whatever your soul desires: for cattle, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatever your soul asks of you. You shall eat there before Yahweh your God, and you shall rejoice, you and your household.
[27] You shall not forsake the Levite who is within your gates, for he has no portion nor inheritance with you.
[28] At the end of every three years you shall bring all the tithe of your increase in the same year, and shall store it within your gates.
[29] The Levite, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you, as well as the foreigner living among you, the fatherless, and the widow who are within your gates shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that Yahweh your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.

Young’s Literal Translation

Deuteronomy 14 (YLT)

[1] ‘Sons ye are to Jehovah your God; ye do not cut yourselves, nor make baldness between your eyes for the dead;
[2] for a holy people art thou to Jehovah thy God, and on thee hath Jehovah fixed to be to Him for a people, a peculiar treasure, out of all the peoples who are on the face of the ground.
[3] ‘Thou dost not eat any abominable thing;
[4] ‘this is the beast which ye do 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 ye do eat.
[7] ‘Only, this ye do 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 are to you;
[8] and the sow, for it is dividing the hoof, and not bringing up the cud, unclean it is to you; of their flesh ye do not eat, and against their carcase ye do not come.
[9] ‘This ye do eat of all that are in the waters; all that hath fins and scales ye do eat;
[10] and anything which hath not fins and scales ye do not eat; unclean it is to you.
[11] ‘Any clean bird ye do eat;
[12] and these are they of which ye do 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 night-hawk, and the cuckoo, and the hawk after its kind;
[16] the little owl, and the great 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 is to you; they are not eaten;
[20] any clean fowl ye do eat.
[21] ‘Ye do not eat of any carcase; to the sojourner who is within thy gates thou dost give it, and he hath eaten it; or sell it to a stranger; for a holy people thou art to Jehovah thy God; thou dost not boil a kid in its mother’s milk.
[22] ‘Thou dost certainly tithe all the increase of thy seed which the field is bringing forth year by year;
[23] and thou hast eaten before Jehovah thy God, in the place where He doth choose to cause His name to tabernacle, the tithe of thy corn, of thy new wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herd, and of thy flock, so that thou dost learn to fear Jehovah thy God all the days.
[24] ‘And when the way is too much for thee, that thou art not able to carry it-when the place is too far off from thee which Jehovah thy God doth choose to put His name there, when Jehovah thy God doth bless thee;-
[25] then thou hast given it in money, and hast bound up the money in thy hand, and gone unto the place on which Jehovah thy God doth fix;
[26] and thou hast given the money for any thing which thy soul desireth, for oxen, and for sheep, and for wine, and for strong drink, and for any thing which thy soul asketh, and thou hast eaten there before Jehovah thy God, and thou hast rejoiced, thou and thy house.
[27] As to the Levite who is within thy gates, thou dost not forsake him, for he hath no portion and inheritance with thee.
[28] ‘At the end of three years thou dost bring out all the tithe of thine increase in that year, and hast placed it within thy gates;
[29] and come in hath the Levite (for he hath no part and inheritance with thee), and the sojourner, and the fatherless, and the widow, who are within thy gates, and they have eaten, and been satisfied, so that Jehovah thy God doth bless thee in all the work of thy hand which thou dost.
