凡走獸中偶蹄，有趾及反芻的，你們都可以吃。
4 But of these you shall not eat, of those that chew the cud, and of those that part the hoofs, and divide claws; the camel, because it chews the cud, but does not divide the hoof, this is unclean to you.
但在反芻或有偶蹄的走獸中，你們不可吃的是駱駝，因為駱駝雖反芻，但偶蹄無趾，對你們仍是潔的；
5 And the rabbit, because it chews the cud, but does not divide the hoof, this is unclean to you.

但凡在水中蠕動，和在水中生存的生物，若沒有鰭和鱗，不論是海裡的，或河裡的，都是你們所當憎惡的。

你們不要因任何爬蟲使你們成為可憎惡的；你們不要因牠們而成為不潔的，或染上不潔，
44 For I am the Lord your God; and you shall be sanctified, and you shall be holy, because I the Lord your God am holy; and you shall not defile your souls with any of the reptiles creeping upon the earth.
因為我上主是你們的天主：你們該表現為聖潔的，你們應是聖的，因為我是聖的。你們不要因地上任何爬蟲，而使自己成為不潔的，
45 For I am the Lord who brought you up out of the land of Egypt to be your God; and you shall be holy, for I the Lord am holy.
因為是我上主領你們由埃及地上來，為作你們的天主：你們應是聖的，因為我是聖的。
46 This is the law concerning beasts and birds and every living creature moving in the water, and every living creature creeping on the earth;
以上是有關走獸飛禽，一切水中游行和地上一切爬行動物的法律，
47 to distinguish between the unclean and the clean; and between those that bring forth alive, such as should be eaten, and those that bring forth alive, such as should not be eaten.
