Leviticus 11
1 And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
上主訓示梅瑟和亞郎說：「
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the animals which ye shall eat of all the beasts which are on the earth.
你們應告訴色列子民說：地上的一切走獸中，你們可吃的獸類如下：

凡走獸中偶蹄，有趾及反芻的，你們都可以吃。
4 Only these shall ye not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those with cloven hoofs: the camel, for it cheweth the cud, but hath not cloven hoofs — it shall be unclean unto 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；

9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatever hath fins and scales in waters, in seas and in rivers, these shall ye eat;
水族中你們可吃的如下：凡是水中有鰭有鱗的，不論是海裡的，或河裡的，都可以吃；
10 but all that have not fins and scales in seas and in rivers, of all that swarm in the waters, and of every living soul which is in the waters — they shall be an abomination unto 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。
11 They shall be even an abomination unto you: of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase ye shall have in abomination.

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 Jehovah your God; and ye shall hallow yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy; and ye shall not make yourselves unclean through any manner of crawling thing which creepeth on 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 Jehovah who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I 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 of cattle, and of fowl, and of every living soul that moveth in the waters, and of every soul that crawleth 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 make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that is to be eaten and the beast that is not to be eaten.
以便分辨潔與不潔，可吃與不可吃的生物。
