< Leviticus 11 >

1 And the Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying:
locutus est Dominus ad Mosen et Aaron dicens
2 Say to the children of Israel: These are the animals which you are to eat of all the living things of the earth.
dicite filiis Israhel haec sunt animalia quae comedere debetis de cunctis animantibus terrae
3 Whatsoever hath the hoof divided, and cheweth the cud among the beasts, you shall eat.
omne quod habet divisam ungulam et ruminat in pecoribus comedetis
4 But whatsoever cheweth indeed the cud, and hath a hoof, but divideth it not, as the camel, and others, that you shall not eat, but shall reckon it among the unclean.
quicquid autem ruminat quidem et habet ungulam sed non dividit eam sicut camelus et cetera non comedetis illud et inter inmunda reputabitis
5 The cherogrillus which cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof, is unclean.
chyrogryllius qui ruminat ungulamque non dividit inmundus est
6 The hare also: for that too cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof.
lepus quoque nam et ipse ruminat sed ungulam non dividit
7 And the swine, which, though it divideth the hoof, cheweth not the cud.
et sus qui cum ungulam dividat non ruminat
8 The flesh of these you shall not eat, nor shall you touch their carcasses, because they are unclean to you.
horum carnibus non vescemini nec cadavera contingetis quia inmunda sunt vobis
9 These are the things that breed in the waters, and which it is lawful to eat. All that hath fins, and scales, as well in the sea, as in the rivers, and the pools, you shall eat.
haec sunt quae gignuntur in aquis et vesci licitum est omne quod habet pinnulas et squamas tam in mari quam in fluminibus et stagnis comedetis
10 But whatsoever hath not fins and scales, of those things that move and live in the waters, shall be an abomination to you,
quicquid autem pinnulas et squamas non habet eorum quae in aquis moventur et vivunt abominabile vobis
11 And detestable: their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall avoid.
et execrandum erit carnes eorum non comedetis et morticina vitabitis
12 All that have not fins and scales, in the waters, shall be unclean.
cuncta quae non habent pinnulas et squamas in aquis polluta erunt
13 Of birds these are they which you must not eat, and which are to be avoided by you: The eagle, and the griffon, and the osprey,
haec sunt quae de avibus comedere non debetis et vitanda sunt vobis aquilam et grypem et alietum
14 And the kite, and the vulture, according to their kind,
milvum ac vulturem iuxta genus suum
15 And all that is of the raven kind, according to their likeness.
et omne corvini generis in similitudinem suam
16 The ostrich, and the owl, and the larus, and the hawk according to its kind.
strutionem et noctuam et larum et accipitrem iuxta genus suum
17 The screech owl, and the cormorant, and the ibis,
bubonem et mergulum et ibin
18 And the swan, and the bittern, and the porphyrion,
cycnum et onocrotalum et porphirionem
19 The heron, and the charadrion according to its kind, the houp also, and the bat.
erodionem et charadrion iuxta genus suum opupam quoque et vespertilionem
20 Of things that fly, whatsoever goeth upon four feet, shall be abominable to you.
omne de volucribus quod graditur super quattuor pedes abominabile erit vobis
21 But whatsoever walketh upon four feet, but hath the legs behind longer, wherewith it hoppeth upon the earth,
quicquid autem ambulat quidem super quattuor pedes sed habet longiora retro crura per quae salit super terram
22 That you shall eat, as the bruchus in its kind, the attacus, and ophiomachus, and the locust, every one according to their kind.
comedere debetis ut est brucus in genere suo et attacus atque ophiomachus ac lucusta singula iuxta genus suum
23 But of dying things whatsoever hath four feet only, shall be an abomination to you:
quicquid autem ex volucribus quattuor tantum habet pedes execrabile erit vobis
24 And whosoever shall touch the carcasses of them, shall be defiled, and shall be unclean until the evening:
et quicumque morticina eorum tetigerit polluetur et erit inmundus usque ad vesperum
25 And if it be necessary that he carry any of these things when they are dead, he shall wash his clothes, and shall be unclean until the sun set.
et si necesse fuerit ut portet quippiam horum mortuum lavabit vestimenta sua et inmundus erit usque ad solis occasum
26 Every beast that hath a hoof, but divideth it not, nor cheweth the cud, shall be unclean: and he that toucheth it, shall be defiled.
omne animal quod habet quidem ungulam sed non dividit eam nec ruminat inmundum erit et quicquid tetigerit illud contaminabitur
27 That which walketh upon hands of all animals which go on all four, shall be unclean: he that shall touch their carcasses shall be defiled until evening.
quod ambulat super manus ex cunctis animantibus quae incedunt quadrupedia inmundum erit qui tetigerit morticina eorum polluetur usque ad vesperum
28 And he that shall carry such carcasses, shall wash his clothes, and shall be unclean until evening: because all these things are unclean to you.
et qui portaverit huiuscemodi cadavera lavabit vestimenta sua et inmundus erit usque ad vesperum quia omnia haec inmunda sunt vobis
29 These also shall be reckoned among unclean things, of all that move upon the earth, the weasel, and the mouse, and the crocodile, every one according to their kind:
hoc quoque inter polluta reputabitur de his quae moventur in terra mustela et mus et corcodillus singula iuxta genus suum
30 The shrew, and the chameleon, and the stello, and the lizard, and the mole:
migale et cameleon et stelio ac lacerta et talpa
31 All these are unclean. He that toucheth their carcasses shall be unclean until the evening.
omnia haec inmunda sunt qui tetigerit morticina eorum inmundus erit usque ad vesperum
32 And upon what thing soever any of their carcasses shall fall, it shall be defiled, whether it be a vessel of wood, or a garment, or skins or haircloths; or any thing in which work is done, they shall be dipped in water, and shall be unclean until the evening, and so afterwards shall be clean.
et super quod ceciderit quicquam de morticinis eorum polluetur tam vas ligneum et vestimentum quam pelles et cilicia et in quocumque fit opus tinguentur aqua et polluta erunt usque ad vesperum et sic postea mundabuntur
33 But an earthen vessel, into which any of these shall fall, shall be defiled, and therefore is to be broken.
vas autem fictile in quo horum quicquam intro ceciderit polluetur et idcirco frangendum est
34 Any meat which you eat, if water from such a vessel be poured upon it, shall be unclean; and every liquor that is drunk out of any such vessel, shall be unclean.
omnis cibus quem comeditis si fusa fuerit super eum aqua inmundus erit et omne liquens quod bibitur de universo vase inmundum erit
35 And upon whatsoever thing any of these dead beasts shall fall, it shall be unclean: whether it be oven, or pots with feet, they shall be destroyed, and shall be unclean.
et quicquid de morticinis istiusmodi ceciderit super illud inmundum erit sive clibani sive cytropodes destruentur et inmundi erunt
36 But fountains and cisterns, and all gatherings together of waters shall be clean. He that toucheth their carcasses shall be defiled.
fontes vero et cisternae et omnis aquarum congregatio munda erit qui morticinum eorum tetigerit polluetur
37 If it fall upon seed corn, it shall not defile it.
si ceciderint super sementem non polluent eam
38 But if any man pour water upon the seed, and afterwards it be touched by the carcasses, it shall be forthwith defiled.
sin autem quispiam aqua sementem perfuderit et postea morticinis tacta fuerit ilico polluetur
39 If any beast die, of which it is lawful for you to eat, he that toucheth the carcass thereof, shall be unclean until the evening:
si mortuum fuerit animal quod licet vobis comedere qui cadaver eius tetigerit inmundus erit usque ad vesperum
40 And he that eateth or carrieth any thing thereof, shall wash his clothes, and shall be unclean until the evening.
et qui comederit ex eo quippiam sive portaverit lavabit vestimenta sua et inmundus erit usque ad vesperum
41 All that creepeth upon the earth shall be abominable, neither shall it be taken for meat.
omne quod reptat super terram abominabile erit nec adsumetur in cibum
42 Whatsoever goeth upon the breast on four feet, or hath many feet, or traileth on the earth, you shall not eat, because it is abominable.
quicquid super pectus quadrupes graditur et multos habet pedes sive per humum trahitur non comedetis quia abominabile est
43 Do not defile your souls, nor touch aught thereof, lest you be unclean,
nolite contaminare animas vestras nec tangatis quicquam eorum ne inmundi sitis
44 For I am the Lord your God: be holy because I am holy. Defile not your souls by any creeping thing, that moveth upon the earth.
ego enim sum Dominus Deus vester sancti estote quoniam et ego sanctus sum ne polluatis animas vestras in omni reptili quod movetur super terram
45 For I am the Lord, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that I might be your God.
ego sum Dominus qui eduxi vos de terra Aegypti ut essem vobis in Deum sancti eritis quia et ego sanctus sum
46 You shall be holy, because I am holy. This is the law of beasts and fowls, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and creepeth on the earth:
ista est lex animantium et volucrum et omnis animae viventis quae movetur in aqua et reptat in terra
47 That you may know the differences of the clean, and unclean, and know what you ought to eat, and what to refuse.
ut differentias noveritis mundi et inmundi et sciatis quid comedere et quid respuere debeatis
