Leviticus 11

1 And the Lord spoke unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,

After, the Lord spake vnto Moses and to Aaron, saying vnto them,

2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye may eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.

Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say, These are the beastes which yee shall eate, among all the beasts that are on the earth.

3 Whatsoever divideth the hoof, and is cloven-footed, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that may ye eat.

Whatsoeuer parteth the hoofe, and is clouen footed, and cheweth the cudde, among the beastes, that shall ye eate.

4 But these shall ye not eat, of those that chew the cud, or of those that divide the hoof: the camel; because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.

But of them that chewe the cud, or deuide the hoofe onely, of them yee shall not eate: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, and deuideth not ye hoofe, he shall be vncleane vnto you.

5 And the cony; because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.

Likewise the conie, because he cheweth the cud and deuideth not the hoofe, he shall bee vncleane to you.

6 And the hare; because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.

Also the hare, because he cheweth the cud, and deuideth not the hoofe, he shalbe vncleane to you.

7 And the swine; because he divideth the hoof, and is cloven-footed, but he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean unto you.

And the swine, because he parteth ye hoofe and is clouen footed, but cheweth not the cud, he shalbe vncleane to you.

8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcass shall ye not touch; they are unclean unto you.

Of their flesh shall yee not eate, and their carkeise shall yee not touch: for they shall bee vncleane to you.

9 These may ye eat, of all that are in the waters: all that have fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them may ye eat.

These shall ye eate, of all that are in the waters: whatsoeuer hath finnes and skales in ye waters, in the seas, or in the riuers, them shall ye eate.

10 But all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of whatever moveth in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, shall be an abomination unto you:

But all that haue not finnes nor skales in the seas, or in the riuers, of all that moueth in the waters, and of al liuing things that are in the waters, they shalbe an abomination vnto you.

11 And an abomination shall they remain unto you; of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcasses ye shall have in abomination.

They, I say, shalbe an abomination to you: ye shall not eate of their flesh, but shall abhorre their carkeis.

12 Whatsoever hath not fins and scales in the waters, shall be an abomination unto you.

Whatsoeuer hath not fins nor skales in the waters, that shalbe abomination vnto you.

13 And these shall ye have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: The eagle, and the ossifrage, and the osprey,

These shall ye haue also in abomination among the foules, they shall not be eaten: for they are an abomination, the eagle, and the goshauke, and the osprey:

14 And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;

Also the vultur, and the kite after his kinde,

15 Every raven after his kind:

And all rauens after their kinde:

16 And the ostrich, and the night-hawk, and the cuckoo, and the hawk after his kind;

The ostrich also, and the night crowe, and the seameaw, and the hauke after his kinde:

17 And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,

The litle owle also, and the connorant, and the great owle.

18 And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier-eagle,

Also the redshanke and the pelicane, and the swanne:

19 And the stork, the heron after his kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.

The storke also, the heron after his kinde, and the lapwing, and the backe:

20 All flying insects that walk upon four feet, shall be an abomination unto you.

Also euery foule that creepeth and goeth vpon all foure, such shalbe an abomination vnto you.

21 Yet these may ye eat, among all the flying insects that walk on four feet, which have spring-legs above their feet, to leap therewith upon the earth.

Yet these shall ye eate: of euery foule that creepeth, and goeth vpon all foure which haue their feete and legs all of one to leape withal vpon the earth,

22 These of them may ye eat: The locust after its kind, and the sol'am after its kind, and the chargol after its kind, and the chagab after its kind.

Of them ye shall eate these, the grashopper after his kinde, and the solean after his kinde, the hargol after his kinde, and the hagab after his kind.

23 But all flying insects, which have four feet, shall be an abomination unto you;

But al other foules that creepe and haue foure feete, they shalbe abomination vnto you.

24 And through these shall ye be rendered unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcass of them shall be unclean until the evening;

For by such ye shalbe polluted: whosoeuer toucheth their carkeis, shalbe vncleane vnto the euening.

25 And whosoever beareth aught of their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.

Whosoeuer also beareth of their carkeis, shall wash his clothes, and be vncleane vntil euen.

26 Every species of beast, which divideth the hoof and is not cloven-footed nor cheweth the cud, is unclean unto you: every one that toucheth the same shall be unclean.

Euery beast that hath clawes deuided, and is not clouen footed, nor cheweth the cud, such shalbe vncleane vnto you: euery one that toucheth them, shalbe vncleane.

27 And all that walk upon their paws, among all manner of beasts that walk on four feet, are unclean unto you; whosoever toucheth their carcass shall be unclean until the evening.

And whatsoeuer goeth vpon his pawes among all maner beastes that goeth on all foure, such shalbe vncleane vnto you: who so doth touch their carkeis shalbe vncleane vntil the euen.

28 And he that beareth their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening: unclean shall they be unto you.

And he that beareth their carkeis, shall wash his clothes, and be vncleane vntill the euen: for such shalbe vncleane vnto you.

29 And these shall be unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth: The weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after its kind,

Also these shalbe vncleane to you amog the things that creepe and moue vpon the earth, the weasell, and the mouse, and the frog, after his kinde:

30 And the hedgehog, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.

Also the rat, and the lizard, and the chameleon, and the stellio, and the molle.

31 These shall be unclean to you among all that creep: whosoever doth touch them, when they are dead, shall be unclean until the evening.

These shall be vncleane to you among all that creepe: whosoeuer doeth touch them when they be dead, shalbe vncleane vntil the euen.

32 And every thing upon which any part of them, when they are dead, doth fall, shall be unclean; whether it be any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, every vessel wherewith any work can be done, must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening, when it shall be clean.

Also whatsoeuer any of the dead carkeises of them doth fall vpon, shalbe vncleane, whether it be vessel of wood, or rayment, or skinne, or sacke: whatsoeuer vessel it be that is occupied, it shalbe put in the water as vncleane vntil the euen, and so be purified.

33 And every earthen vessel whereinto any part of them falleth, whatsoever is in it shall be unclean; and itself shall ye break.

But euery earthen vessel, whereinto any of them falleth, whatsoeuer is within it shalbe vncleane, and ye shall breake it.

34 All kinds of food which may be eaten, on which water cometh, shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drunk, shall be rendered unclean in every vessel.

Al meate also that shalbe eaten, if any such water come vpon it, shalbe vncleane: and all drinke that shalbe drunke in al such vessels shalbe vncleane.

35 And every thing whereupon any part of their carcass falleth, shall be unclean; an oven, or ranges for pots, shall be broken down, they are unclean; and unclean shall they be unto you.

And euery thing that their carkeis fall vpon, shalbe vncleane: the fornais or the pot shalbe broken: for they are vncleane, and shalbe vncleane vnto you.

36 Nevertheless, a fountain, or pit, receptacles for water, shall be clean; but he that toucheth their carcass shall be unclean.

Yet the fountaines and welles where there is plentie of water shalbe cleane: but that which toucheth their carkeises shalbe vncleane.

37 And if any part of their carcass fall upon any sowing-seed which hath been sown, it shall be clean.

And if there fal of their dead carkeis vpon any seede, which vseth to be sowe, it shalbe cleane.

38 But if any water be put upon the seed, and any part of their carcass fall thereon, it shall be unclean unto you.

But if any water be powred vpon ye seede, and there fal of their dead carkeis thereon, it shall be vncleane vnto you.

39 And if any cattle die, which is allowed to you as food: he that toucheth its carcass shall be unclean until the evening.

If also any beast, whereof ye may eate, die, he that toucheth the carkeis thereof shall be vncleane vntil the euen.

40 And he that eateth of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening; he also that beareth its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.

And he that eateth of the carkeis of it, shall wash his clothes and be vncleane vntil the euen: he also that beareth the carkeis of it, shall wash his clothes, and be vncleane vntil the euen.

41 And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth is an abomination, it shall not be eaten.

Euery creeping thing therefore that creepeth vpon the earth shalbe an abomination, and not be eaten.

42 Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and whatsoever goeth upon four feet, down to whatsoever hath many feet among all creeping things that creep upon the earth, shall ye not eat; for they are an abomination.

Whatsoeuer goeth vpon the breast, and whatsoeuer goeth vpon al foure, or that hath many feete among all creeping thinges that creepe vpon the earth, ye shall not eate of them, for they shalbe abomination.

43 Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth; and ye shall not make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.

Ye shall not pollute your selues with any thing that creepeth, neither make your selues vncleane with them, neither defile your selues thereby: ye shall not, I say, be defiled by them,

44 For I am the Lord your God; ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

For I am the Lord your God: be sanctified therefore, and be holy, for I am holy, and defile not your selues with any creeping thing, that creepeth vpon the earth.

45 For I am the Lord that have brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God; ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.

For I am the Lord that brought you out of the lande of Egypt, to be your God, and that you should be holy, for I am holy.

46 This is the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth:

This is the law of beasts, and of foules, and of euery liuing thing that moueth in the waters, and of euery thing that creepeth vpon the earth:

47 To distinguish between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.

That there may be a difference betweene the vncleane and cleane, and betweene the beast that may be eaten, and the beast that ought not to be eaten.
