Leviticus 11
1 And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,
上主訓示梅瑟和亞郎說：「
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the living things which ye shall eat among all the beasts that 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：
3 Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, [and] cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
凡走獸中偶蹄，有趾及反芻的，你們都可以吃。
4 Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that part the hoof: the camel, because he cheweth the cud but parteth not the hoof, he is 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；
5 And the coney, because he cheweth the cud but parteth not the hoof, he is unclean unto you.
岩貍，牠雖反芻，但偶蹄無趾，對你們仍是不潔的；

7 And the swine, because he parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, but cheweth not the cud, he is unclean unto you.
豬，牠雖有偶蹄，蹄雖有趾，卻不反芻，對你們仍是不潔的。
8 Of their flesh ye shall not eat, and their carcases ye shall not touch; they are unclean unto you.
這些走獸的肉，你們不可吃；牠們的屍體，也不可觸摸，因為對你們都是不潔的。
9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them 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 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of all the living creatures that are in the waters, they are 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 and they shall be an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, and their carcases ye shall have in abomination.

12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that is an abomination unto you.
水族中凡沒有鰭和鱗的，都是你們所當憎惡的。

但在有翅，四足爬行的昆蟲中，凡有腳以外，還有大腿，在地上能跳的，你們可以吃。
22 even these of them ye may eat; the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the cricket after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind.

不論是用腹部爬行的，或用四足爬行的，或多足的，凡是地上的爬蟲，你們都不可吃，因為都是可憎惡的。
43 Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.
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: sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that moveth 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 that 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 the beast, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon 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 living thing that may be eaten and the living thing that may not be eaten.
以便分辨潔與不潔，可吃與不可吃的生物。
