Leviticus 11
1 And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying unto them,
And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
2 'Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, This [is] the beast which ye do eat out of all the beasts which [are] on the earth:
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the animals which ye shall eat of all the beasts which are on the earth.
3 any dividing a hoof, and cleaving the cleft of the hoofs, bringing up the cud, among the beasts, it ye do eat.
Whatever hath cloven hoofs, and feet quite split open, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts — that shall ye eat.
4 'Only, this ye do not eat — of those bringing up the cud, and of those dividing the hoof — the camel, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof not dividing — it [is] unclean to you;
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;
5 and the rabbit, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof it divideth not — unclean it [is] to you;
and the rock-badger, for it cheweth the cud, but hath not cloven hoofs — it shall be unclean unto you;
6 and the hare, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof hath not divided — unclean it [is] to you;
and the hare, for it cheweth the cud, but hath not cloven hoofs — it shall be unclean unto you;
7 and the sow, though it is dividing the hoof, and cleaving the cleft of the hoof, yet the cud it bringeth not up — unclean it [is] to you.
and the swine, for it hath cloven hoofs, and feet quite split open, but it cheweth not the cud — it shall be unclean unto you.
8 'Of their flesh ye do not eat, and against their carcase ye do not come — unclean they [are] to you.
Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch: they shall be unclean unto you.
9 'This ye do eat of all which [are] in the waters; any one that hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the brooks, them ye do eat;
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;
10 and any one that hath not fins and scales in the seas, and in the brooks, of any teeming creature of the waters, and of any creature which liveth, which [is] in the waters — an abomination they [are] to you;
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.
11 yea, an abomination they are to you; of their flesh ye do not eat, and their carcase ye abominate.
They shall be even an abomination unto you: of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase ye shall have in abomination.
12 'Any one that hath not fins and scales in the waters — an abomination it [is] to you.
Whatever in the waters hath no fins and scales, that shall be an abomination unto you.
13 'And these ye do abominate of the fowl; they are not eaten, an abomination they [are]: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
And these shall ye have in abomination of the fowls; they shall not be eaten; an abomination shall they be: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the sea-eagle,
14 and the vulture, and the kite after its kind,
and the falcon, and the kite, after its kind;
15 every raven after its kind,
every raven after its kind;
16 and the owl, and the night-hawk, and the cuckoo, and the hawk after its kind,
and the female ostrich and the male ostrich, and the sea-gull, and the hawk, after its kind;
17 and the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
and the owl, and the gannet, and the ibis,
18 and the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
and the swan, and the pelican, and the carrion vulture,
19 and the stork, the heron after its kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
and the stork; the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.
20 'Every teeming creature which is flying, which is going on four — an abomination it [is] to you.
Every winged crawling thing that goeth upon all four shall be an abomination unto you.
21 'Only — this ye do eat of any teeming thing which is flying, which is going on four, which hath legs above its feet, to move with them on the earth;
Yet these shall ye eat of every winged crawling thing that goeth upon all four: those which have legs above their feet with which to leap upon the earth.
22 these of them ye do eat: the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the beetle after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind;
These shall ye eat of them: the arbeh after its kind, and the solam after its kind, and the hargol after its kind, and the hargab after its kind.
23 and every teeming thing which is flying, which hath four feet — an abomination it [is] to you.
But every winged crawling thing that hath four feet shall be an abomination unto you.
24 'And by these ye are made unclean, any one who is coming against their carcase is unclean till the evening;
And by these ye shall make yourselves unclean; whoever toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.
25 and anyone who is lifting up [aught] of their carcase doth wash his garments, and hath been unclean till the evening: —
And whoever carrieth [ought] of their carcase shall wash his garments, and be unclean until the even.
26 even every beast which is dividing the hoof, and is not cloven-footed, and the cud is not bringing up — unclean they [are] to you; any one who is coming against them is unclean.
Every beast that hath cloven hoofs, but not feet quite split open, nor cheweth the cud, shall be unclean unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.
27 'And any one going on its paws, among all the beasts which are going on four — unclean they [are] to you; any one who is coming against their carcase is unclean until the evening;
And whatever goeth on its paws, among all manner of beasts that go upon all four, those are unclean unto you: whoever toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.
28 and he who is lifting up their carcase doth wash his garments, and hath been unclean until the evening — unclean they [are] to you.
And he that carrieth their carcase shall wash his garments, and be unclean until the even: they shall be unclean unto you.
29 'And this [is] to you the unclean among the teeming things which are teeming on the earth: the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after its kind,
And these shall be unclean unto you among the crawling things which crawl on the earth: the mole, and the field-mouse, and the lizard, after its kind;
30 and the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole;
and the groaning lizard, and the great red lizard, and the climbing lizard, and the chomet, and the chameleon.
31 these [are] the unclean to you among all which are teeming; any one who is coming against them in their death is unclean till the evening.
These shall be unclean unto you among all that crawl: whoever toucheth them when they are dead, shall be unclean until the even.
32 'And anything on which any one of them falleth, in their death, is unclean, of any vessel of wood or garment or skin or sack, any vessel in which work is done is brought into water, and hath been unclean till the evening, then it hath been clean;
And on whatever any of them when they are dead doth fall, it shall be unclean; all vessels of wood, or garment, or skin, or sack, every vessel wherewith work is done — it shall be put into water, and be unclean until the even; then shall it be clean.
33 and any earthen vessel, into the midst of which [any] one of them falleth, all that [is] in its midst is unclean, and it ye do break.
And every earthen vessel into which [any] of them falleth — whatever is in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.
34 'Of all the food which is eaten, that on which cometh [such] water, is unclean, and all drink which is drunk in any [such] vessel is unclean;
All food that is eaten on which [such] water hath come shall be unclean; and all drink that is drunk shall be unclean, in every [such] vessel.
35 and anything on which [any] of their carcase falleth is unclean (oven or double pots), it is broken down, unclean they [are], yea, unclean they are to you.
And everything where upon [any part] of their carcase falleth shall be unclean; oven and hearth shall be broken down: they are unclean, and shall be unclean unto you.
36 'Only — a fountain or pit, a collection of water, is clean, but that which is coming against their carcase is unclean;
Nevertheless, a spring or a well, a quantity of water, shall be clean. But he that toucheth their carcase shall be unclean.
37 and when [any] of their carcase falleth on any sown seed which is sown — it [is] clean;
And if any part of their carcase fall upon any sowing-seed which is to be sown, it shall be clean;
38 and when water is put on the seed, and [any] of its carcase hath fallen on it — unclean it [is] to you.
but if water have been put on the seed, and any part of their carcase fall thereon, it shall be unclean unto you.
39 'And when any of the beasts which are to you for food dieth, he who is coming against its carcase is unclean till the evening;
And if any beast which is to you for food die, he that toucheth the carcase thereof shall be unclean until the even.
40 and he who is eating of its carcase doth wash his garments, and hath been unclean till the evening; and he who is lifting up its carcase doth wash his garments, and hath been unclean till the evening.
And he that eateth of its carcase shall wash his garments, and be unclean until the even: he also that carrieth its carcase shall wash his garments, and be unclean until the even.
41 'And every teeming thing which is teeming on the earth is an abomination, it is not eaten;
And every crawling thing which crawleth on the earth shall be an abomination; it shall not be eaten.
42 any thing going on the belly, and any going on four, unto every multiplier of feet, to every teeming thing which is teeming on the earth — ye do not eat them, for they [are] an abomination;
Whatever goeth on the belly, and whatever goeth on all four, and all that have a great many feet, of every manner of crawling thing which crawleth on the earth — these ye shall not eat; for they are an abomination.
43 ye do not make yourselves abominable with any teeming thing which is teeming, nor do ye make yourselves unclean with them, so that ye have been unclean thereby.
Ye shall not make yourselves abominable through any crawling thing which crawleth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.
44 'For I [am] Jehovah your God, and ye have sanctified yourselves, and ye have been holy, for I [am] holy; and ye do not defile your persons with any teeming thing which is creeping on the earth;
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.
45 for I [am] Jehovah who am bringing you up out of the land of Egypt to become your God; and ye have been holy, for I [am] holy.
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.
46 'This [is] a law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature which is moving in the waters, and of every creature which is teeming on the earth,
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;
47 to make separation between the unclean and the pure, and between the beast that is eaten, and the beast that is not eaten.'
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.
