1 Olúwa sọ fún Mose àti Aaroni pé,
The LORD spoke again to Moses and Aaron, telling them,
2 “Ẹ sọ fún àwọn ara Israẹli pé, ‘Nínú gbogbo ẹranko tí ń gbé lórí ilẹ̀, àwọn wọ̀nyí ni ẹ le jẹ.
“Say to the Israelites, ‘Of all the beasts of the earth, these ones you may eat:
3 Gbogbo ẹranko tí pátákò ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ bá là tí ó sì ń jẹ àpọ̀jẹ.
You may eat any animal that has a split hoof completely divided and that chews the cud.
4 “‘Àwọn mìíràn wà tó ń jẹ àpọ̀jẹ nìkan. Àwọn mìíràn wà tó jẹ́ pé pátákò ẹsẹ̀ wọn nìkan ni ó là, ìwọ̀nyí ni ẹ kò gbọdọ̀ jẹ fún àpẹẹrẹ bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé ìbákasẹ ń jẹ àpọ̀jẹ kò ya pátákò ẹsẹ̀, àìmọ́ ni èyí jẹ́.
But of those that only chew the cud or only have a divided hoof, you are not to eat the following: The camel, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you.

And the pig, though it has a split hoof completely divided, does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you.

When one of them dies and falls on something, that article becomes unclean; any article of wood, clothing, leather, sackcloth, or any implement used for work must be rinsed with water and will remain unclean until evening; then it will be clean.

Every creature that moves along the ground is detestable; it must not be eaten.

For I am the LORD your God; consecrate yourselves, therefore, and be holy, because I am holy. You must not defile yourselves by any creature that crawls along the ground.
45 Èmi ni Olúwa tí ó mú yín jáde láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá láti jẹ́ Ọlọ́run yín torí náà, ẹ jẹ́ mímọ́ torí pé mímọ́ ni èmi.
For I am the LORD, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt so that I would be your God; therefore be holy, because I am holy.
46 “‘Àwọn wọ̀nyí ni ìlànà fún ẹranko, ẹyẹ, gbogbo ẹ̀dá alààyè tí ń gbé inú omi àti àwọn ẹ̀dá tí ó ń rìn lórí ilẹ̀.
This is the law regarding animals, birds, all living creatures that move in the water, and all creatures that crawl along the ground.

You must distinguish between the unclean and the clean, between animals that may be eaten and those that may not.’”
