Leviticus 11:12-41

¹²And all things that have not fins or scales of those that are in the waters, these are an abomination to you.

¹³And these are the things which you° shall abhor of birds, and they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle and the ossifrage, and the sea-eagle.

¹⁴And the vulture, and the kite, and the like to it;

¹⁵and the sparrow, and the owl, and the cormorant, and the like to it:

¹⁶and every raven, and the birds like it, and the hawk and his like,

¹⁷and the night-raven and the cormorant and the stork,

¹⁸and the red-bill, and the pelican, and swan,

¹⁹and the heron, and the lapwing, and the like to it, and the hoopoe and the bat.

²⁰And all winged creatures that creep, which go upon four feet, are abominations to you.

²¹But these you° shall eat of the creeping winged animals, which go upon four feet, which have legs above their feet, to leap with on the earth.

²²And these of them you° shall eat: the caterpillar and his like, and the attacus and his like, and the cantharus and his like, and the locust and his like.

²³Every creeping thing from amongst the birds, which has four feet, is an abomination to you.

²⁴And by these you° shall be defiled; every one that touches their carcases shall be unclean till the evening.

²⁵And every one that takes of their dead bodies shall wash his garments, and shall be unclean till the evening.

²⁶And whichever amongst the beasts divides the hoof and makes claws, and does not chew the cud, shall be unclean to you; every one that touches their dead bodies shall be unclean till evening.

²⁷And every one amongst all the wild beasts that moves upon its fore feet, which goes on all four, is unclean to you; every one that touches their dead bodies shall be unclean till evening.

²⁸And he that takes of their dead bodies shall wash his garments, and shall be unclean till evening: these are unclean to you.

²⁹And these are unclean to you of reptiles upon the earth, the weasel, and the mouse, and the lizard,

³⁰the ferret, and the chameleon, and the evet, and the newt, and the mole.

³¹These are unclean to you of all the reptiles which are on the earth; every one who touches their carcases shall be unclean till evening.

³²And on whatever one of their dead bodies shall fall it shall be unclean; whatever wooden vessel, or garment, or skin, or sack it may be, every vessel in which work should be done, shall be dipped in water, and shall be unclean till evening; and then it shall be clean.

³³And every earthen vessel into which one of these things shall fall, whatever is inside it, shall be unclean, and it shall be broken.

³⁴And all food that is eaten, on which water shall come from such a vessel, shall be unclean; and every beverage which is drunk in any such vessel, shall be unclean.

³⁵And every thing on which there shall fall of their dead bodies shall be unclean; ovens and stands for jars shall be broken down: these are unclean, and they shall be unclean to you.

³⁶Only if the water be of fountains of water, or a pool, or confluence of water, it shall be clean; but he that touches their carcases shall be unclean.

³⁷And if one of their carcases should fall upon any sowing seed which shall be sown, it shall be clean.

³⁸But if water be poured on any seed, and one of their dead bodies fall upon it, it is unclean to you.

³⁹And if one of the cattle die, which it is lawful for you to eat, he that touches their carcases shall be unclean till evening.

⁴⁰And he that eats of their carcases shall wash his garments, and be unclean till evening; and he that carries any of their carcases shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean till evening.

⁴¹And every reptile that creeps on the earth, this shall be an abomination to you; it shall not be eaten.
