Leviticus 11:16-27

¹⁶the horned owl, the screech owl, the gull, any kind of hawk,

¹⁷the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl,

¹⁸the white owl, the desert owl, the osprey,

¹⁹the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, and the bat.

²⁰“‘All flying insects that walk on all fours are an abomination to you.

²¹Yet you may eat these: of all winged creeping things that go on all fours, which have long, jointed legs for hopping on the earth.

²²Even of these you may eat: any kind of locust, any kind of katydid, any kind of cricket, and any kind of grasshopper.

²³But all winged creeping things which have four feet are an abomination to you.

²⁴“‘By these you will become unclean: whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening.

²⁵Whoever carries any part of their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.

²⁶“‘Every animal which has a split hoof that isn’t completely divided, or doesn’t chew the cud, is unclean to you. Everyone who touches them shall be unclean.

²⁷Whatever goes on its paws, amongst all animals that go on all fours, they are unclean to you. Whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
