Leviticus 11:21-34

²¹soothly whatever thing goeth on four feet, but hath longer hips behind, by which it skippeth on the earth, ye shall eat;

²²as is a bruchus, that is, the fruit of locusts before it hath wings, in his kind, and accatus, that is, the fruit of locusts when it beginneth to have wings, and ophimachus, that is, a foul enemy to serpents, and a locust, all by their kind.

²³Forsooth whatever thing of birds or insects hath four feet only, it shall be abominable to you;

²⁴and whoever toucheth their bodies dead by themselves, shall be polluted, or defouled, and shall be unclean till to eventide;

²⁵and if it is need, that he bear any dead thing of these or them, he shall wash his clothes, and he shall be unclean till to the going down of the sun.

²⁶Soothly each beast that hath a claw, but parteth not it, neither cheweth cud, shall be unclean; and whatever thing toucheth it, shall be defouled.

²⁷That that goeth on hands, of all beasts that go on four feet, shall be unclean; he that toucheth their bodies dead by themselves, shall be defouled till to eventide;

²⁸and he, that beareth such dead bodies, shall wash his clothes, and he shall be unclean till to eventide; for all these things be unclean to you.

²⁹Also these things shall be areckoned among defouled things, of these things that be moved on earth; a weasel, and a mouse, and a crocodile, each after his kind;

³⁰a migale, a chameleon, and a stellion, and a lacert, and a mouldwarp.

³¹All these be unclean; he that toucheth their bodies dead by them-selves, shall be unclean till to eventide;

³²and that thing shall be defouled, on which anything of their bodies dead by themselves falleth, as well a vessel of wood, and a cloth, as skins, or pilches, either hair-shirts; and in whatever thing work is made, it shall be dipped in water, and those things shall be defouled till to eventide, and so afterward they shall be cleansed.

³³Soothly a vessel of earth, in which anything of these falleth within, shall be defouled, and therefore it shall be broken.

³⁴Each meat, that ye shall eat, shall be unclean, if water of such a vessel is poured out thereon; and each flowing thing, that is drunken of such a vessel, shall be unclean;
