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.
