Leviticus 11:3-29

³ye shall eat all things among beasts that have the claw parted, and cheweth the cud;

⁴soothly whatever thing cheweth cud, and hath a claw, but parteth not it, as a camel, and other beasts, ye shall not eat it, and ye shall areckon it among unclean things.

⁵A coney, which cheweth cud, and parteth not the claw, is unclean;

⁶and an hare, for also he cheweth cud, but parteth not the claw;

⁷and a swine, that cheweth not the cud, though he parteth the claw.

⁸Ye shall not eat the flesh of these beasts, neither ye shall touch their dead bodies, for those or they be unclean to you.

⁹Also these things be that be engendered in waters, and it is leaveful to eat; ye shall eat all things that have fins and scales, as well in the sea, as in the fresh floods, and standing waters;

¹⁰soothly whatever thing of them that be moved and live in waters, hath not fins and scales, shall be abominable, and loathsome to you;

¹¹and ye shall not eat the flesh of those or them, and ye shall eschew their bodies dead by themselves.

¹²All things in the waters that have not fins and scales, shall be polluted.

¹³These things be of fowls which ye shall not eat, and shall be eschewed or shunned of you; an eagle, and a gripe, and an aliet,

¹⁴and a kite, and a vulture by his kind;

¹⁵and all the kind of ravens by his likeness;

¹⁶a struthio, and a night crow, and a lari, or a coot, and a hawk by his kind;

¹⁷an owl, and a dipper, and ciconia;

¹⁸a swan, and a cormorant, and a pelican;

¹⁹a falcon, and a jay by his kind; and a lapwing, and a rearmouse, or a bat.

²⁰All thing of fowls or insects that goeth on four feet, shall be abominable to you;

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;
