Leviticus [Pertaining to Levites] 11:7-22

⁷The pig, because he has a split hoof, and is cloven-footed, but does not chew the cud, he is unclean to you.

⁸Of their meat you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch; they are unclean to you.

⁹“‘These you may eat of all that are in the waters: whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, that you may eat.

¹⁰All that don’t have fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of all the living creatures that are in the waters, they are detestable to you,

¹¹and you detest them. You shall not eat of their meat, and you shall detest their carcasses.

¹²Whatever has no fins nor scales in the waters, that is detestable to you.

¹³“‘These you shall detest among the birds; they shall not be eaten, they are detestable: the eagle, and the vulture, and the black vulture,

¹⁴and the red kite, any kind of black kite,

¹⁵any kind of raven,

¹⁶the horned owl, the screech owl, and 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 detestable to you.

²¹Yet you may eat these: of all winged creeping things that go on all fours, which have legs above their feet, with which to hop 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.
