BSB

The LORD spoke again to Moses and Aaron, telling them,

BSB

“Say to the Israelites, ‘Of all the beasts of the earth, these ones you may eat:

BSB

You may eat any animal that has a split hoof completely divided and that chews the cud.

BSB

But of those that only chew the cud or only have a divided hoof, you are not to eat the following: The camel, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you.

BSB

The rock badger, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you.

BSB

The rabbit, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you.

BSB

And the pig, though it has a split hoof completely divided, does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you.

BSB

You must not eat their meat or touch their carcasses; they are unclean for you.

BSB

Of all the creatures that live in the water, whether in the seas or in the streams, you may eat anything with fins and scales.

BSB

But the following among all the teeming life and creatures in the water are detestable to you: everything in the seas or streams that does not have fins and scales.

BSB

They shall be an abomination to you; you must not eat their meat, and you must detest their carcasses.

BSB

Everything in the water that does not have fins and scales shall be detestable to you.

BSB

Additionally, you are to detest the following birds, and they must not be eaten because they are detestable: the eagle, the bearded vulture, the black vulture,

BSB

the kite, any kind of falcon,

BSB

any kind of raven,

BSB

the ostrich, the screech owl, the gull, any kind of hawk,

BSB

the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl,

BSB

the white owl, the desert owl, the osprey,

BSB

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

BSB

All flying insects that walk on all fours are detestable to you.

BSB

However, you may eat the following kinds of flying insects that walk on all fours: those having jointed legs above their feet for hopping on the ground.

BSB

Of these you may eat any kind of locust, katydid, cricket, or grasshopper.

BSB

All other flying insects that have four legs are detestable to you.

BSB

These creatures will make you unclean. Whoever touches their carcasses will be unclean until evening,

BSB

and whoever picks up one of their carcasses must wash his clothes, and he will be unclean until evening.

BSB

Every animal with hooves not completely divided or that does not chew the cud is unclean for you. Whoever touches any of them will be unclean.

BSB

All the four-footed animals that walk on their paws are unclean for you; whoever touches their carcasses will be unclean until evening,

BSB

and anyone who picks up a carcass must wash his clothes, and he will be unclean until evening. They are unclean for you.

BSB

The following creatures that move along the ground are unclean for you: the mole, the mouse, any kind of great lizard,

BSB

the gecko, the monitor lizard, the common lizard, the skink, and the chameleon.

BSB

These animals are unclean for you among all the crawling creatures. Whoever touches them when they are dead shall be unclean until evening.

BSB

When one of them dies and falls on something, that article becomes unclean; any article of wood, clothing, leather, sackcloth, or any implement used for work must be rinsed with water and will remain unclean until evening; then it will be clean.

BSB

If any of them falls into a clay pot, everything in it will be unclean; you must break the pot.

BSB

Any food coming into contact with water from that pot will be unclean, and any drink in such a container will be unclean.

BSB

Anything upon which one of their carcasses falls will be unclean. If it is an oven or cooking pot, it must be smashed; it is unclean and will remain unclean for you.

BSB

Nevertheless, a spring or cistern containing water will remain clean, but one who touches a carcass in it will be unclean.

BSB

If a carcass falls on any seed for sowing, the seed is clean;

BSB

but if water has been put on the seed and a carcass falls on it, it is unclean for you.

BSB

If an animal that you may eat dies, anyone who touches the carcass will be unclean until evening.

BSB

Whoever eats from the carcass must wash his clothes and will be unclean until evening, and anyone who picks up the carcass must wash his clothes and will be unclean until evening.

BSB

Every creature that moves along the ground is detestable; it must not be eaten.

BSB

Do not eat any creature that moves along the ground, whether it crawls on its belly or walks on four or more feet; for such creatures are detestable.

BSB

Do not defile yourselves by any crawling creature; do not become unclean or defiled by them.

BSB

For I am the LORD your God; consecrate yourselves, therefore, and be holy, because I am holy. You must not defile yourselves by any creature that crawls along the ground.

BSB

For I am the LORD, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt so that I would be your God; therefore be holy, because I am holy.

BSB

This is the law regarding animals, birds, all living creatures that move in the water, and all creatures that crawl along the ground.

BSB

You must distinguish between the unclean and the clean, between animals that may be eaten and those that may not.’”
