1	And the Lorde spake vnto Moyses and Aaron, and sayde vnto them:	And the LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying to them,	The LORD said to Moses and Aaron,
2	Speake vnto the chyldren of Israel, and say: These are the beastes whiche ye shall eate, among all the beastes that are on the earth.	“Speak to the people of Israel, saying, These are the living things that you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth.	“Say to the Israelites: ‘Of all the animals that live on land, these are the ones you may eat:
3	Whatsoeuer parteth the hoofe, and is clouen footed, and chaweth cud among the beastes, that shall ye eate.	Whatever parts the hoof and is cloven-footed and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat.	You may eat any animal that has a divided hoof and that chews the cud.
4	Neuerthelesse, these shall ye not eate, of them that chawe cud, and deuideth the hoofe: onlye as is the Camell, whiche chaweth cud, but he deuideth not the hoofe, therefore is he vncleane vnto you.	Nevertheless, among those that chew the cud or part the hoof, you shall not eat these: The camel, because it chews the cud but does not part the hoof, is unclean to you.	“’There are some that only chew the cud or only have a divided hoof, but you must not eat them. The camel, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is ceremonially unclean for you.
5	Euen so the Connie whiche chaweth the cud, but deuideth not the hoofe, he is vncleane to you.	And the rock badger, because it chews the cud but does not part the hoof, is unclean to you.	The hyrax, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you.
6	And the Hare, though he chaweth the cud, yet because he deuideth not ye hoofe, he is therefore vncleane to you.	And the hare, because it chews the cud but does not part the hoof, is unclean to you.	The rabbit, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you.
7	And agayne the Swyne, though he deuide the hoofe, and is clouen footed, yet he chaweth not the cud, he is vncleane to you.	And the pig, because it parts the hoof and is cloven-footed but does not chew the cud, is unclean to you.	And the pig, though it has a divided hoof, does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you.
8	Of their fleshe shall ye not eate, and their carkasses shall ye not touche: but let them be vncleane to you.	You shall not eat any of their flesh, and you shall not touch their carcasses; they are unclean to you.	You must not eat their meat or touch their carcasses; they are unclean for you.
9	These shall ye eate, of all that are in the waters: whatsoeuer hath finnes and skales in the waters, seas, and riuers, that shall ye eate.	“These you may eat, of all that are in the waters. Everything in the waters that has fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the rivers, you may eat.	“’Of all the creatures living in the water of the seas and the streams you may eat any that have fins and scales.
10	And all that haue not finnes nor skales in the sea and riuers, of all that moue and liue in the waters, let them be abhomination vnto you.	But anything in the seas or the rivers that does not have fins and scales, of the swarming creatures in the waters and of the living creatures that are in the waters, is detestable to you.	But all creatures in the seas or streams that do not have fins and scales—whether among all the swarming things or among all the other living creatures in the water—you are to regard as unclean.
11	They I say, shalbe an abhomination vnto you: ye shall not eate of their flesh, but abhorre their carkasses.	You shall regard them as detestable; you shall not eat any of their flesh, and you shall detest their carcasses.	And since you are to regard them as unclean, you must not eat their meat; you must regard their carcasses as unclean.
12	Let all that haue no finnes nor skales in the waters, be abhominable vnto you.	Everything in the waters that does not have fins and scales is detestable to you.	Anything living in the water that does not have fins and scales is to be regarded as unclean by you.
13	These are they whiche ye shall abhorre among the foules, and that ought not to be eaten, for they are an abhomination: The Egle, the Goshauke, and the Ospray,	“And these you shall detest among the birds; they shall not be eaten; they are detestable: the eagle, the bearded vulture, the black vulture,	“’These are the birds you are to regard as unclean and not eat because they are unclean: the eagle, the vulture, the black vulture,
14	The Uultur, and the Kyte after his kinde,	the kite, the falcon of any kind,	the red kite, any kind of black kite,
15	And all Rauens after their kinde,	every raven of any kind,	any kind of raven,
16	The Estrich, the nyght Crowe, the Coockowe, and the Hauke after his kynde,	the ostrich, the nighthawk, the sea gull, the hawk of any kind,	the horned owl, the screech owl, the gull, any kind of hawk,
17	The Falcon, the Cormorant, the great Owle,	the little owl, the cormorant, the short-eared owl,	the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl,
18	The Backe, the Pellicane, the Pye,	the barn owl, the tawny owl, the carrion vulture,	the white owl, the desert owl, the osprey,
19	The Storke, the Iay after his kinde, the Lapwyng, and the Swalowe.	the stork, the heron of any kind, the hoopoe, and the bat.	the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe and the bat.
20	Let all foules that creepe and go vpon all foure, be an abhomination vnto you.	“All winged insects that go on all fours are detestable to you.	“’All flying insects that walk on all fours are to be regarded as unclean by you.
21	Yet these may ye eate, of euery creepyng thyng that hath wynges, and go vpon foure feete : euen those that haue not bowynges aboue vpon their feete, to leape withall vpon the earth.	Yet among the winged insects that go on all fours you may eat those that have jointed legs above their feet, with which to hop on the ground.	There are, however, some flying insects that walk on all fours that you may eat: those that have jointed legs for hopping on the ground.
22	Euen these of them ye may eate: the Arbe after his kinde, the Selaam after his kinde, the Hargol after his kinde, and the Hagab after his kinde.	Of them you may eat: the locust of any kind, the bald locust of any kind, the cricket of any kind, and the grasshopper of any kind.	Of these you may eat any kind of locust, katydid, cricket or grasshopper.
23	All other foules that creepe and haue foure feete, shalbe abhomination vnto you.	But all other winged insects that have four feet are detestable to you.	But all other flying insects that have four legs you are to regard as unclean.
24	In such ye be vncleane: and whosoeuer toucheth the carkasse of them, shalbe vncleane vntyll the euen:	“And by these you shall become unclean. Whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening,	“’You will make yourselves unclean by these; whoever touches their carcasses will be unclean till evening.
25	And whosoeuer beareth the carkasse of them, shall washe his clothes, and be vncleane vntyll the euen.	and whoever carries any part of their carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening.	Whoever picks up one of their carcasses must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening.
26	And euery beast that hath hoofe, and is not clouen footed, nor chaweth cud, such are vncleane vnto you: euery one that toucheth them, shalbe vncleane.	Every animal that parts the hoof but is not cloven-footed or does not chew the cud is unclean to you. Everyone who touches them shall be unclean.	“’Every animal that does not have a divided hoof or that does not chew the cud is unclean for you; whoever touches the carcass of any of them will be unclean.
27	And whatsoeuer goeth vppon his pawes, among all maner beastes that go on all foure feete such are vncleane vnto you: and who so doth touche their carkasse shalbe vncleane vntyll the euen.	And all that walk on their paws, among the animals that go on all fours, are unclean to you. Whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening,	Of all the animals that walk on all fours, those that walk on their paws are unclean for you; whoever touches their carcasses will be unclean till evening.
28	And he that beareth the carkasse of them, shall washe his clothes, and be vncleane vntyll the euen: for such are vncleane vnto you.	and he who carries their carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening; they are unclean to you.	Anyone who picks up their carcasses must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening. These animals are unclean for you.
29	And let these also be vncleane to you, among the thynges that creepe vpon the earth: the Weasel, and the Mouse, and the Toade after ther kinde:	“And these are unclean to you among the swarming things that swarm on the ground: the mole rat, the mouse, the great lizard of any kind,	“’Of the animals that move along the ground, these are unclean for you: the weasel, the rat, any kind of great lizard,
30	The Hedhogge, the Stellio, the Lacert, the Snayle, and the Moole.	the gecko, the monitor lizard, the lizard, the sand lizard, and the chameleon.	the gecko, the monitor lizard, the wall lizard, the skink and the chameleon.
31	These are vncleane to you among all that creepe: whosoeuer doth touche them when they be dead, shalbe vncleane vntyll the euen.	These are unclean to you among all that swarm. Whoever touches them when they are dead shall be unclean until the evening.	Of all those that move along the ground, these are unclean for you. Whoever touches them when they are dead will be unclean till evening.
32	And whatsoeuer any of the dead carkasses of them doth fall vpon, shalbe vncleane, whether it be vessell of wood, or rayment, or skinne, or sacke, or whatsoeuer vessell it be that any worke is wrought in: and it must be plunged in the water, and it shalbe vncleane vntyll the euen, and so shall it be cleansed.	And anything on which any of them falls when they are dead shall be unclean, whether it is an article of wood or a garment or a skin or a sack, any article that is used for any purpose. It must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening; then it shall be clean.	When one of them dies and falls on something, that article, whatever its use, will be unclean, whether it is made of wood, cloth, hide or sackcloth. Put it in water; it will be unclean till evening, and then it will be clean.
33	All maner of earthen vessell wherinto any of them falleth, shalbe vncleane, with all that therein is, and it shalbe broken.	And if any of them falls into any earthenware vessel, all that is in it shall be unclean, and you shall break it.	If one of them falls into a clay pot, everything in it will be unclean, and you must break the pot.
34	All maner meate also that is vsed to be eaten, yf any such water come vpo it, shalbe vncleane: And all maner drynke that is vsed to be drunke in all maner such vessels, shalbe vncleane.	Any food in it that could be eaten, on which water comes, shall be unclean. And all drink that could be drunk from every such vessel shall be unclean.	Any food you are allowed to eat that has come into contact with water from any such pot is unclean, and any liquid that is drunk from such a pot is unclean.
35	And euery thyng that their carkasse falleth vpon, shalbe vncleane, whether it be ouen or kettle, let it be broken: For they are vncleane, and shalbe vncleane vnto you.	And everything on which any part of their carcass falls shall be unclean. Whether oven or stove, it shall be broken in pieces. They are unclean and shall remain unclean for you.	Anything that one of their carcasses falls on becomes unclean; an oven or cooking pot must be broken up. They are unclean, and you are to regard them as unclean.
36	Neuerthelater, yet the fountaynes, and welles, and collection of waters, shalbe cleane styll: but that which toucheth their carkasses, shalbe vncleane.	Nevertheless, a spring or a cistern holding water shall be clean, but whoever touches a carcass in them shall be unclean.	A spring, however, or a cistern for collecting water remains clean, but anyone who touches one of these carcasses is unclean.
37	If the dead carkasse of any such fall vpon any seede vsed to sowe, it shall yet be cleane styll:	And if any part of their carcass falls upon any seed grain that is to be sown, it is clean,	If a carcass falls on any seeds that are to be planted, they remain clean.
38	But and yf any water be powred vpon the seede, and a dead carkasse fall theron, it shalbe vncleane vnto you.	but if water is put on the seed and any part of their carcass falls on it, it is unclean to you.	But if water has been put on the seed and a carcass falls on it, it is unclean for you.
39	If any beast of which ye may eate, dye, and any man touche the dead carkasse thereof, he shalbe vncleane vntyll the euen.	“And if any animal which you may eat dies, whoever touches its carcass shall be unclean until the evening,	“’If an animal that you are allowed to eat dies, anyone who touches its carcass will be unclean till evening.
40	He that eateth of the dead carkasse of it, shall washe his clothes, and be vncleane vntyll the euen: And he also that beareth the carkasse of it, shall washe his clothes, and be vncleane vntyll the euen.	and whoever eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening. And whoever carries the carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening.	Anyone who eats some of its carcass must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening. Anyone who picks up the carcass must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening.
41	Let euery creepyng thyng that creepeth vpon the earth be an abhomination, and not be eaten.	“Every swarming thing that swarms on the ground is detestable; it shall not be eaten.	“’Every creature that moves along the ground is to be regarded as unclean; it is not to be eaten.
42	Whatsoeuer goeth vpon the brest, and whatsoeuer goeth vpon foure, or that hath mo feete among all creepyng thynges that creepe vpon the earth: of that see ye eate not, for they are abhominable.	Whatever goes on its belly, and whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet, any swarming thing that swarms on the ground, you shall not eat, for they are detestable.	You are not to eat any creature that moves along the ground, whether it moves on its belly or walks on all fours or on many feet; it is unclean.
43	Ye shall not make your soules abhominable with nothyng that creepeth, neither make your selues vncleane with them, that ye shoulde be defyled therby.	You shall not make yourselves detestable with any swarming thing that swarms, and you shall not defile yourselves with them, and become unclean through them.	Do not defile yourselves by any of these creatures. Do not make yourselves unclean by means of them or be made unclean by them.
44	For I am the Lorde your God: Be sanctified therfore, and ye shalbe holy, for I am holy: and ye shall not defyle your soules with any maner of creeping thyng that creepeth vpon the earth:	For I am the LORD your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy. You shall not defile yourselves with any swarming thing that crawls on the ground.	I am the LORD your God; consecrate yourselves and be holy, because I am holy. Do not make yourselves unclean by any creature that moves along the ground.
45	For I am the Lorde that brought you out of the lande of Egypt, to be your God: ye shalbe holy therfore, for I am holy.	For I am the LORD who brought you up out of the land of Egypt to be your God. You shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.”	I am the LORD, who brought you up out of Egypt to be your God; therefore be holy, because I am holy.
46	This is the lawe of beastes & foules, and of euery lyuyng creature that moueth in the waters, and of euery creature that creepeth vpon the earth,	This is the law about beast and bird and every living creature that moves through the waters and every creature that swarms on the ground,	“’These are the regulations concerning animals, birds, every living thing that moves about in the water and every creature that moves along the ground.
47	That there may be a difference betweene the vncleane and cleane, and betweene the beast that may be eaten, and the beast that ought not to be eaten.	to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean and between the living creature that may be eaten and the living creature that may not be eaten.	You must distinguish between the unclean and the clean, between living creatures that may be eaten and those that may not be eaten.’”
