Deuteronomy 14:1-6 ▼

1 “You are the sons of Yahweh your God; you shall not gash yourselves nor shave your forehead for the sake of the dead.

2 For you are a holy people to Yahweh your God, and Yahweh has chosen you to be a people for His treasured possession out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.

3 “You shall not eat any abominable thing.

4 These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,

5 the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the mountain sheep.

6 And any animal that divides the hoof and has the hoof split in two and chews the cud, among the animals, that one you may eat.
