41 And every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth is unclean to you; it shall not be eaten. 42 Whatever goes upon its belly and whatever goes upon all fours or whatever has many feet among all creeping things that creep upon the earth, you shall not eat of them; for they are unclean. 43 You shall not make yourselves unclean with any creeping thing that creeps upon the earth, lest you become unclean with them; defile not yourselves with them. 44 For I am the LORD your God; you shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and you shall be holy; for I am holy; neither shall you defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creeps upon the earth. 45 For I am the LORD your God who brought you up out of the land of Egypt to be your God; you shall therefore be holy, for I am holy. 46 This is the law of beast and of fowl and of every living creature that moves in the water and of every creature that creeps upon the earth; 47 To make a distinction between the unclean and the clean and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.
