Leviticus 11

ECB(i) 1
FOODS: BIDDEN AND FORBIDDEN
And Yah Veh words to Mosheh and to Aharon, saying to them, 2 Word to the sons of Yisra El, saying, These are the live beings you eat of all the animals on the earth: 3 whatever splits the hoof and cleaves the cleft of the hoof and regurgitates the cud, among the animals, that you eat. 4 Only these eat not: of them that regurgitate the cud, or of them that split the hoof: as the camel, though he regurgitates the cud, yet splits not the hoof; he is foul to you: 5 and the coney, though he regurgitates the cud, yet splits not the hoof; he is foul to you: 6 and the hare, though he regurgitates the cud, yet splits not the hoof; he is foul to you: 7 and the hog, though he split the hoof and cleaves the cleft of the hoof, yet regurgitates not the cud; he is foul to you. 8 - neither eat their flesh nor touch their carcase they are foul to you. 9 These you eat of all in the waters: whatever has fins and scales in the waters - in the seas and in the wadies them you eat: 10 and all with no fins and scales in the seas and in the wadies - all that teem in the waters of any living soul in the waters, are an abomination to you: 11 yes, they are an abomination to you: eat not of their flesh and abominate their carcases. 12 - whatever in the waters has neither fins nor scales is an abomination to you: 13 And of the flyers, abominate these: eat them not - they are an abomination: the eagle and the ossifrage and the ospray 14 and the kite and the hawk in species; 15 every raven in species; 16 and the daughter of the owl and the night hawk and the cuckow and the hawk in species; 17 and the little owl and the cormorant and the great owl 18 and the swan and the pelican and the gier eagle, 19 and the stork, the heron in species; and the hoopoe and the bat; 20 all teemers that fly, going on all four, are an abomination to you. 21 Only these: eat of every flying teemer going on all four having legs above their feet to leap with on the earth; 22 of them, eat these: the locust in species and the bald locust in species and the beetle in species and the grasshopper in species. 23 - and all teemers that fly, having four feet, are an abomination to you. 24 And for these you become foul: whoever touches their carcase becomes foul until the evening. 25 And whoever bears of their carcase, washes his clothes and becomes foul until the evening: 26 every animal splitting the hoof, but neither cleaves the cleft of the hoof nor regurgitates the cud is foul to you: every one who touches them becomes foul. 27 And whatever goes on his paws, among all live beings that go on all four, are foul to you: whoever touches their carcase becomes foul until the evening. 28 And he who bears their carcase, washes his clothes and becomes foul until the evening: they are foul to you. 29 And these are foul to you among the teemers teeming on the earth: the weasel and the mouse and the tortoise in species, 30 and the shrieker and the chameleon and the lizard and the snail and the mole; 31 these are foul to you among all the teemers: whoever touches them, in their death, becomes foul until the evening: 32 and on whatever any of them, when they are dead, falls, becomes foul; whether any instrument of timber or clothes or skin or saq - whatever instrument, wherein work is worked: and it becomes foul until the evening; put it in water: thus be it purified. 33 And every pottery instrument that falls midst any of them, whatever is in its midst becomes fouled; and you break it. 34 Of all food to eat, on which such water comes, becomes foul: and all drink to drink in every such instrument becomes foul: 35 and all whereupon their carcase falls becomes foul - oven or ranges for pots - pull them down for they are foul - foul to you. 36 Only, a fountain or well - a congregating of water, is pure: but what touches their carcase becomes foul. 37 And if their carcase falls on any seeding seed to be seeded, it is pure: 38 and if any water is given on the seed and their carcase fall thereon, it becomes foul to you. 39 And if any animal for food, dies; he who touches the carcase thereof becomes foul until the evening: 40 and he who eats of the carcase thereof washes his clothes and becomes foul until the evening: and he who bears the carcase thereof washes his clothes and becomes foul until the evening. 41 And every teemer teeming on the earth is an abomination - not eaten. 42 Whatever goes on the belly and whatever goes on all four or whatever abounds with feet among all teemers teeming on the earth, eat them not; for they are an abomination. 43 Neither abominate your souls with any teeming teemer, nor foul yourselves with them, that you become foul thereby. 44 I - Yah Veh your Elohim: hallow yourselves and be holy; I - holy: foul not your souls with any teemer creeping on the earth. 45 I - Yah Veh who ascended you from the land of Misrayim, to become your Elohim: so you become holy; I - holy. 46 This is the torah of the animals and of the flyers and of every living soul creeping in the waters and of every soul teeming on the earth: 47 to separate between the foul and between the pure and between the live being to eat and between the live being not to eat.
