King James Version KJV
New International Version NIV
4 These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,
4
These are the animals you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,
5 The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow deer, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the wild ox, and the chamois.
5
the deer, the gazelle, the roe deer, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope and the mountain sheep.
6 And every beast that parteth the hoof, and cleaveth the cleft into two claws, and cheweth the cud among the beasts, that ye shall eat.
6
You may eat any animal that has a divided hoof and that chews the cud.
7 Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the cloven hoof; as the camel, and the hare, and the coney: for they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof; therefore they are unclean unto you.
7
However, of those that chew the cud or that have a divided hoof you may not eat the camel, the rabbit or the hyrax. Although they chew the cud, they do not have a divided hoof; they are ceremonially unclean for you.
8 And the swine, because it divideth the hoof, yet cheweth not the cud, it is unclean unto you: ye shall not eat of their flesh, nor touch their dead carcase.
8
The pig is also unclean; although it has a divided hoof, it does not chew the cud. You are not to eat their meat or touch their carcasses.
9 These ye shall eat of all that are in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall ye eat:
9
Of all the creatures living in the water, you may eat any that has fins and scales.
10 And whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; it is unclean unto you.
10
But anything that does not have fins and scales you may not eat; for you it is unclean.
11 Of all clean birds ye shall eat.
11
You may eat any clean bird.
12 But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
12
But these you may not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the black vulture,
13 And the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind,
13
the red kite, the black kite, any kind of falcon,
14 And every raven after his kind,
14
any kind of raven,
