29
And these unclean to you of reptiles upon the earth, the weasel, and the mouse, and the lizard,
30
the ferret, and the chameleon, and the evet, and the newt, and the mole.
31
These are unclean to you of all the reptiles which are on the earth; every one who touches their carcases shall be unclean till evening.
32
And on whatsoever one of their dead bodies shall fall it shall be unclean; whatever wooden vessel, or garment, or skin, or sack it may be, every vessel in which work should be done, shall be dipped in water, and shall be unclean till evening; and it shall be clean.
33
And every earthen vessel into which one of these things shall fall, whatsoever is inside it, shall be unclean, and it shall be broken.
34
And all food that is eaten, on which water shall come , shall be unclean; and every beverage which is drunk in any vessel, shall be unclean.
35
And every thing on which there shall fall of their dead bodies shall be unclean; ovens and stands for jars shall be broken down: these are unclean, and they shall be unclean to you.
36
Only of fountains of water, or a pool, or confluence of water, it shall be clean; but he that touches their carcases shall be unclean.
37
And if one of their carcases should fall upon any sowing seed which shall be sown, it shall be clean.
38
But if water be poured on any seed, and one of their dead bodies fall upon it, it is unclean to you.
39
And if one of the cattle die, which it is lawful for you to eat, he that touches their carcases shall be unclean till evening.
40
And he that eats of their carcases shall wash his garments, and be unclean till evening; and he that carries any of their carcases shall wash his garments, and bathe himself in water, and be unclean till evening.
41
And every reptile that creeps on the earth, this shall be an abomination to you; it shall not be eaten.
42
And every that creeps on its belly, and every one that goes on four continually, which abounds with feet among all the reptiles creeping upon the earth—ye shall not eat it, for it is an abomination to you.
43
And ye shall not defile your souls with any of the reptiles that creep upon the earth, and ye shall not be polluted with them, and ye shall not be unclean by them.
44
For I am the Lord your God; and ye shall be sanctified, and ye shall be holy, because I the Lord your God am holy; and ye shall not defile your souls with any of the reptiles creeping upon the earth.
45
For I am the Lord who brought you up out of the land of Egypt to be your God; and ye shall be holy, for I the Lord am holy.
46
This is the law concerning beasts and birds and every living creature moving in the water, and every living creature creeping on the earth;
47
to distinguish between the unclean and the clean; and between those that bring forth alive, such as should be eaten, and those that bring forth alive, such as should not be eaten.
