1 Ye <em>are</em> the sons of the LORD your God: ye shall not cut yourselves nor make any baldness over your eyes for the dead.
1 You are the children of the LORD your God. Do not cut yourselves or shave the front of your heads for the dead,
2 For thou <em>art</em> a holy people unto the LORD thy God, and the LORD has chosen thee to be a unique people unto himself from among all the peoples that <em>are</em> upon the face of the earth.
2 for you are a people holy to the LORD your God. Out of all the peoples on the face of the earth, the LORD has chosen you to be his treasured possession.
3 Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.

6 You may eat any animal that has a divided hoof and that chews the cud.
7 Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of those that chew the cud or of those that divide the cloven hoof: the camel and the hare and the coney, for they chew the cud, but do not divide the hoof; <em>therefore</em> they <em>are</em> 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 divides the hoof, yet does not chew 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 <em>are</em> in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall ye eat,

21 Ye shall not eat <em>of</em> any thing that died of itself; thou shalt give it unto the stranger that <em>is</em> in thy gates that he may eat it, or thou may sell it unto an alien; for thou <em>art</em> a holy people unto the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not cook a kid in his mother’s milk.
21 Do not eat anything you find already dead. You may give it to the foreigner residing in any of your towns, and they may eat it, or you may sell it to any other foreigner. But you are a people holy to the LORD your God. Do not cook a young goat in its mother’s milk.
22 Thou shalt without fail tithe all the increase of thy seed that <em>thy</em> field brings forth each year.
22 Be sure to set aside a tenth of all that your fields produce each year.
23 And thou shalt eat before the LORD thy God in the place which he shall choose for his name to dwell, the tithe of thy grain, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the firstborn of thy cows and of thy sheep, that thou may learn to fear the LORD thy God always.
23 Eat the tithe of your grain, new wine and olive oil, and the firstborn of your herds and flocks in the presence of the LORD your God at the place he will choose as a dwelling for his Name, so that you may learn to revere the LORD your God always.
24 And if the way is too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it, <em>or</em> if the place is <em>too</em> far from thee, which the LORD thy God shall choose to set his name there, when the LORD thy God has blessed thee,
24 But if that place is too distant and you have been blessed by the LORD your God and cannot carry your tithe (because the place where the LORD will choose to put his Name is so far away),
25 then shalt thou sell <em>it</em> for money and bind up the money in thy hand and shalt go unto the place which the LORD thy God shall choose;
25 then exchange your tithe for silver, and take the silver with you and go to the place the LORD your God will choose.
26 and thou shalt give that money for whatever thy soul desires, for cows or for sheep or for wine or for strong drink or for whatever thy soul desires; and thou shalt eat there before the LORD thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou and thine household.
26 Use the silver to buy whatever you like: cattle, sheep, wine or other fermented drink, or anything you wish. Then you and your household shall eat there in the presence of the LORD your God and rejoice.
27 And thou shalt not forsake the Levite that <em>dwells</em> within thy gates, for he has no part nor inheritance with thee.
27 And do not neglect the Levites living in your towns, for they have no allotment or inheritance of their own.
28 At the end of three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thine increase the same year and shalt lay <em>it</em> up within thy gates.
28 At the end of every three years, bring all the tithes of that year’s produce and store it in your towns,
29 And the Levite, who has no part nor inheritance with thee, and the stranger and the fatherless and the widow who <em>are</em> within thy gates, shall come and shall eat and be satisfied, that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hands which thou doest.
29 so that the Levites (who have no allotment or inheritance of their own) and the foreigners, the fatherless and the widows who live in your towns may come and eat and be satisfied, and so that the LORD your God may bless you in all the work of your hands.
