1
And the LORD spoke unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,
2
"Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, `These are the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.
3
Whatsoever parteth the hoof and is cloven-footed and cheweth the cud among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
4
Nevertheless these shall ye not eat, of those that chew the cud or of those that divide the hoof: the camel, because he cheweth the cud but divideth not the hoof, he is unclean unto you;
5
and the coney, because he cheweth the cud but divideth not the hoof, he is unclean unto you;
6
and the hare, because he cheweth the cud but divideth not the hoof, he is unclean unto you;
7
and the swine, though he divide the hoof and is cloven- footed, yet he cheweth not the cud, he is unclean to you.
8
Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcass shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.
