3“1You shall not eatH398 anyH3605 detestableH8441 thingH8441. 42TheseH2088 are the animalsH929 whichH834 you may eatH398: the oxH7794, the sheepH3775H7716, the goatH5795, 53the deerH354, the gazelleH6643, the roebuckH3180, the wildH689 goatH689, the ibexH1788, the antelopeH8377 and the mountainH2169 sheepH2169. 6AnyH3605 animalH929 that dividesH6536 the hoofH6541 and hasH8156 the hoofH8157 splitH8156 in 4twoH8147 and 5chewsH5927 the cudH1625, among the animalsH929, that you may eatH398. 7NeverthelessH389, you are not to eatH398 of theseH2088 amongH4480 those which 6chewH5927 the cudH1625, or amongH4480 those that divideH6536 the hoofH6541 in 7twoH8156: the camelH1581 and the 8rabbitH768 and the 9shaphanH8227, for though they 10chewH5927 the cudH1625, they do not divideH6536 the hoofH6541; they are uncleanH2931 for you. 8The pigH2386, becauseH3588 it dividesH6536 the hoofH6541 but does not chew the cudH1625, it is uncleanH2931 for you. You shall not eatH398 anyH4480 of their fleshH1320 norH3808 touchH5060 their carcassesH5038.

9“TheseH2088 you may eatH398 of allH3605 that are in waterH4325: anythingH3605 that has finsH5579 and scalesH7193 you may eatH398, 10but anythingH3605 that does not haveH369 finsH5579 and scalesH7193 you shall not eatH398; it is uncleanH2931 for you.

11“You may eatH398 anyH3605 cleanH2889 birdH6833. 12But 11theseH2088 are the ones whichH834 you shall not eatH398: the 12eagleH5404 and the vultureH6538 and the 13buzzardH5822,
