Leviticus 11:2-23

2“Speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘These are the animals which you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth:

3Among the animals, whatever divides the hoof, having cloven hooves and chewing the cud—that you may eat.

4Nevertheless these you shall not eat among those that chew the cud or those that have cloven hooves: the camel, because it chews the cud but does not have cloven hooves, is unclean to you;

5the rock hyrax, because it chews the cud but does not have cloven hooves, is unclean to you;

6the hare, because it chews the cud but does not have cloven hooves, is unclean to you;

7and the swine, though it divides the hoof, having cloven hooves, yet does not chew the cud, is unclean to you.

8Their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch. They are unclean to you.

9‘These you may eat of all that are in the water: whatever in the water has fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the rivers—that you may eat.

10But all in the seas or in the rivers that do not have fins and scales, all that move in the water or any living thing which is in the water, they are an abomination to you.

11They shall be an abomination to you; you shall not eat their flesh, but you shall regard their carcasses as an abomination.

12Whatever in the water does not have fins or scales—that shall be an abomination to you.

13‘And these you shall regard as an abomination among the birds; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, the vulture, the buzzard,

14the kite, and the falcon after its kind;

15every raven after its kind,

16the ostrich, the short-eared owl, the sea gull, and the hawk after its kind;

17the little owl, the fisher owl, and the screech owl;

18the white owl, the jackdaw, and the carrion vulture;

19the stork, the heron after its kind, the hoopoe, and the bat.

20‘All flying insects that creep on all fours shall be an abomination to you.

21Yet these you may eat of every flying insect that creeps on all fours: those which have jointed legs above their feet with which to leap on the earth.

22These you may eat: the locust after its kind, the destroying locust after its kind, the cricket after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind.

23But all other flying insects which have four feet shall be an abomination to you.
