Leviticus 11:29-44
29And theseH2088 are they whichH8318 are uncleanH2931 unto youH5921 among the creeping things that creep uponH5921 the earthH776; the weasel, and the mouseH5909, and the great lizard afterH5921 itsH5921 kindH4327,
30and the geckoH604, and the land-crocodile, and the lizardH3911, and the sand-lizard, and the chameleonH8580.
31TheseH428 are they whichH8318 are uncleanH2931 to youH3605 among allH3605 that creep: whosoever doth touchH5060 them, when they are deadH4194, shall be uncleanH2931 untilH5704 the evenH5704.
32And uponH5921 whatsoeverH3605 anyH3605 of them, when they are deadH4194, doth fallH5307, it shall be uncleanH2930; whetherH176 it be anyH3605 vesselH3627 of woodH6086, or raiment, or skinH5785, or sackH8242, whatsoeverH3605 vesselH3627 it be, wherewith anyH3605 workH4399 is doneH6213, it must be putH935 intoH935 waterH4325, and it shall be uncleanH2930 untilH5704 the evenH5704; then shall it be cleanH2891.
33And everyH3605 earthenH2789 vesselH3627, whereinto anyH3605 of them falleth, whatsoeverH3605 is in it shall be uncleanH2930, and it ye shall breakH7665.
34AllH3605 foodH400 therein whichH834 may be eatenH398, that on whichH834 waterH4325 cometh, shall be uncleanH2930: and allH3605 drinkH8354 that may be drunkH8354 in everyH3605 suchH834 vesselH3627 shall be uncleanH2930.
35And everyH3605 thingH3605 whereupon anyH3605 partH5921 of their carcase falleth shall be uncleanH2931; whether ovenH8574, or range for pots, it shall be brokenH5422 in pieces: they are uncleanH2931, and shall be uncleanH2931 unto youH834.
36NeverthelessH389 a fountainH4599 or a pitH953 wherein is a gatheringH4723 of waterH4325 shall be cleanH2889: but that whichH5038 toucheth their carcase shall be uncleanH2930.
37And ifH3588 aught of their carcase fallH5307 uponH5921 anyH3605 sowingH2221 seedH2233 whichH834 is to be sownH2232, it is cleanH2889.
38But ifH3588 waterH4325 be putH5414 uponH5921 the seedH2233, and aught of their carcase fallH5307 thereonH5921, it is uncleanH2931 unto youH3588.
39And ifH3588 anyH4480 beastH929, of whichH834 ye may eatH402, dieH4191; he that toucheth the carcase thereof shall be uncleanH2930 untilH5704 the evenH5704.
40And he that eateth of the carcase of it shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and be uncleanH2930 untilH5704 the evenH5704: he also that beareth the carcase of it shall washH3526 his clothesH899, and be uncleanH2930 untilH5704 the evenH5704.
41And everyH3605 creeping thingH8318 that creepeth uponH5921 the earthH776 is an abomination; it shall notH3808 be eatenH398.
42WhatsoeverH3605 goeth uponH5921 the belly, and whatsoeverH3605 goeth uponH5921 allH3605 fourH702, or whatsoeverH3605 hath manyH7235 feetH7272, evenH5704 allH3605 creeping things that creep uponH5921 the earthH776, them ye shall notH3808 eatH398; for they are an abomination.
43Ye shall notH3808 makeH2930 yourselves abominable with anyH3605 creeping thingH8318 that creepeth, neitherH3808 shall ye makeH2930 yourselves uncleanH2930 with them, that ye should be defiledH2930 thereby.
44For I am the LORDH3068 your GodH430: sanctifyH6942 yourselves therefore, and be ye holyH6918; for I am holyH6918: neitherH3808 shall ye defileH2930 yourselves with anyH3605 manner of creeping thingH8318 that moveth uponH5921 the earthH776.
