have their carcases in abomination.
[12] Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall
be an abomination unto you.
[13] And these are they which ye shall have in abomination among the
fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
[14]
And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;
[15] Every raven after his kind;
[16] And the owl, and the night
hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,
[17] And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the
great owl,
[18] And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
[19] And the stork, the heron after her
kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
[20] All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be an abomination
unto you.
[21] Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon all four, which have
legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth;
[22] Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after
his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his
kind.
[23] But all other flying creeping things, which have four feet, shall be an abomination unto you.
[24]
And for these ye shall be unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean until the
even.
[25] And whosoever beareth ought of the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean
until the even.
[26] The carcases of every beast which divideth the hoof, and is not clovenfooted, nor
cheweth the cud, are unclean unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.
[27] And whatsoever
goeth upon his paws, among all manner of beasts that go on all four, those are unclean unto you: whoso
toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.
[28] And he that beareth the carcase of them
shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: they are unclean unto you.
[29] These also shall
be unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse,
and the tortoise after his kind,
[30] And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and
the mole.
[31] These are unclean to you among all that creep: whosoever doth touch them, when they be
dead, shall be unclean until the even.
[32] And upon whatsoever any of them, when they are dead, doth
fall, it shall be unclean; whether it be any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel
it be, wherein any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the even; so it
shall be cleansed.
[33] And every earthen vessel, whereinto any of them falleth, whatsoever is in it shall
be unclean; and ye shall break it.
[34] Of all meat which may be eaten, that on which such water cometh
shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drunk in every such vessel shall be unclean.
[35] And every
thing whereupon any part of their carcase falleth shall be unclean; whether it be oven, or ranges for pots,
they shall be broken down: for they are unclean, and shall be unclean unto you.
[36] Nevertheless a fountain
or pit, wherein there is plenty of water, shall be clean: but that which toucheth their carcase shall be
unclean.
[37] And if any part of their carcase fall upon any sowing seed which is to be sown, it shall be
clean.
[38] But if any water be put upon the seed, and any part of their carcase fall thereon, it shall be
unclean unto you.
[39] And if any beast, of which ye may eat, die; he that toucheth the carcase thereof
shall be unclean until the even.
[40] And he that eateth of the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and
be unclean until the even: he also that beareth the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean
until the even.
[41] And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth shall be an abomination; it shall
not be eaten.
[42] Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and whatsoever goeth upon all four, or whatsoever
hath more feet among all creeping things that creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat; for they are
an abomination.
[43] Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth,
neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.
[44] For I am
the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither
shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
[45] For I am
the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for
I am holy.
[46] This is the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in
the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth:
[47] To make a difference between the
unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.
Lev.12
[1] And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
[2] Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, If a woman
have conceived seed, and born a man child: then she shall be unclean seven days; according to the days
of the separation for her infirmity shall she be unclean.
[3] And in the eighth day the flesh of his foreskin
shall be circumcised.
[4] And she shall then continue in the blood of her purifying three and thirty days; she
shall touch no hallowed thing, nor come into the sanctuary, until the days of her purifying be fulfilled.
