Deuteronomy 14

1 Ye are the children of the LORD your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.

Ye are the children of the Lord your God: ye shall not make any baldness between you eyes for the dead.

2 For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God, and the LORD hath chosen thee to be a peculiar people unto himself, above all peoples that are upon the face of the earth.

For thou art a holy people to the Lord thy God, and the Lord thy God has chosen thee to be a peculiar people to himself of all the nations on the face of the earth.

3 Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.

Ye shall not eat any abominable thing.

4 These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,

These [are] the beasts which ye shall eat; the calf of the herd, and lamb of the sheep, and kid of the goats;

5 the hart, and the gazelle, and the roebuck, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the antelope, and the chamois.

the stag, and doe, and pygarg, and wild goat, and camelopard.

6 And every beast that parteth the hoof, and hath the hoof cloven in two, [and] cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that ye shall eat.

Every beast that divides the hoofs, and makes claws of two divisions, and that chews the cud among beasts, these ye shall eat.

7 Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that have the hoof cloven: the camel, and the hare, and the coney, because they chew the cud but part not the hoof, they are unclean unto you:

And these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, and of those that divide the hoofs, and make distinct claws; the camel, and the hare, and the rabbit; because they chew the cud, and do not divide the hoof, these are unclean to you.

8 and the swine, because he parteth the hoof but cheweth not the cud, he is unclean unto you: of their flesh ye shall not eat, and their carcases ye shall not touch.

And as for the swine, because he divides the hoof, and makes claws of the hoof, yet he chews not the cud, he is unclean to you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, ye shall not touch their dead bodies.

9 These ye shall eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales shall ye eat:

And these ye shall eat of all that are in the water, ye shall eat all that have fins and scales.

10 and whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye shall not eat; it is unclean unto you.

And all that have not fins and scales ye shall not eat; they are unclean to you.

11 Of all clean birds ye may eat.

Ye shall eat every clean bird.

12 But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the gier eagle, and the ospray;

And these of them ye shall not eat; the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the sea-eagle,

13 and the glede, and the falcon, and the kite after its kind;

and the vulture, and the kite and the like to it,

14 and every raven after its kind;

15 and the ostrich, and the night hawk, and the seamew, and the hawk after its kind;

and the sparrow, and the owl, and the seamew,

16 the little owl, and the great owl, and the horned owl;

and the heron, and the swan, and the stork,

17 and the pelican, and the vulture, and the cormorant;

and the cormorant, and the hawk, and its like, and the hoopoe, and the raven,

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

and the pelican, and the diver and the like to it, and the red-bill and the bat.

19 And all winged creeping things are unclean unto you: they shall not be eaten.

All winged animals that creep are unclean to you; ye shall not eat of them.

20 Of all clean fowls ye may eat.

Ye shall eat every clean bird.

21 Ye shall not eat of any thing that dieth of itself: thou mayest give it unto the stranger that is within thy gates, that he may eat it; or thou mayest sell it unto a foreigner: for thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in its mother’s milk.

Ye shall eat nothing that dies of itself; it shall be given to the sojourner in thy cities and he shall eat it, or thou shalt sell it to a stranger, because thou art a holy people to the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not boil a lamb in his mother's milk.

22 Thou shalt surely tithe all the increase of thy seed, that which cometh forth of the field year by year.

Thou shalt tithe a tenth of all the produce of thy seed, the fruit of thy field year by year.

23 And thou shalt eat before the LORD thy God, in the place which he shall choose to cause his name to dwell there, the tithe of thy corn, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the firstlings of thy herd and of thy flock; that thou mayest learn to fear the LORD thy God always.

And thou shalt eat it in the place which the Lord thy God shall choose to have his name called there; ye shall bring the tithe of thy corn and of thy wine, and of thine oil, the first-born of thy herd and of thy flock, that thou mayest learn to fear the Lord thy God always.

24 And if the way be too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it, because the place is too far from thee, which the LORD thy God shall choose to set his name there, when the LORD thy God shall bless thee:

And if the journey be too far for thee, and thou art not able to bring them, because the place [is] far from thee which the Lord thy God shall choose to have his name called there, because the Lord thy God will bless thee;

25 then shalt thou turn it into money, and bind up the money in thine hand, and shalt go unto the place which the LORD thy God shall choose:

then thou shalt sell them for money, and thou shalt take the money in thy hands, and thou shalt go to the place which the Lord thy God shall choose.

26 and thou shalt bestow the money for whatsoever thy soul desireth, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatsoever thy soul asketh of thee: and thou shalt eat there before the LORD thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou and thine household:

And thou shalt give the money for whatsoever thy soul shall desire, for oxen or for sheep, or for wine, or [thou shalt lay it out] on strong drink, or on whatsoever thy soul may desire, and thou shalt eat there before the Lord thy God, and thou shalt rejoice and thy house,

27 and the Levite that is within thy gates, thou shalt not forsake him; for he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee.

and the Levite that is in thy cities, because he has not a portion or inheritance with thee.

28 At the end of every three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thine increase in the same year, and shalt lay it up within thy gates:

After three years thou shalt bring out all the tithes of thy fruits, in that year thou shalt lay it up in thy cities.

29 and the Levite, because he hath no portion nor inheritance with thee, and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hand which thou doest.

And the Levite shall come, because he has no part or lot with thee, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow which is in thy cities; and they shall eat and be filled, that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all the works which thou shalt do.
