“‘Nevertheless these you shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those who part the hoof: the camel, because it chews the cud but doesn’t have a parted hoof, is unclean to you.
5 oayapa koni, el finne sifil kontini ma el kangla, tuh tia sengelik falkal, na pa el tia nasnas nu suwos;

10 tusruktu kutena ma moul ma muta in kof su wangin enga ac unac, fah tiana mongo.
All that don’t have fins and scales in the seas and rivers, all that move in the waters, and all the living creatures that are in the waters, they are an abomination to you,

Anything they fall on when they are dead shall be unclean; whether it is any vessel of wood, or clothing, or skin, or sack, whatever vessel it is, with which any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening. Then it will be clean.
33 Ac manolos fin putatyang nu in sie tup orekla ke kle, na ma nukewa ma oan in tup sac fah tia nasnas, ac kowos fah fukulya tup sac.
Every earthen vessel into which any of them falls and all that is in it shall be unclean. You shall break it.

He who eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. He also who carries its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.
41 Kowos fah tia kang kutena sin ma srisrik ma forfor fin faclu,
“‘Every creeping thing that creeps on the earth is an abomination. It shall not be eaten.
42 finne ma orakrak, ku ma fahsr ke nia akosr, ku ke nia pus liki akosr.
Whatever goes on its belly, and whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet, even all creeping things that creep on the earth, them you shall not eat; for they are an abomination.
43 Nimet sifacna akfohkfokye kowos in kang kutena sin ma inge.
You shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creeps. You shall not make yourselves unclean with them, that you should be defiled by them.
44 Nga pa LEUM GOD lowos, ac kowos enenu in liyekowosyang sifacna tuh kowos in mutal, mweyen nga mutal.
For I am the LORD your God. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am holy. You shall not defile yourselves with any kind of creeping thing that moves on the earth.
45 Nga pa LEUM GOD su uskowosme liki Egypt tuh nga fah God lowos. Kowos enenu in mutal, mweyen nga mutal.
For I am the LORD who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. You shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
46 Na pa inge ma sap ke kosro ac won, ac ke ma nukewa ma muta in kof uh, ac ma nukewa ma forfor fin acn uh.
“‘This is the law of the animal, and of the bird, and of every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps on the earth,
47 Kowos fah arulana taran tuh kowos in ku in akilen inmasrlon ma su nasnas ac ma su tia nasnas, inmasrlon kosro ma ac ku in mongo, ac ma su tia mongo.
to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean, and between the living thing that may be eaten and the living thing that may not be eaten.’”
