Leviticus 11
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, dicens:
And Jehovah spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
2 Dicite filiis Israël: Hæc sunt animalia quæ comedere debetis de cunctis animantibus terræ:
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the animals which ye shall eat of all the beasts which are on the earth.
3 omne quod habet divisam ungulam, et ruminat in pecoribus, comedetis.
Whatever hath cloven hoofs, and feet quite split open, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts — that shall ye eat.
4 Quidquid autem ruminat quidem, et habet ungulam, sed non dividit eam, sicut camelus et cetera, non comedetis illud, et inter immunda reputabitis.
Only these shall ye not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those with cloven hoofs: the camel, for it cheweth the cud, but hath not cloven hoofs — it shall be unclean unto you;
5 Chœrogryllus qui ruminat, ungulamque non dividit, immundus est.
and the rock-badger, for it cheweth the cud, but hath not cloven hoofs — it shall be unclean unto you;
6 Lepus quoque: nam et ipse ruminat, sed ungulam non dividit.
and the hare, for it cheweth the cud, but hath not cloven hoofs — it shall be unclean unto you;
7 Et sus: qui cum ungulam dividat, non ruminat.
and the swine, for it hath cloven hoofs, and feet quite split open, but it cheweth not the cud — it shall be unclean unto you.
8 Horum carnibus non vescemini, nec cadavera contingetis, quia immunda sunt vobis.
Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch: they shall be unclean unto you.
9 Hæc sunt quæ gignuntur in aquis, et vesci licitum est: omne quod habet pinnulas et squamas, tam in mari quam in fluminibus et stagnis, comedetis.
These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatever hath fins and scales in waters, in seas and in rivers, these shall ye eat;
10 Quidquid autem pinnulas et squamas non habet, eorum quæ in aquis moventur et vivunt, abominabile vobis,
but all that have not fins and scales in seas and in rivers, of all that swarm in the waters, and of every living soul which is in the waters — they shall be an abomination unto you.
11 execrandumque erit: carnes eorum non comedetis, et morticina vitabitis.
They shall be even an abomination unto you: of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase ye shall have in abomination.
12 Cuncta quæ non habent pinnulas et squamas in aquis, polluta erunt.
Whatever in the waters hath no fins and scales, that shall be an abomination unto you.
13 Hæc sunt quæ de avibus comedere non debetis, et vitanda sunt vobis: aquilam, et gryphem, et haliæetum,
And these shall ye have in abomination of the fowls; they shall not be eaten; an abomination shall they be: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the sea-eagle,
14 et milvum ac vulturem juxta genus suum,
and the falcon, and the kite, after its kind;
15 et omne corvini generis in similitudinem suam,
every raven after its kind;
16 struthionem, et noctuam, et larum, et accipitrem juxta genus suum:
and the female ostrich and the male ostrich, and the sea-gull, and the hawk, after its kind;
17 bubonem, et mergulum, et ibin,
and the owl, and the gannet, and the ibis,
18 et cygnum, et onocrotalum, et porphyrionem,
and the swan, and the pelican, and the carrion vulture,
19 herodionem, et charadrion juxta genus suum, upupam quoque, et vespertilionem.
and the stork; the heron after its kind, and the hoopoe, and the bat.
20 Omne de volucribus quod graditur super quatuor pedes, abominabile erit vobis.
Every winged crawling thing that goeth upon all four shall be an abomination unto you.
21 Quidquid autem ambulat quidem super quatuor pedes, sed habet longiora retro crura, per quæ salit super terram,
Yet these shall ye eat of every winged crawling thing that goeth upon all four: those which have legs above their feet with which to leap upon the earth.
22 comedere debetis, ut est bruchus in genere suo, et attacus atque ophiomachus, ac locusta, singula juxta genus suum.
These shall ye eat of them: the arbeh after its kind, and the solam after its kind, and the hargol after its kind, and the hargab after its kind.
23 Quidquid autem ex volucribus quatuor tantum habet pedes, execrabile erit vobis:
But every winged crawling thing that hath four feet shall be an abomination unto you.
24 et quicumque morticina eorum tetigerit, polluetur, et erit immundus usque ad vesperum:
And by these ye shall make yourselves unclean; whoever toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.
25 et si necesse fuerit ut portet quippiam horum mortuum, lavabit vestimenta sua, et immundus erit usque ad occasum solis.
And whoever carrieth [ought] of their carcase shall wash his garments, and be unclean until the even.
26 Omne animal quod habet quidem ungulam, sed non dividit eam, nec ruminat, immundum erit: et qui tetigerit illud, contaminabitur.
Every beast that hath cloven hoofs, but not feet quite split open, nor cheweth the cud, shall be unclean unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.
27 Quod ambulat super manus ex cunctis animantibus, quæ incedunt quadrupedia, immundum erit: qui tetigerit morticina eorum, polluetur usque ad vesperum.
And whatever goeth on its paws, among all manner of beasts that go upon all four, those are unclean unto you: whoever toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.
28 Et qui portaverit hujuscemodi cadavera, lavabit vestimenta sua, et immundus erit usque ad vesperum: quia omnia hæc immunda sunt vobis.
And he that carrieth their carcase shall wash his garments, and be unclean until the even: they shall be unclean unto you.
29 Hæc quoque inter polluta reputabuntur de his quæ moventur in terra, mustela et mus et crocodilus, singula juxta genus suum,
And these shall be unclean unto you among the crawling things which crawl on the earth: the mole, and the field-mouse, and the lizard, after its kind;
30 mygale, et chamæleon, et stellio, et lacerta, et talpa.
and the groaning lizard, and the great red lizard, and the climbing lizard, and the chomet, and the chameleon.
31 Omnia hæc immunda sunt. Qui tetigerit morticina eorum, immundus erit usque ad vesperum:
These shall be unclean unto you among all that crawl: whoever toucheth them when they are dead, shall be unclean until the even.
32 et super quod ceciderit quidquam de morticinis eorum, polluetur, tam vas ligneum et vestimentum, quam pelles et cilicia: et in quocumque fit opus, tingentur aqua, et polluta erunt usque ad vesperum, et sic postea mundabuntur.
And on whatever any of them when they are dead doth fall, it shall be unclean; all vessels of wood, or garment, or skin, or sack, every vessel wherewith work is done — it shall be put into water, and be unclean until the even; then shall it be clean.
33 Vas autem fictile, in quod horum quidquam intro cecidit, polluetur, et idcirco frangendum est.
And every earthen vessel into which [any] of them falleth — whatever is in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.
34 Omnis cibus, quem comedetis, si fusa fuerit super eum aqua, immundus erit: et omne liquens quod bibitur de universo vase, immundum erit.
All food that is eaten on which [such] water hath come shall be unclean; and all drink that is drunk shall be unclean, in every [such] vessel.
35 Et quidquid de morticinis hujuscemodi ceciderit super illud, immundum erit: sive clibani, sive chytropodes, destruentur, et immundi erunt.
And everything where upon [any part] of their carcase falleth shall be unclean; oven and hearth shall be broken down: they are unclean, and shall be unclean unto you.
36 Fontes vero et cisternæ, et omnis aquarum congregatio munda erit. Qui morticinum eorum tetigerit, polluetur.
Nevertheless, a spring or a well, a quantity of water, shall be clean. But he that toucheth their carcase shall be unclean.
37 Si ceciderit super sementem, non polluet eam.
And if any part of their carcase fall upon any sowing-seed which is to be sown, it shall be clean;
38 Si autem quispiam aqua sementem perfuderit, et postea morticinis tacta fuerit, illico polluetur.
but if water have been put on the seed, and any part of their carcase fall thereon, it shall be unclean unto you.
39 Si mortuum fuerit animal, quod licet vobis comedere, qui cadaver ejus tetigerit, immundus erit usque ad vesperum:
And if any beast which is to you for food die, he that toucheth the carcase thereof shall be unclean until the even.
40 et qui comederit ex eo quippiam, sive portaverit, lavabit vestimenta sua, et immundus erit usque ad vesperum.
And he that eateth of its carcase shall wash his garments, and be unclean until the even: he also that carrieth its carcase shall wash his garments, and be unclean until the even.
41 Omne quod reptat super terram, abominabile erit, nec assumetur in cibum.
And every crawling thing which crawleth on the earth shall be an abomination; it shall not be eaten.
42 Quidquid super pectus quadrupes graditur, et multos habet pedes, sive per humum trahitur, non comedetis, quia abominabile est.
Whatever goeth on the belly, and whatever goeth on all four, and all that have a great many feet, of every manner of crawling thing which crawleth on the earth — these ye shall not eat; for they are an abomination.
43 Nolite contaminare animas vestras, nec tangatis quidquam eorum, ne immundi sitis.
Ye shall not make yourselves abominable through any crawling thing which crawleth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.
44 Ego enim sum Dominus Deus vester: sancti estote, quia ego sanctus sum. Ne polluatis animas vestras in omni reptili quod movetur super terram.
For I am Jehovah your God; and ye shall hallow yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy; and ye shall not make yourselves unclean through any manner of crawling thing which creepeth on the earth.
45 Ego enim sum Dominus, qui eduxi vos de terra Ægypti, ut essem vobis in Deum. Sancti eritis, quia ego sanctus sum.
For I am Jehovah who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
46 Ista est lex animantium ac volucrum, et omnis animæ viventis, quæ movetur in aqua, et reptat in terra,
This is the law of cattle, and of fowl, and of every living soul that moveth in the waters, and of every soul that crawleth on the earth;
47 ut differentias noveritis mundi et immundi, et sciatis quid comedere et quid respuere debeatis.
to make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that is to be eaten and the beast that is not to be eaten.
