Leviticus 11
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, dicens:
After, the Lord spake vnto Moses and to Aaron, saying vnto them,
2 Dicite filiis Israël: Hæc sunt animalia quæ comedere debetis de cunctis animantibus terræ:
Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say, These are the beastes which yee shall eate, among all the beasts that are on the earth.
3 omne quod habet divisam ungulam, et ruminat in pecoribus, comedetis.
Whatsoeuer parteth the hoofe, and is clouen footed, and cheweth the cudde, among the beastes, that shall ye eate.
4 Quidquid autem ruminat quidem, et habet ungulam, sed non dividit eam, sicut camelus et cetera, non comedetis illud, et inter immunda reputabitis.
But of them that chewe the cud, or deuide the hoofe onely, of them yee shall not eate: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, and deuideth not ye hoofe, he shall be vncleane vnto you.
5 Chœrogryllus qui ruminat, ungulamque non dividit, immundus est.
Likewise the conie, because he cheweth the cud and deuideth not the hoofe, he shall bee vncleane to you.
6 Lepus quoque: nam et ipse ruminat, sed ungulam non dividit.
Also the hare, because he cheweth the cud, and deuideth not the hoofe, he shalbe vncleane to you.
7 Et sus: qui cum ungulam dividat, non ruminat.
And the swine, because he parteth ye hoofe and is clouen footed, but cheweth not the cud, he shalbe vncleane to you.
8 Horum carnibus non vescemini, nec cadavera contingetis, quia immunda sunt vobis.
Of their flesh shall yee not eate, and their carkeise shall yee not touch: for they shall bee vncleane to 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 eate, of all that are in the waters: whatsoeuer hath finnes and skales in ye waters, in the seas, or in the riuers, them shall ye eate.
10 Quidquid autem pinnulas et squamas non habet, eorum quæ in aquis moventur et vivunt, abominabile vobis,
But all that haue not finnes nor skales in the seas, or in the riuers, of all that moueth in the waters, and of al liuing things that are in the waters, they shalbe an abomination vnto you.
11 execrandumque erit: carnes eorum non comedetis, et morticina vitabitis.

20 Omne de volucribus quod graditur super quatuor pedes, abominabile erit vobis.
Also euery foule that creepeth and goeth vpon all foure, such shalbe an abomination vnto you.
21 Quidquid autem ambulat quidem super quatuor pedes, sed habet longiora retro crura, per quæ salit super terram,
Yet these shall ye eate: of euery foule that creepeth, and goeth vpon all foure which haue their feete and legs all of one to leape withal vpon the earth,
22 comedere debetis, ut est bruchus in genere suo, et attacus atque ophiomachus, ac locusta, singula juxta genus suum.
Of them ye shall eate these, the grashopper after his kinde, and the solean after his kinde, the hargol after his kinde, and the hagab after his kind.

This is the law of beasts, and of foules, and of euery liuing thing that moueth in the waters, and of euery thing that creepeth vpon the earth:
