Leviticus 11
1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron, dicens:
And the LORD spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto 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 beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that [are] on the earth.
3 omne quod habet divisam ungulam, et ruminat in pecoribus, comedetis.
Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, [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.
Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: [as] the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is] unclean unto you.
5 Chœrogryllus qui ruminat, ungulamque non dividit, immundus est.
And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is] unclean unto you.
6 Lepus quoque: nam et ipse ruminat, sed ungulam non dividit.
And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he [is] unclean unto you.
7 Et sus: qui cum ungulam dividat, non ruminat.
And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he [is] unclean to 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 [are] unclean 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 eat of all that [are] in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
10 Quidquid autem pinnulas et squamas non habet, eorum quæ in aquis moventur et vivunt, abominabile vobis,
And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing 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; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.
12 Cuncta quæ non habent pinnulas et squamas in aquis, polluta erunt.
Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, 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 [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 et milvum ac vulturem juxta genus suum,
And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;
15 et omne corvini generis in similitudinem suam,
Every raven after his kind;
16 struthionem, et noctuam, et larum, et accipitrem juxta genus suum:
And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,
17 bubonem, et mergulum, et ibin,
And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
18 et cygnum, et onocrotalum, et porphyrionem,
And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
19 herodionem, et charadrion juxta genus suum, upupam quoque, et vespertilionem.
And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
20 Omne de volucribus quod graditur super quatuor pedes, abominabile erit vobis.
All fowls that creep, going 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 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 comedere debetis, ut est bruchus in genere suo, et attacus atque ophiomachus, ac locusta, singula juxta genus suum.
[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 Quidquid autem ex volucribus quatuor tantum habet pedes, execrabile erit vobis:
But all [other] flying creeping things, which have four feet, [shall be] an abomination unto you.
24 et quicumque morticina eorum tetigerit, polluetur, et erit immundus usque ad vesperum:
And for these ye shall be unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcase of them 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 whosoever beareth [ought] of the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, 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.
[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 Quod ambulat super manus ex cunctis animantibus, quæ incedunt quadrupedia, immundum erit: qui tetigerit morticina eorum, polluetur usque ad vesperum.
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 Et qui portaverit hujuscemodi cadavera, lavabit vestimenta sua, et immundus erit usque ad vesperum: quia omnia hæc immunda sunt vobis.
And he that beareth the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: they [are] unclean unto you.
29 Hæc quoque inter polluta reputabuntur de his quæ moventur in terra, mustela et mus et crocodilus, singula juxta genus suum,
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 mygale, et chamæleon, et stellio, et lacerta, et talpa.
And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.
31 Omnia hæc immunda sunt. Qui tetigerit morticina eorum, immundus erit usque ad vesperum:
These [are] unclean to you among all that creep: whosoever doth touch them, when they be 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 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 Vas autem fictile, in quod horum quidquam intro cecidit, polluetur, et idcirco frangendum est.
And every earthen vessel, whereinto [any] of them falleth, whatsoever [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.
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 Et quidquid de morticinis hujuscemodi ceciderit super illud, immundum erit: sive clibani, sive chytropodes, destruentur, et immundi erunt.
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 Fontes vero et cisternæ, et omnis aquarum congregatio munda erit. Qui morticinum eorum tetigerit, polluetur.
Nevertheless a fountain or pit, [wherein there is] plenty of water, shall be clean: but that which toucheth their carcase shall be unclean.
37 Si ceciderit super sementem, non polluet eam.

38 Si autem quispiam aqua sementem perfuderit, et postea morticinis tacta fuerit, illico polluetur.
But if [any] water be put upon 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, of which ye may eat, 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 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 Omne quod reptat super terram, abominabile erit, nec assumetur in cibum.
And every creeping thing that creepeth upon 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.
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 Nolite contaminare animas vestras, nec tangatis quidquam eorum, ne immundi sitis.
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 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] 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 Ego enim sum Dominus, qui eduxi vos de terra Ægypti, ut essem vobis in Deum. Sancti eritis, quia ego sanctus sum.
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 Ista est lex animantium ac volucrum, et omnis animæ viventis, quæ movetur in aqua, et reptat in terra,
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 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 may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.
