1 Ye are the children * h1121 of the LORD * h3068 your God * h430: ye shall not cut * h1413 h8704 yourselves, nor make * h7760 h8799 any baldness * h7144 between your eyes * h5869 for the dead * h4191 h8801.
2 For thou art an holy * h6918 people * h5971 unto the LORD * h3068 thy God * h430, and the LORD * h3068 hath chosen * h977 h8804 thee to be a peculiar * h5459 people * h5971 unto himself, above all the nations * h5971 that are upon * h6440 the earth * h127.
3 Thou shalt not eat * h398 h8799 any abominable thing * h8441.
4 These are the beasts * h929 which ye shall eat * h398 h8799: the ox * h7794, the sheep * h7716 * h3775, and the goat * h5795,
5 The hart * h354, and the roebuck * h6643, and the fallow deer * h3180, and the wild goat * h689, and the pygarg * h1788, and the wild ox * h8377, and the chamois * h2169. pygarg: or bison: Heb. dishon
6 And every beast * h929 that parteth * h6536 h8688 the hoof * h6541, and cleaveth * h8157 the cleft * h8156 h8802 into two * h8147 claws * h6541, and cheweth * h5927 h8688 the cud * h1625 among the beasts * h929, that ye shall eat * h398 h8799.
7 Nevertheless these ye shall not eat * h398 h8799 of them that chew * h5927 h8688 the cud * h1625, or of them that divide * h6536 h8688 the cloven * h8156 h8803 hoof * h6541; as the camel * h1581, and the hare * h768, and the coney * h8227: for they chew * h5927 h8688 the cud * h1625, but divide * h6536 h8689 not the hoof * h6541; therefore they are unclean * h2931 unto you.
8 And the swine * h2386, because it divideth * h6536 h8688 the hoof * h6541, yet cheweth not the cud * h1625, it is unclean * h2931 unto you: ye shall not eat * h398 h8799 of their flesh * h1320, nor touch * h5060 h8799 their dead carcase * h5038.
9 These ye shall eat * h398 h8799 of all that are in the waters * h4325: all that have fins * h5579 and scales * h7193 shall ye eat * h398 h8799:
10 And whatsoever hath not fins * h5579 and scales * h7193 ye may not eat * h398 h8799; it is unclean * h2931 unto you.
11 Of all clean * h2889 birds * h6833 ye shall eat * h398 h8799.
12 But these are they of which ye shall not eat * h398 h8799: the eagle * h5404, and the ossifrage * h6538, and the ospray * h5822,
13 And the glede * h7201, and the kite * h344, and the vulture * h1772 after his kind * h4327,
14 And every raven * h6158 after his kind * h4327,
15 And the owl * h1323 * h3284, and the night hawk * h8464, and the cuckow * h7828, and the hawk * h5322 after his kind * h4327,
16 The little owl * h3563, and the great owl * h3244, and the swan * h8580,
17 And the pelican * h6893, and the gier eagle * h7360, and the cormorant * h7994,
18 And the stork * h2624, and the heron * h601 after her kind * h4327, and the lapwing * h1744, and the bat * h5847.
19 And every creeping thing * h8318 that flieth * h5775 is unclean * h2931 unto you: they shall not be eaten * h398 h8735.
20 But of all clean * h2889 fowls * h5775 ye may eat * h398 h8799.
21 Ye shall not eat * h398 h8799 of any thing that dieth of itself * h5038: thou shalt give * h5414 h8799 it unto the stranger * h1616 that is in thy gates * h8179, that he may eat * h398 h8804 it; or thou mayest sell * h4376 h8800 it unto an alien * h5237: for thou art an holy * h6918 people * h5971 unto the LORD * h3068 thy God * h430. Thou shalt not seethe * h1310 h8762 a kid * h1423 in his mother's * h517 milk * h2461.
22 Thou shalt truly * h6237 h8763 tithe * h6237 h8762 all the increase * h8393 of thy seed * h2233, that the field * h7704 bringeth forth * h3318 h8802 year * h8141 by year * h8141.
23 And thou shalt eat * h398 h8804 before * h6440 the LORD * h3068 thy God * h430, in the place * h4725 which he shall choose * h977 h8799 to place * h7931 h8763 his name * h8034 there, the tithe * h4643 of thy corn * h1715, of thy wine * h8492, and of thine oil * h3323, and the firstlings * h1062 of thy herds * h1241 and of thy flocks * h6629; that thou mayest learn * h3925 h8799 to fear * h3372 h8800 the LORD * h3068 thy God * h430 always * h3117.
24 And if the way * h1870 be too long * h7235 h8799 for thee, so that * h3588 thou art not able * h3201 h8799 to carry * h5375 h8800 it; or if the place * h4725 be too far * h7368 h8799 from thee, which the LORD * h3068 thy God * h430 shall choose * h977 h8799 to set * h7760 h8800 his name * h8034 there, when the LORD * h3068 thy God * h430 hath blessed * h1288 h8762 thee:
25 Then shalt thou turn * h5414 h8804 it into money * h3701, and bind up * h6696 h8804 the money * h3701 in thine hand * h3027, and shalt go * h1980 h8804 unto the place * h4725 which the LORD * h3068 thy God * h430 shall choose * h977 h8799:
26 And thou shalt bestow * h5414 h8804 that money * h3701 for whatsoever thy soul * h5315 lusteth after * h183 h8762, for oxen * h1241, or for sheep * h6629, or for wine * h3196, or for strong drink * h7941, or for whatsoever thy soul * h5315 desireth * h7592 h8799: and thou shalt eat * h398 h8804 there before * h6440 the LORD * h3068 thy God * h430, and thou shalt rejoice * h8055 h8804, thou, and thine household * h1004, desireth: Heb. asketh of thee
27 And the Levite * h3881 that is within thy gates * h8179; thou shalt not forsake * h5800 h8799 him; for he hath no part * h2506 nor inheritance * h5159 with thee.
28 At the end * h7097 of three * h7969 years * h8141 thou shalt bring forth * h3318 h8686 all the tithe * h4643 of thine increase * h8393 the same year * h8141, and shalt lay it up * h3240 h8689 within thy gates * h8179:
29 And the Levite * h3881, (because he hath no part * h2506 nor inheritance * h5159 with thee,) and the stranger * h1616, and the fatherless * h3490, and the widow * h490, which are within thy gates * h8179, shall come * h935 h8804, and shall eat * h398 h8804 and be satisfied * h7646 h8804; that the LORD * h3068 thy God * h430 may bless * h1288 h8762 thee in all the work * h4639 of thine hand * h3027 which thou doest * h6213 h8799.
