⁴These are the animals you may eat:

the ox, the sheep, the goat,

⁵the deer, the gazelle, the roe deer,

the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope,

and the mountain sheep.

⁶You may eat any animal that has hooves divided in two and chews the cud. ⁷But among the ones that chew the cud or have divided hooves, you are not to eat these:

the camel, the hare, and the hyrax,

though they chew the cud, they do not have hooves—

they are unclean for you;

⁸and the pig, though it has hooves, it does not chew the cud—

it is unclean for you.

You must not eat their meat or touch their carcasses. ^k

⁹“You may eat everything from the water that has fins and scales, ¹⁰but you may not eat anything that does not have fins and scales—it is unclean for you. ^l

any kind of falcon, ^m

¹⁴every kind of raven, ¹⁵the ostrich,

the short-eared owl, the gull,

any kind of hawk,

¹⁶the little owl, the long-eared owl,

the white owl, ¹⁷the desert owl,

the osprey, the cormorant, ¹⁸the stork,

any kind of heron,

the hoopoe, and the bat. ^no

¹⁹All winged insects are unclean for you; they may not be eaten. ²⁰But you may eat every clean flying creature. ^p
