Deuteronomy 14:1-14 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

1. Ye are sons of Jehovah your God ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for a dead person.

2. For thou art a holy people unto Jehovah thy God and thee hath Jehovah chosen for a people of possession unto himself, out of all the peoples that are upon the face of the earth.

3. Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.

4. These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat;

5. the hart, and the gazelle, and the stag, and the wild goat, and the dishon and the oryx, and the wild sheep.

6. And every beast that hath cloven hoofs, and the feet quite split open into double hoofs, and which cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that ye shall eat.

7. Only these ye shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those with hoofs cloven and split open: the camel, and the hare, and the rock-badger; for they chew the cud, but have not cloven hoofs--they shall be unclean unto you;

8. and the swine, for it hath cloven hoofs, yet cheweth not the cud--it shall be unclean unto you. Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch.

9. These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales shall ye eat;

10. but whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye shall not eat: it shall be unclean unto you.

11. All clean birds shall ye eat.

12. But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the sea-eagle,

13. and the falcon, and the kite, and the black kite after its kind;

14. and every raven after its kind;
