Leviticus 11:37-47 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

37. And if any part of their carcass fall upon any sowing seed which is to be sown, it shall be clean.

38. But if any water be put upon the seed, and any part of their carcass fall thereon, it shall be unclean unto you.

39. And if any animal, of which you may eat, dies; he that touches the carcass thereof shall be unclean until the evening.

40. And he that eats of the carcass of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening: he also that bears the carcass of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.

41. And every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth shall be an abomination; it shall not be eaten.

42. Whatsoever goes upon the belly, and whatsoever goes upon all fours, or whatsoever has many feet among all creeping things that creep upon the earth, them you shall not eat; for they are an abomination.

43. You shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creeps, neither shall you make yourselves unclean with them, that you should be defiled by them.

44. For I am the LORD your God: you shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and you shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall you defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.

45. For I am the LORD that brings you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: you shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.

46. This is the law of the animals, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps upon the earth:

47. To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the animal that may be eaten and the animal that may not be eaten.
