1 And the Lorde spake vnto Moyses and Aaron, and sayde vnto them: 2 Speake vnto the chyldren of Israel, and say: These are the beastes whiche ye shall eate, among all the beastes that are on the earth. 3 Whatsoeuer parteth the hoofe, and is clouen footed, and chaweth cud among the beastes, that shall ye eate. 4 Neuerthelesse, these shall ye not eate, of them that chawe cud, and deuideth the hoofe: onlye as is the Camell, whiche chaweth cud, but he deuideth not the hoofe, therefore is he vncleane vnto you. 5 Euen so the Connie whiche chaweth the cud, but deuideth not the hoofe, he is vncleane to you. 6 And the Hare, though he chaweth the cud, yet because he deuideth not ye hoofe, he is therefore vncleane to you. 7 And agayne the Swyne, though he deuide the hoofe, and is clouen footed, yet he chaweth not the cud, he is vncleane to you. 8 Of their fleshe shall ye not eate, and their carkasses shall ye not touche: but let them be vncleane to you.
