1 You are the children of Yahweh your God. You shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead. 2 For you are a holy people to Yahweh your God, and Yahweh has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.

3 You shall not eat any abominable thing. 4 These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat, 5 the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the chamois. 6 Every animal that parts the hoof, and has the hoof split in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat. 7 Nevertheless these you shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of those who have the hoof split: the camel, the hare, and the rabbit. Because they chew the cud but don’t part the hoof, they are unclean to you. 8 The pig, because it has a split hoof but doesn’t chew the cud, is unclean to you. You shall not eat their meat. You shall not touch their carcasses. 9 These you may eat of all that are in the waters: you may eat whatever has fins and scales. 10 You shall not eat whatever doesn’t have fins and scales. It is unclean to you. 11 Of all clean birds you may eat. 12 But these are they of which you shall not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the osprey, 13 the red kite, the falcon, the kite of any kind, 14 every raven of any kind, 15 the ostrich, the owl, the seagull, the hawk of any kind, 16 the little owl, the great owl, the horned owl, 17 the pelican, the vulture, the cormorant, 18 the stork, the heron after its kind, the hoopoe, and the bat. 19 All winged creeping things are unclean to you. They shall not be eaten. 20 Of all clean birds you may eat.

21 You shall not eat of anything that dies of itself. You may give it to the foreigner living among you who is within your gates, that he may eat it; or you may sell it to a foreigner; for you are a holy people to Yahweh your God.

You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.

22 You shall surely tithe all the increase of your seed, that which comes out of the field year by year. 23 You shall eat before Yahweh your God, in the place which he chooses to cause his name to dwell, the tithe of your grain, of your new wine, and of your oil, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock; that you may learn to fear Yahweh your God always. 24 If the way is too long for you, so that you are not able to carry it because the place which Yahweh your God shall choose to set his name there is too far from you, when Yahweh your God blesses you, 25 then you shall turn it into money, bind up the money in your hand, and shall go to the place which Yahweh your God shall choose. 26 You shall trade the money for whatever your soul desires: for cattle, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatever your soul asks of you. You shall eat there before Yahweh your God, and you shall rejoice, you and your household. 27 You shall not forsake the Levite who is within your gates, for he has no portion nor inheritance with you. 28 At the end of every three years you shall bring all the tithe of your increase in the same year, and shall store it within your gates. 29 The Levite, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you, as well as the foreigner living among you, the fatherless, and the widow who are within your gates shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that Yahweh your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.

1 Ye [are] the sons of the LORD your God: ye shall not cut yourselves nor make any baldness over your eyes for the dead.

2 For thou [art] a holy people unto the LORD thy God, and the LORD has chosen thee to be a unique people unto himself from among all the peoples that [are] upon the face of the earth.

3 Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.

4 These [are] the animals which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,

5 the hart and the roebuck and the buffalo and the wild goat and the unicorn (rhinoceros) and the wild ox and the mountain goat,

6 and every animal that parts the hoof and cleaves the cleft into two claws [and] chews the cud among the beasts that ye shall eat.

7 Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of those that chew the cud or of those that divide the cloven hoof: the camel and the hare and the coney, for they chew the cud, but do not divide the hoof; [therefore] they [are] unclean unto you;

8 and the swine, because it divides the hoof, yet does not chew the cud, it is unclean unto you. Ye shall not eat of their flesh nor touch their dead carcase.

9 These ye shall eat of all that [are] in the waters: all that have fins and scales shall ye eat,

10 but whatever does not have fins and scales ye may not eat; it [is] unclean unto you.

11 [Of] all clean birds ye shall eat.

12 But these [are they] of which ye shall not eat: the eagle and the ossifrage and the ospray

13 and the glede and the kite and the vulture after his kind

14 and every raven after his kind

15 and the owl and the night hawk and the cuckow and the hawk after his kind

16 the little owl and the great owl and the swan

17 and the pelican and the gier eagle and the cormorant

18 and the stork and the heron after her kind and the lapwing and the bat.

19 And every serpent that flies [shall be] unclean unto you; they shall not be eaten.

20 [But of] all clean fowls ye may eat.

21 Ye shall not eat [of] any thing that died of itself; thou shalt give it unto the stranger that [is] in thy gates that he may eat it, or thou may sell it unto an alien; for thou [art] a holy people unto the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not cook a kid in his mother's milk.

22 Thou shalt without fail tithe all the increase of thy seed that [thy] field brings forth each year.

23 And thou shalt eat before the LORD thy God in the place which he shall choose for his name to dwell, the tithe of thy grain, of thy wine, and of thine oil, and the firstborn of thy cows and of thy sheep, that thou may learn to fear the LORD thy God always.

24 And if the way is too long for thee, so that thou art not able to carry it, [or] if the place is [too] far from thee, which the LORD thy God shall choose to set his name there, when the LORD thy God has blessed thee,

25 then shalt thou sell [it] for money and bind up the money in thy hand and shalt go unto the place which the LORD thy God shall choose;

26 and thou shalt give that money for whatever thy soul desires, for cows or for sheep or for wine or for strong drink or for whatever thy soul desires; and thou shalt eat there before the LORD thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou and thine household.

27 And thou shalt not forsake the Levite that [dwells] within thy gates, for he has no part nor inheritance with thee.

28 At the end of three years thou shalt bring forth all the tithe of thine increase the same year and shalt lay [it] up within thy gates.

29 And the Levite, who has no part nor inheritance with thee, and the stranger and the fatherless and the widow who [are] within thy gates, shall come and shall eat and be satisfied, that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thy hands which thou doest.:
