chapter 14
1
Be ye
children of the Lord your God: you shall not cut yourselves, no, make any
baldness for the dead;
2 Because thou art a holy people to the Lord thy God:
and he chose thee to be his peculiar people of all nations that are upon the
earth.
3 Eat not the things that are unclean.
4 These are the beasts that you shall eat, the ox, and
the sheep, and the goat,
5 The hart and the roe, the buffle, the chamois, the
pygarg, the wild goat, the camelopardalus.
6 Every beast that divideth the hoof in two parts, and
cheweth the cud, you shall eat.
7 But of them that chew the cud, but divide not the
hoof, you shall not eat, such as the camel, the hare, and the cherogril:
because they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof, they shall be unclean to
you.
8 The swine also, because it divideth the hoof, but
cheweth not the cud, shall be unclean, their flesh you shall not eat, and their
carcasses you shall not touch.
9 These shall you eat of all that abide in the waters:
All that have fins and scales, you shall eat.
10 Such as are without fins and scales, you shall not
eat, because they are unclean.
11 All birds that are clean you shall eat.
12 The unclean eat not: to wit, the eagle, and the
grype, and the osprey,
13 The ringtail, and the vulture, and the kite
according to their kind:
14 And all of the raven's kind:
15 And the ostrich, and the owl, and the larus, and the
hawk according to its kind:
16 The heron, and the swan, and the stork,
17 And the cormorant, the porphirion, and the night
crow,
18 The bittern, and the charadrion, every one in their
kind: the hoop also and the bat.
19 Every thing that creepeth, and hath little wings,
shall be unclean, and shall not be eaten.
20 All that is clean, you shall eat.
21 But whatsoever is dead of itself, eat not thereof.
Give it to the stranger, that is within thy gates, to eat, or sell it to him:
because thou art the holy people of the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid
in the milk of his dam.
22 Every year thou shalt set aside the tithes of all
thy fruits that the earth bringeth forth,
23 And thou shalt eat before the Lord thy God in the
place which he shall choose, that his name may be called upon therein, the
tithe of thy corn, and thy wine, and thy oil, and the firstborn of thy herds
and thy sheep: that thou mayst learn to fear the Lord thy God at all times.
24 But when the way and the place which the Lord thy
God shall choose, are far off, and he hath blessed thee, and thou canst not
carry all these things thither,
25 Thou shalt sell them all, and turn them into money,
and shalt carry it in thy hand, and shalt go to the place which the Lord shall
choose :
26 And thou shalt buy with the same money whatsoever
pleaseth thee, either of the herds or of sheep, wine also and strong drink, and
all that thy soul desireth: and thou shalt eat before the Lord thy God, and
shalt feast, thou and thy house:
27 And the Levite that is within thy gates, beware thou
forsake him not, because he hath no other part in thy possession.
28 The third year thou shalt separate another tithe of
all things that grow to thee at that time, and shalt lay it up within thy
gates.
29 And the Levite that hath no other part nor
possession with thee, and the stranger and the fatherless and the widow, that
are within thy gates, shall come and shall eat and be filled: that the Lord thy
God may bless thee in all the works of thy hands that thou shalt do.
