Scriptures

New King James Version (NKJV)

Deuteronomy 14
⁵ the deer, the gazelle, the roe deer, the wild goat, the mountain goat, the antelope, and the mountain sheep.
⁶ And you may eat every animal with cloven hooves, having the hoof split into two parts, and that chews the cud, among the animals.
⁷ Nevertheless, of those that chew the cud or have cloven hooves, you shall not eat, such as these: the camel, the hare, and the rock hyrax; for they chew the cud but do not have cloven hooves; they are unclean for you.
⁸ Also the swine is unclean for you, because it has cloven hooves, yet does not chew the cud; you shall not eat their flesh or touch their dead carcasses.
⁹ "These you may eat of all that are in the waters: you may eat all that have fins and scales.
¹⁰ And whatever does not have fins and scales you shall not eat; it is unclean for you.
¹¹ "All clean birds you may eat.
¹² But these you shall not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the buzzard,
¹³ the red kite, the falcon, and the kite after their kinds;
¹⁴ every raven after its kind;
¹⁵ the ostrich, the short-eared owl, the seagull, and the hawk after their kinds;
