1The LORD spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying to them,1וַיְדַבֵּ֧ר יְהוָ֛ה אֶל־ מֹשֶׁ֥ה וְאֶֽל־ אַהֲרֹ֖ן לֵאמֹ֥ר אֲלֵהֶֽם׃
2"Tell the Israelites: 'This is the kind of creature you may eat from among all the animals that are on the land.2דַּבְּר֛וּ אֶל־ בְּנֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל לֵאמֹ֑ר זֹ֤את הַֽחַיָּה֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר תֹּאכְל֔וּ מִכָּל־ הַבְּהֵמָ֖ה אֲשֶׁ֥ר עַל־ הָאָֽרֶץ׃
3You may eat any among the animals that has a divided hoof (the hooves are completely split in two) and that also chews the cud.3כֹּ֣ל ׀ מַפְרֶ֣סֶת פַּרְסָ֗ה וְשֹׁסַ֤עַת שֶׁ֙סַע֙ פְּרָסֹ֔ת מַעֲלַ֥ת גֵּרָ֖ה בַּבְּהֵמָ֑ה אֹתָ֖הּ תֹּאכֵֽלוּ׃
4However, you must not eat these from among those that chew the cud and have divided hooves: The camel is unclean to you because it chews the cud even though its hoof is not divided.4אַ֤ךְ אֶת־ זֶה֙ לֹ֣א תֹֽאכְל֔וּ מִֽמַּעֲלֵי֙ הַגֵּרָ֔ה וּמִמַּפְרִיסֵ֖י הַפַּרְסָ֑ה אֶֽת־ הַ֠גָּמָל כִּֽי־ מַעֲלֵ֨ה גֵרָ֜ה ה֗וּא וּפַרְסָה֙ אֵינֶ֣נּוּ מַפְרִ֔יס טָמֵ֥א ה֖וּא לָכֶֽם׃
5The rock badger is unclean to you because it chews the cud even though its hoof is not divided.5וְאֶת־ הַשָּׁפָ֗ן כִּֽי־ מַעֲלֵ֤ה גֵרָה֙ ה֔וּא וּפַרְסָ֖ה לֹ֣א יַפְרִ֑יס טָמֵ֥א ה֖וּא לָכֶֽם׃
6The hare is unclean to you because it chews the cud even though its hoof is not divided.6וְאֶת־ הָאַרְנֶ֗בֶת כִּֽי־ מַעֲלַ֤ת גֵּרָה֙ הִ֔וא וּפַרְסָ֖ה לֹ֣א הִפְרִ֑יסָה טְמֵאָ֥ה הִ֖וא לָכֶֽם׃
7The pig is unclean to you because its hoof is divided (the hoof is completely split in two), even though it does not chew the cud.7וְאֶת־ הַ֠חֲזִיר כִּֽי־ מַפְרִ֨יס פַּרְסָ֜ה ה֗וּא וְשֹׁסַ֥ע שֶׁ֙סַע֙ פַּרְסָ֔ה וְה֖וּא גֵּרָ֣ה לֹֽא־ יִגָּ֑ר טָמֵ֥א ה֖וּא לָכֶֽם׃
8You must not eat from their meat and you must not touch their carcasses; they are unclean to you. 8מִבְּשָׂרָם֙ לֹ֣א תֹאכֵ֔לוּ וּבְנִבְלָתָ֖ם לֹ֣א תִגָּ֑עוּ טְמֵאִ֥ים הֵ֖ם לָכֶֽם׃
9"'These you can eat from all creatures that are in the water: Any creatures in the water that have both fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the streams, you may eat.9אֶת־ זֶה֙ תֹּֽאכְל֔וּ מִכֹּ֖ל אֲשֶׁ֣ר בַּמָּ֑יִם כֹּ֣ל אֲשֶׁר־ לוֹ֩ סְנַפִּ֨יר וְקַשְׂקֶ֜שֶׂת בַּמַּ֗יִם בַּיַּמִּ֛ים וּבַנְּחָלִ֖ים אֹתָ֥ם תֹּאכֵֽלוּ׃
10But any creatures that do not have both fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the streams, from all the swarming things of the water and from all the living creatures that are in the water, are detestable to you.10וְכֹל֩ אֲשֶׁ֨ר אֵֽין־ ל֜וֹ סְנַפִּ֣יר וְקַשְׂקֶ֗שֶׂת בַּיַּמִּים֙ וּבַנְּחָלִ֔ים מִכֹּל֙ שֶׁ֣רֶץ הַמַּ֔יִם וּמִכֹּ֛ל נֶ֥פֶשׁ הַחַיָּ֖ה אֲשֶׁ֣ר בַּמָּ֑יִם שֶׁ֥קֶץ הֵ֖ם לָכֶֽם׃
11Since they are detestable to you, you must not eat their meat and their carcass you must detest.11וְשֶׁ֖קֶץ יִהְי֣וּ לָכֶ֑ם מִבְּשָׂרָם֙ לֹ֣א תֹאכֵ֔לוּ וְאֶת־ נִבְלָתָ֖ם תְּשַׁקֵּֽצוּ׃
12Any creature in the water that does not have both fins and scales is detestable to you. 12כֹּ֣ל אֲשֶׁ֥ר אֵֽין־ ל֛וֹ סְנַפִּ֥יר וְקַשְׂקֶ֖שֶׂת בַּמָּ֑יִם שֶׁ֥קֶץ ה֖וּא לָכֶֽם׃
13"'These you are to detest from among the birds--they must not be eaten, because they are detestable: the griffon vulture, the bearded vulture, the black vulture,13וְאֶת־ אֵ֙לֶּה֙ תְּשַׁקְּצ֣וּ מִן־ הָע֔וֹף לֹ֥א יֵאָכְל֖וּ שֶׁ֣קֶץ הֵ֑ם אֶת־ הַנֶּ֙שֶׁר֙ וְאֶת־ הַפֶּ֔רֶס וְאֵ֖ת הָעָזְנִיָּֽה׃
14the kite, the buzzard of any kind,14וְאֶת־ הַ֨דָּאָ֔ה וְאֶת־ הָאַיָּ֖ה לְמִינָֽהּ׃
15every kind of crow,15אֵ֥ת כָּל־ עֹרֵ֖ב לְמִינֽוֹ׃
16the eagle owl, the short-eared owl, the long-eared owl, the hawk of any kind,16וְאֵת֙ בַּ֣ת הַֽיַּעֲנָ֔ה וְאֶת־ הַתַּחְמָ֖ס וְאֶת־ הַשָּׁ֑חַף וְאֶת־ הַנֵּ֖ץ לְמִינֵֽהוּ׃
17the little owl, the cormorant, the screech owl,17וְאֶת־ הַכּ֥וֹס וְאֶת־ הַשָּׁלָ֖ךְ וְאֶת־ הַיַּנְשֽׁוּף׃
18the white owl, the scops owl, the osprey,18וְאֶת־ הַתִּנְשֶׁ֥מֶת וְאֶת־ הַקָּאָ֖ת וְאֶת־ הָרָחָֽם׃
19the stork, the heron of any kind, the hoopoe, and the bat. 19וְאֵת֙ הַחֲסִידָ֔ה הָאֲנָפָ֖ה לְמִינָ֑הּ וְאֶת־ הַדּוּכִיפַ֖ת וְאֶת־ הָעֲטַלֵּֽף׃
20"'Every winged swarming thing that walks on all fours is detestable to you.20כֹּ֚ל שֶׁ֣רֶץ הָע֔וֹף הַהֹלֵ֖ךְ עַל־ אַרְבַּ֑ע שֶׁ֥קֶץ ה֖וּא לָכֶֽם׃ ס
21However, this you may eat from all the winged swarming things that walk on all fours, which have jointed legs to hop with on the land.21אַ֤ךְ אֶת־ זֶה֙ תֹּֽאכְל֔וּ מִכֹּל֙ שֶׁ֣רֶץ הָע֔וֹף הַהֹלֵ֖ךְ עַל־ אַרְבַּ֑ע אֲשֶׁר־ [לא] (ל֤וֹ) כְרָעַ֙יִם֙ מִמַּ֣עַל לְרַגְלָ֔יו לְנַתֵּ֥ר בָּהֵ֖ן עַל־ הָאָֽרֶץ׃
22These you may eat from them: the locust of any kind, the bald locust of any kind, the cricket of any kind, the grasshopper of any kind.22אֶת־ אֵ֤לֶּה מֵהֶם֙ תֹּאכֵ֔לוּ אֶת־ הָֽאַרְבֶּ֣ה לְמִינ֔וֹ וְאֶת־ הַסָּלְעָ֖ם לְמִינֵ֑הוּ וְאֶת־ הַחַרְגֹּ֣ל לְמִינֵ֔הוּ וְאֶת־ הֶחָגָ֖ב לְמִינֵֽהוּ׃
23But any other winged swarming thing that has four legs is detestable to you. 23וְכֹל֙ שֶׁ֣רֶץ הָע֔וֹף אֲשֶׁר־ ל֖וֹ אַרְבַּ֣ע רַגְלָ֑יִם שֶׁ֥קֶץ ה֖וּא לָכֶֽם׃
24"'By these you defile yourselves; anyone who touches their carcass will be unclean until the evening,24וּלְאֵ֖לֶּה תִּטַּמָּ֑אוּ כָּל־ הַנֹּגֵ֥עַ בְּנִבְלָתָ֖ם יִטְמָ֥א עַד־ הָעָֽרֶב׃
25and anyone who carries their carcass must wash his clothes and will be unclean until the evening. 25וְכָל־ הַנֹּשֵׂ֖א מִנִּבְלָתָ֑ם יְכַבֵּ֥ס בְּגָדָ֖יו וְטָמֵ֥א עַד־ הָעָֽרֶב׃
26"'All animals that divide the hoof but it is not completely split in two and do not chew the cud are unclean to you; anyone who touches them becomes unclean.26לְֽכָל־ הַבְּהֵמָ֡ה אֲשֶׁ֣ר הִוא֩ מַפְרֶ֨סֶת פַּרְסָ֜ה וְשֶׁ֣סַע ׀ אֵינֶ֣נָּה שֹׁסַ֗עַת וְגֵרָה֙ אֵינֶ֣נָּה מַעֲלָ֔ה טְמֵאִ֥ים הֵ֖ם לָכֶ֑ם כָּל־ הַנֹּגֵ֥עַ בָּהֶ֖ם יִטְמָֽא׃
27All that walk on their paws among all the creatures that walk on all fours are unclean to you. Anyone who touches their carcass will be unclean until the evening,27וְכֹ֣ל ׀ הוֹלֵ֣ךְ עַל־ כַּפָּ֗יו בְּכָל־ הַֽחַיָּה֙ הַהֹלֶ֣כֶת עַל־ אַרְבַּ֔ע טְמֵאִ֥ים הֵ֖ם לָכֶ֑ם כָּל־ הַנֹּגֵ֥עַ בְּנִבְלָתָ֖ם יִטְמָ֥א עַד־ הָעָֽרֶב׃
28and the one who carries their carcass must wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening; they are unclean to you. 28וְהַנֹּשֵׂא֙ אֶת־ נִבְלָתָ֔ם יְכַבֵּ֥ס בְּגָדָ֖יו וְטָמֵ֣א עַד־ הָעָ֑רֶב טְמֵאִ֥ים הֵ֖מָּה לָכֶֽם׃ ס
29"'Now this is what is unclean to you among the swarming things that swarm on the land: the rat, the mouse, the large lizard of any kind,29וְזֶ֤ה לָכֶם֙ הַטָּמֵ֔א בַּשֶּׁ֖רֶץ הַשֹּׁרֵ֣ץ עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ הַחֹ֥לֶד וְהָעַכְבָּ֖ר וְהַצָּ֥ב לְמִינֵֽהוּ׃
30the Mediterranean gecko, the spotted lizard, the wall gecko, the skink, and the chameleon.30וְהָאֲנָקָ֥ה וְהַכֹּ֖חַ וְהַלְּטָאָ֑ה וְהַחֹ֖מֶט וְהַתִּנְשָֽׁמֶת׃
31These are the ones that are unclean to you among all the swarming things. Anyone who touches them when they die will be unclean until evening.31אֵ֛לֶּה הַטְּמֵאִ֥ים לָכֶ֖ם בְּכָל־ הַשָּׁ֑רֶץ כָּל־ הַנֹּגֵ֧עַ בָּהֶ֛ם בְּמֹתָ֖ם יִטְמָ֥א עַד־ הָעָֽרֶב׃
32Also, anything they fall on when they die will become unclean--any wood vessel or garment or article of leather or sackcloth. Any such vessel with which work is done must be immersed in water and will be unclean until the evening. Then it will become clean.32וְכֹ֣ל אֲשֶׁר־ יִפֹּל־ עָלָיו֩ מֵהֶ֨ם ׀ בְּמֹתָ֜ם יִטְמָ֗א מִכָּל־ כְּלִי־ עֵץ֙ א֣וֹ בֶ֤גֶד אוֹ־ עוֹר֙ א֣וֹ שָׂ֔ק כָּל־ כְּלִ֕י אֲשֶׁר־ יֵעָשֶׂ֥ה מְלָאכָ֖ה בָּהֶ֑ם בַּמַּ֧יִם יוּבָ֛א וְטָמֵ֥א עַד־ הָעֶ֖רֶב וְטָהֵֽר׃
33As for any clay vessel they fall into, everything in it will become unclean and you must break it.33וְכָל־ כְּלִי־ חֶ֔רֶשׂ אֲשֶׁר־ יִפֹּ֥ל מֵהֶ֖ם אֶל־ תּוֹכ֑וֹ כֹּ֣ל אֲשֶׁ֧ר בְּתוֹכ֛וֹ יִטְמָ֖א וְאֹת֥וֹ תִשְׁבֹּֽרוּ׃
34Any food that may be eaten which becomes soaked with water will become unclean. Anything drinkable in any such vessel will become unclean.34מִכָּל־ הָאֹ֜כֶל אֲשֶׁ֣ר יֵאָכֵ֗ל אֲשֶׁ֨ר יָב֥וֹא עָלָ֛יו מַ֖יִם יִטְמָ֑א וְכָל־ מַשְׁקֶה֙ אֲשֶׁ֣ר יִשָּׁתֶ֔ה בְּכָל־ כְּלִ֖י יִטְמָֽא׃
35Anything their carcass may fall on will become unclean. An oven or small stove must be smashed to pieces; they are unclean, and they will stay unclean to you.35וְ֠כֹל אֲשֶׁר־ יִפֹּ֨ל מִנִּבְלָתָ֥ם ׀ עָלָיו֮ יִטְמָא֒ תַּנּ֧וּר וְכִירַ֛יִם יֻתָּ֖ץ טְמֵאִ֣ים הֵ֑ם וּטְמֵאִ֖ים יִהְי֥וּ לָכֶֽם׃
36However, a spring or a cistern which collects water will be clean, but one who touches their carcass will be unclean.36אַ֣ךְ מַעְיָ֥ן וּב֛וֹר מִקְוֵה־ מַ֖יִם יִהְיֶ֣ה טָה֑וֹר וְנֹגֵ֥עַ בְּנִבְלָתָ֖ם יִטְמָֽא׃
37Now, if such a carcass falls on any sowing seed which is to be sown, it is clean,37וְכִ֤י יִפֹּל֙ מִנִּבְלָתָ֔ם עַל־ כָּל־ זֶ֥רַע זֵר֖וּעַ אֲשֶׁ֣ר יִזָּרֵ֑עַ טָה֖וֹר הֽוּא׃
38but if water is put on the seed and such a carcass falls on it, it is unclean to you. 38וְכִ֤י יֻתַּן־ מַ֙יִם֙ עַל־ זֶ֔רַע וְנָפַ֥ל מִנִּבְלָתָ֖ם עָלָ֑יו טָמֵ֥א ה֖וּא לָכֶֽם׃ ס
39"'Now if an animal that you may eat dies, whoever touches its carcass will be unclean until the evening.39וְכִ֤י יָמוּת֙ מִן־ הַבְּהֵמָ֔ה אֲשֶׁר־ הִ֥יא לָכֶ֖ם לְאָכְלָ֑ה הַנֹּגֵ֥עַ בְּנִבְלָתָ֖הּ יִטְמָ֥א עַד־ הָעָֽרֶב׃
40One who eats from its carcass must wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening, and whoever carries its carcass must wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening.40וְהָֽאֹכֵל֙ מִנִּבְלָתָ֔הּ יְכַבֵּ֥ס בְּגָדָ֖יו וְטָמֵ֣א עַד־ הָעָ֑רֶב וְהַנֹּשֵׂא֙ אֶת־ נִבְלָתָ֔הּ יְכַבֵּ֥ס בְּגָדָ֖יו וְטָמֵ֥א עַד־ הָעָֽרֶב׃
41Every swarming thing that swarms on the land is detestable; it must not be eaten.41וְכָל־ הַשֶּׁ֖רֶץ הַשֹּׁרֵ֣ץ עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ שֶׁ֥קֶץ ה֖וּא לֹ֥א יֵאָכֵֽל׃
42You must not eat anything that crawls on its belly or anything that walks on all fours or on any number of legs of all the swarming things that swarm on the land, because they are detestable.42כֹּל֩ הוֹלֵ֨ךְ עַל־ גָּח֜וֹ‪‬ן וְכֹ֣ל ׀ הוֹלֵ֣ךְ עַל־ אַרְבַּ֗ע עַ֚ד כָּל־ מַרְבֵּ֣ה רַגְלַ֔יִם לְכָל־ הַשֶּׁ֖רֶץ הַשֹּׁרֵ֣ץ עַל־ הָאָ֑רֶץ לֹ֥א תֹאכְל֖וּם כִּי־ שֶׁ֥קֶץ הֵֽם׃
43Do not make yourselves detestable by any of the swarming things. You must not defile yourselves by them and become unclean by them,43אַל־ תְּשַׁקְּצוּ֙ אֶת־ נַפְשֹׁ֣תֵיכֶ֔ם בְּכָל־ הַשֶּׁ֖רֶץ הַשֹּׁרֵ֑ץ וְלֹ֤א תִֽטַּמְּאוּ֙ בָּהֶ֔ם וְנִטְמֵתֶ֖ם בָּֽם׃
44for I am the LORD your God and you are to sanctify yourselves and be holy because I am holy. You must not defile yourselves by any of the swarming things that creep on the ground,44כִּ֣י אֲנִ֣י יְהוָה֮ אֱלֹֽהֵיכֶם֒ וְהִתְקַדִּשְׁתֶּם֙ וִהְיִיתֶ֣ם קְדֹשִׁ֔ים כִּ֥י קָד֖וֹשׁ אָ֑נִי וְלֹ֤א תְטַמְּאוּ֙ אֶת־ נַפְשֹׁ֣תֵיכֶ֔ם בְּכָל־ הַשֶּׁ֖רֶץ הָרֹמֵ֥שׂ עַל־ הָאָֽרֶץ׃
45for I am the LORD who brought you up from the land of Egypt to be your God, and you are to be holy because I am holy.45כִּ֣י ׀ אֲנִ֣י יְהוָ֗ה הַֽמַּעֲלֶ֤ה אֶתְכֶם֙ מֵאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרַ֔יִם לִהְיֹ֥ת לָכֶ֖ם לֵאלֹהִ֑ים וִהְיִיתֶ֣ם קְדֹשִׁ֔ים כִּ֥י קָד֖וֹשׁ אָֽנִי׃
46This is the law of the land animals, the birds, all the living creatures that move in the water, and all the creatures that swarm on the land,46זֹ֣את תּוֹרַ֤ת הַבְּהֵמָה֙ וְהָע֔וֹף וְכֹל֙ נֶ֣פֶשׁ הַֽחַיָּ֔ה הָרֹמֶ֖שֶׂת בַּמָּ֑יִם וּלְכָל־ נֶ֖פֶשׁ הַשֹּׁרֶ֥צֶת עַל־ הָאָֽרֶץ׃
47to distinguish between the unclean and the clean, between the living creatures that may be eaten and the living creatures that must not be eaten.'" 47לְהַבְדִּ֕יל בֵּ֥ין הַטָּמֵ֖א וּבֵ֣ין הַטָּהֹ֑ר וּבֵ֤ין הַֽחַיָּה֙ הַֽנֶּאֱכֶ֔לֶת וּבֵין֙ הַֽחַיָּ֔ה אֲשֶׁ֖ר לֹ֥א תֵאָכֵֽל׃ פ
