利未记 11
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
有关食物的条例
11 耶和华对摩西和亚伦说： 2 “你们把以下条例告诉以色列人。
“地上的动物， 3 凡是蹄子分瓣且反刍的，你们都可以吃。 4 但你们不可吃只有蹄子分瓣或只反刍的动物。骆驼不洁净，因为它虽反刍但蹄子不分瓣； 5 獾不洁净，因为它虽反刍但蹄子不分瓣； 6 野兔不洁净，因为它虽反刍但蹄子不分瓣； 7 猪不洁净，因为它蹄子虽分瓣但不反刍。 8 你们不可吃它们的肉，也不可摸它们的尸体，因为它们对你们来说不洁净。
9 “海洋与河流里的动物，凡有鳍有鳞的，你们都可以吃。 10 但海洋与河流里无鳍无鳞的动物，你们要憎恶。 11 它们都是可憎之物，不可吃它们的肉，也不可摸它们的尸体。 12 水中任何无鳍无鳞的动物，你们都要视为可憎之物。
13 “你们不可吃以下鸟类，要视为可憎之物。它们是雕、胡兀鹫、黑秃鹫、 14 鸢、隼类、 15 乌鸦类、 16 驼鸟、夜鹰、海鸥、鹰类、 17 小鸮、鸬鹚、大鸮、 18 仓鸮、鹈鹕、鱼鹰、 19 鹳、鹭鸟类、戴胜和蝙蝠。
20 “你们要憎恶会飞会爬的昆虫， 21 但可以吃会飞会跳的昆虫， 22 包括蝗虫、蟋蟀和蚱蜢。 23 所有会飞会爬的昆虫，你们要视为可憎之物。
24 “以下的动物会使你们不洁净。任何人接触到它们的尸体，都不洁净，要等到傍晚才能洁净。 25 任何人拿它们的尸体，都必须洗净所穿的衣服，要等到傍晚才能洁净。 26 蹄子不分瓣或不反刍的动物，你们要视为不洁净，碰到它们的人都不洁净。 27 所有以脚掌走路的四足动物，你们要视为不洁净，碰到它们尸体的人都不洁净，要等到傍晚才能洁净。 28 凡拿它们尸体的人都必须洗净所穿的衣服，要等到傍晚才能洁净。你们要视它们为不洁净的动物。
29 “地上不洁净的动物有鼬鼠、老鼠、大蜥蜴、 30 壁虎、巨蜥、小蜥蜴和变色龙。 31 这些爬虫都是不洁净的。任何人碰到它们的尸体，都不洁净，要等到傍晚才能洁净。 32 如果它们的尸体掉在什么东西上，不管是木器、衣物、皮件还是袋子，不管作何用途，都会变得不洁净。要把那东西放在水中，一直到傍晚才能洁净。 33 如果它们的尸体掉在陶器里，陶器里盛的东西都不洁净。你们必须打碎那陶器。 34 陶器里的水如果滴到食物上，食物就不洁净；如果滴到盛饮料的器皿里，饮料也不洁净。 35 它们的尸体无论掉在什么东西上，那东西都不洁净，无论是炉是锅都要打碎。 36 如果它们的尸体掉进水泉或储水池里，水泉和储水池仍然是洁净的，但碰到尸体的人是不洁净的。 37 如果它们的尸体接触到将要播撒的种子，种子仍是洁净的。 38 但如果它们的尸体碰到泡过水的种子，种子就不洁净。
39 “一只可以食用的动物死后，任何人如果碰到它的尸体，都不洁净，要等到傍晚才能洁净。 40 任何人如果吃它的肉，或拿它的尸体，都必须洗净衣服，等到傍晚才能洁净。
41 “所有地上的爬虫都是可憎的，你们不可吃。 42 你们不可吃用肚子、四脚或多脚爬行的动物，这些都是可憎的。 43 你们不可让这些动物玷污自己，使自己不洁净。 44 我是你们的上帝耶和华。你们要分别出来做圣洁的人，因为我是圣洁的。你们不可让地上的爬虫玷污自己。 45 我是耶和华，我带你们离开埃及，为要做你们的上帝。你们要圣洁，因为我是圣洁的。
46 “以上是有关飞禽走兽、水族和地上一切爬虫的条例， 47 使你们可以分清什么是洁净的、什么是不洁净的、什么是可吃的、什么是不可吃的。”
Leviticus 11
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
Clean and Unclean Foods
11 The Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron, saying to them: 2 Speak to the people of Israel, saying:
From among all the land animals, these are the creatures that you may eat. 3 Any animal that has divided hoofs and is cloven-footed and chews the cud—such you may eat. 4 But among those that chew the cud or have divided hoofs, you shall not eat the following: the camel, for even though it chews the cud, it does not have divided hoofs; it is unclean for you. 5 The rock-badger, for even though it chews the cud, it does not have divided hoofs; it is unclean for you. 6 The hare, for even though it chews the cud, it does not have divided hoofs; it is unclean for you. 7 The pig, for even though it has divided hoofs and is cloven-footed, it does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you. 8 Of their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch; they are unclean for you.
9 These you may eat, of all that are in the waters. Everything in the waters that has fins and scales, whether in the seas or in the streams—such you may eat. 10 But anything in the seas or the streams that does not have fins and scales, of the swarming creatures in the waters and among all the other living creatures that are in the waters—they are detestable to you 11 and detestable they shall remain. Of their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall regard as detestable. 12 Everything in the waters that does not have fins and scales is detestable to you.
13 These you shall regard as detestable among the birds. They shall not be eaten; they are an abomination: the eagle, the vulture, the osprey, 14 the buzzard, the kite of any kind; 15 every raven of any kind; 16 the ostrich, the nighthawk, the seagull, the hawk of any kind; 17 the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl, 18 the water-hen, the desert-owl,[a] the carrion vulture, 19 the stork, the heron of any kind, the hoopoe, and the bat.[b]
20 All winged insects that walk upon all fours are detestable to you. 21 But among the winged insects that walk on all fours you may eat those that have jointed legs above their feet, with which to leap on the ground. 22 Of them you may eat: the locust according to its kind, the bald locust according to its kind, the cricket according to its kind, and the grasshopper according to its kind. 23 But all other winged insects that have four feet are detestable to you.
Unclean Animals
24 By these you shall become unclean; whoever touches the carcass of any of them shall be unclean until the evening, 25 and whoever carries any part of the carcass of any of them shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening. 26 Every animal that has divided hoofs but is not cloven-footed or does not chew the cud is unclean for you; everyone who touches one of them shall be unclean. 27 All that walk on their paws, among the animals that walk on all fours, are unclean for you; whoever touches the carcass of any of them shall be unclean until the evening, 28 and the one who carries the carcass shall wash his clothes and be unclean until the evening; they are unclean for you.
29 These are unclean for you among the creatures that swarm upon the earth: the weasel, the mouse, the great lizard according to its kind, 30 the gecko, the land-crocodile, the lizard, the sand-lizard, and the chameleon. 31 These are unclean for you among all that swarm; whoever touches one of them when they are dead shall be unclean until the evening. 32 And anything upon which any of them falls when they are dead shall be unclean, whether an article of wood or cloth or skin or sacking, any article that is used for any purpose; it shall be dipped into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening, and then it shall be clean. 33 And if any of them falls into any earthen vessel, all that is in it shall be unclean, and you shall break the vessel. 34 Any food that could be eaten shall be unclean if water from any such vessel comes upon it; and any liquid that could be drunk shall be unclean if it was in any such vessel. 35 Everything on which any part of the carcass falls shall be unclean; whether an oven or stove, it shall be broken in pieces; they are unclean, and shall remain unclean for you. 36 But a spring or a cistern holding water shall be clean, while whatever touches the carcass in it shall be unclean. 37 If any part of their carcass falls upon any seed set aside for sowing, it is clean; 38 but if water is put on the seed and any part of their carcass falls on it, it is unclean for you.
39 If an animal of which you may eat dies, anyone who touches its carcass shall be unclean until the evening. 40 Those who eat of its carcass shall wash their clothes and be unclean until the evening; and those who carry the carcass shall wash their clothes and be unclean until the evening.
41 All creatures that swarm upon the earth are detestable; they shall not be eaten. 42 Whatever moves on its belly, and whatever moves on all fours, or whatever has many feet, all the creatures that swarm upon the earth, you shall not eat; for they are detestable. 43 You shall not make yourselves detestable with any creature that swarms; you shall not defile yourselves with them, and so become unclean. 44 For I am the Lord your God; sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am holy. You shall not defile yourselves with any swarming creature that moves on the earth. 45 For I am the Lord who brought you up from the land of Egypt, to be your God; you shall be holy, for I am holy.
46 This is the law pertaining to land animal and bird and every living creature that moves through the waters and every creature that swarms upon the earth, 47 to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean, and between the living creature that may be eaten and the living creature that may not be eaten.

Leviticus 11
King James Version
11 And the Lord spake unto Moses and to Aaron, saying unto them,
2 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, These are the beasts which ye shall eat among all the beasts that are on the earth.
3 Whatsoever parteth the hoof, and is clovenfooted, and cheweth the cud, among the beasts, that shall ye eat.
4 Nevertheless these shall ye not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the hoof: as the camel, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
5 And the coney, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
6 And the hare, because he cheweth the cud, but divideth not the hoof; he is unclean unto you.
7 And the swine, though he divide the hoof, and be clovenfooted, yet he cheweth not the cud; he is unclean to you.
8 Of their flesh shall ye not eat, and their carcase shall ye not touch; they are unclean to you.
9 These shall ye eat of all that are in the waters: whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, them shall ye eat.
10 And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, of all that move in the waters, and of any living thing which is in the waters, they shall be an abomination unto you:
11 They shall be even an abomination unto you; ye shall not eat of their flesh, but ye shall have their carcases in abomination.
12 Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that shall be an abomination unto you.
13 And these are they which ye shall have in abomination among the fowls; they shall not be eaten, they are an abomination: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,
14 And the vulture, and the kite after his kind;
15 Every raven after his kind;
16 And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,
17 And the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl,
18 And the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle,
19 And the stork, the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
20 All fowls that creep, going upon all four, shall be an abomination unto you.
21 Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon all four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth;
22 Even these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind.
23 But all other flying creeping things, which have four feet, shall be an abomination unto you.
24 And for these ye shall be unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcase of them shall be unclean until the even.
25 And whosoever beareth ought of the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.
26 The carcases of every beast which divideth the hoof, and is not clovenfooted, nor cheweth the cud, are unclean unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.
27 And whatsoever goeth upon his paws, among all manner of beasts that go on all four, those are unclean unto you: whoso toucheth their carcase shall be unclean until the even.
28 And he that beareth the carcase of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: they are unclean unto you.
29 These also shall be unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth; the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after his kind,
30 And the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole.
31 These are unclean to you among all that creep: whosoever doth touch them, when they be dead, shall be unclean until the even.
32 And upon whatsoever any of them, when they are dead, doth fall, it shall be unclean; whether it be any vessel of wood, or raiment, or skin, or sack, whatsoever vessel it be, wherein any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the even; so it shall be cleansed.
33 And every earthen vessel, whereinto any of them falleth, whatsoever is in it shall be unclean; and ye shall break it.
34 Of all meat which may be eaten, that on which such water cometh shall be unclean: and all drink that may be drunk in every such vessel shall be unclean.
35 And every thing whereupon any part of their carcase falleth shall be unclean; whether it be oven, or ranges for pots, they shall be broken down: for they are unclean and shall be unclean unto you.
36 Nevertheless a fountain or pit, wherein there is plenty of water, shall be clean: but that which toucheth their carcase shall be unclean.
37 And if any part of their carcase fall upon any sowing seed which is to be sown, it shall be clean.
38 But if any water be put upon the seed, and any part of their carcase fall thereon, it shall be unclean unto you.
39 And if any beast, of which ye may eat, die; he that toucheth the carcase thereof shall be unclean until the even.
40 And he that eateth of the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: he also that beareth the carcase of it shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.
41 And every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth shall be an abomination; it shall not be eaten.
42 Whatsoever goeth upon the belly, and whatsoever goeth upon all four, or whatsoever hath more feet among all creeping things that creep upon the earth, them ye shall not eat; for they are an abomination.
43 Ye shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creepeth, neither shall ye make yourselves unclean with them, that ye should be defiled thereby.
44 For I am the Lord your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
45 For I am the Lord that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
46 This is the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth:
47 To make a difference between the unclean and the clean, and between the beast that may be eaten and the beast that may not be eaten.
