Animales limpios e impuros(A)
11 El Señor habló con Moisés y Aarón, y les pidió 2 que hablaran con los hijos de Israel y les dijeran:
«De entre todos los animales que hay sobre la tierra, éstos son los que podrán comer:
3 »Todos los que tengan la pezuña hendida y rumien podrán comerlos.
4 »De los que rumian o tienen pezuña no podrán comer los siguientes:
»El camello, porque rumia pero no tiene la pezuña hendida. Deben considerarlo impuro.
5 »El damán, porque rumia pero no tiene pezuña. Deben considerarlo impuro.
6 »La liebre, porque rumia pero no tiene pezuña. Deben considerarla impura.
7 »El cerdo, porque tiene pezuñas, y éstas las tiene hendidas, pero no rumia. Deben considerarlo impuro.
8 »No deberán comer la carne de estos animales, ni tocar su cadáver. Deben considerarlos impuros.
9 »De todos los animales que viven en las aguas podrán comer los siguientes:
»Todos los que tienen aletas y escamas, y viven en las aguas del mar, y en los ríos. 10 Pero no podrán comer ninguno de los que viven en el mar y en los ríos, y no tienen aletas ni escamas, ni ningún otro ser vivo que esté en las aguas. Deben considerarlos impuros 11 y repugnantes. No comerán de su carne, y deberán considerar repugnante su cadáver. 12 Todo animal acuático que no tenga aletas ni escamas, lo considerarán un animal repugnante.
13 »De las aves, considerarán animales repugnantes y no podrán comer los siguientes:
»El águila, el quebrantahuesos, el azor, 14 el gallinazo, toda clase de milanos, 15 toda clase de cuervos, 16 el avestruz, la lechuza, la gaviota, toda clase de gavilanes, 17 el búho, el somormujo, el ibis, 18 el calamón, el pelícano, el buitre, 19 la cigüeña, toda clase de garzas, la abubilla y el murciélago.
20 »También considerarán repugnante a todo insecto alado que ande en cuatro patas. 21 Pero podrán comer de todo insecto alado que ande en cuatro patas, y que además de sus patas tenga piernas para saltar con ellas sobre la tierra.
22 »De estos insectos podrán comer toda clase de langostas, y toda clase de grillos y saltamontes. 23 Pero todo insecto alado que tenga cuatro patas deberán considerarlo repugnante.
24 »Ustedes pueden quedar impuros por lo siguiente: Todo el que toque sus cadáveres quedará impuro hasta el anochecer. 25 Todo el que levante alguno de estos insectos muertos deberá lavar sus vestidos y quedarse impuro hasta el anochecer. 26 Todo animal cuya pezuña no esté hendida, ni rumie, deberán considerarlo impuro. Todo el que los toque se quedará impuro.
27 »De todos los animales que andan en cuatro patas, deberán considerar impuro a todo el que ande sobre sus garras. Todo el que toque sus cadáveres quedará impuro hasta el anochecer. 28 Todo el que levante sus cadáveres deberá lavar sus vestidos y se quedará impuro hasta el anochecer. Deberán considerarlos animales impuros.
29 »De los animales que se arrastran sobre la tierra deberán considerar impuros a los siguientes: la comadreja, el ratón, toda clase de ranas, 30 el erizo, el cocodrilo, el lagarto, la lagartija y el camaleón. 31 De entre los animales que se arrastran, a éstos los deberán considerar impuros. Todo el que los toque cuando éstos ya estén muertos, se quedará impuro hasta el anochecer. 32 Todo aquello sobre lo que caiga algo del cadáver de estos animales, ya sea un objeto de madera, o un vestido, o piel, o saco, o cualquier instrumento de trabajo, deberá enjuagarse y se quedará impuro hasta el anochecer. Después de eso, quedará limpio. 33 Toda vasija de barro en la que caiga alguno de ellos, quedará impura, lo mismo que todo lo que haya dentro de ella, y se tendrá que romper la vasija. 34 Todo alimento sobre el que caiga el agua de tales vasijas, quedará impuro, y toda bebida que haya en ellas será impura. 35 Todo aquello sobre lo que caiga parte del cadáver de estos animales quedará impuro. El horno y los hornillos deberán ser derribados, pues son impuros, y así deberán ser considerados. 36 Sin embargo, las fuentes y las cisternas donde se recoge el agua se considerarán limpias. Sólo se considerará impuro lo que haya tenido contacto con los cadáveres. 37 Si alguna parte de los cadáveres cae sobre alguna semilla que vaya a sembrarse, la semilla se considerará limpia. 38 Pero si la semilla estaba en remojo, y algo de los cadáveres cae sobre ella, deberán considerarla impura.
39 »Si muere algún animal que habías apartado para comer, el que toque su cadáver se quedará impuro hasta el anochecer. 40 El que coma carne del animal muerto, lavará sus vestidos y se quedará impuro hasta el anochecer. El que remueva el cuerpo muerto, lavará sus vestidos y se quedará impuro hasta el anochecer.
41 »De todos los animales que se arrastran sobre la tierra, no comerán ninguno de los reptiles que se arrastran sobre la tierra. Son animales repugnantes, y no se deben comer. 42 Tampoco deben comer nada de lo que anda sobre su pecho, ni nada de lo que anda sobre cuatro o más patas. Son animales repugnantes.
43 »No se hagan ustedes también repugnantes con esos animales que se arrastran. No se contaminen con ellos. No se hagan impuros por causa de ellos.
44 »Yo soy el Señor su Dios. Por lo tanto, ustedes se santificarán, y serán santos, porque yo soy santo.(B) Así que no se contaminen con ninguno de los animales que se arrastran por la tierra.
45 »Yo soy el Señor. Yo los he sacado de Egipto para ser su Dios. Así que ustedes deben ser santos, porque yo soy santo.»
46 Ésta es la ley acerca de las bestias, de las aves, y de todo ser vivo que se mueve en las aguas, y de todo animal que se arrastra por la tierra, 47 para establecer la diferencia entre lo puro y lo impuro, y entre los animales que se pueden comer y los que no se pueden comer.

Mga Hayop na Malinis at Marumi(A)
11 Ang Panginoon ay nagsalita kina Moises at Aaron, na sinasabi,
2 “Sabihin ninyo sa mga anak ni Israel: Ito ang mga bagay na may buhay na maaari ninyong kainin sa lahat ng mga hayop na nasa lupa.
3 Anumang hayop na may hati ang paa, biyak, at ngumunguya—ang mga gayon ay maaari ninyong kainin.
4 Gayunman, huwag ninyong kakainin ang mga ito sa mga ngumunguya o doon sa mga may hati ang paa: ang kamelyo, bagaman ngumunguya, ngunit walang hati ang paa, ito ay marumi para sa inyo,
5 at ang kuneho, bagaman ngumunguya, subalit walang hati ang paa, ito ay marumi para sa inyo,
6 at ang liebre, bagaman ngumunguya, subalit walang hati ang paa, ito ay marumi para sa inyo,
7 at ang baboy, bagaman may hati ang paa at biyak subalit hindi ngumunguya, ito ay marumi para sa inyo.
8 Huwag ninyong kakainin ang kanilang laman at huwag ninyong hihipuin ang kanilang mga bangkay; ang mga iyon ay marumi para sa inyo.
9 “Sa lahat ng mga nasa tubig ay maaari ninyong kainin ang mga ito: alinmang may mga palikpik at mga kaliskis na nasa tubig, nasa dagat, at sa mga nasa ilog, ay makakain ninyo.
10 Subalit alinmang walang mga palikpik at mga kaliskis sa mga nasa dagat, nasa ilog, at sa alinmang mga gumagalaw sa mga nasa tubig, at sa lahat ng may buhay sa tubig, ay marumi para sa inyo.
11 Ang mga iyon ay marumi para sa inyo; huwag ninyong kakainin ang laman ng mga iyan, at ang bangkay ng mga iyan ay inyong pandidirihan.
12 Anumang walang mga palikpik at mga kaliskis na nasa tubig ay magiging maruming bagay sa inyo.
13 “At sa mga ibon ay ituturing ninyong marumi ang mga ito. Ang mga ito ay hindi ninyo dapat kakainin; ang mga ito'y marumi: ang agila, buwitre, at buwitreng itim;
14 ang lawin, limbas, ayon sa kanyang uri;
15 bawat uwak ayon sa kanyang uri;
16 ang avestruz, panggabing lawin, at ang lawing dagat, ayon sa kanyang uri;
17 ang maliit na kuwago, somormuho, at ang malaking kuwago;
18 ang puting kuwago, pelikano, at ang buwitre;
19 ang lahat ng uri ng tagak, ang kabág, at ang paniki.
20 “Lahat ng kulisap na may pakpak na lumalakad sa apat na paa ay marumi para sa inyo.
21 Gayunman, ang mga ito'y maaari ninyong kainin sa lahat ng may pakpak na umuusad na may apat na paa, na may mga hita sa itaas ng mga paa, na ginagamit upang makalundag sa lupa.
22 Mula sa kanila ay makakain ninyo ang mga ito: ang balang ayon sa kanyang uri; ang lukton ayon sa kanyang uri, ang kuliglig ayon sa kanyang uri, at ang tipaklong ayon sa kanyang uri.
23 Subalit ang iba pang kulisap na may pakpak na may apat na paa ay marumi para sa inyo.
24 “At sa pamamagitan ng mga ito ay magiging marumi kayo: sinumang humipo ng kanilang mga bangkay ay magiging marumi hanggang sa paglubog ng araw.
25 Sinumang bumuhat ng kanilang mga bangkay ay maglalaba ng kanyang mga damit, at magiging marumi hanggang sa paglubog ng araw.
26 Bawat hayop na may hati ang kuko, subalit hindi biyak ang paa, o hindi ngumunguya ay marumi para sa inyo: bawat humipo sa mga iyan ay magiging marumi.
27 At anumang lumalakad sa pamamagitan ng kanyang mga kuko sa lahat ng hayop na lumalakad sa pamamagitan ng apat na paa, ay marumi para sa inyo; sinumang humipo ng bangkay ng mga iyan ay magiging marumi hanggang sa paglubog ng araw.
28 At ang bumuhat ng bangkay ng mga iyan ay maglalaba ng kanyang mga damit, at magiging marumi hanggang sa paglubog ng araw; ang mga ito ay marumi para sa inyo.
29 “At ang mga ito'y marumi para sa inyo sa mga umuusad sa ibabaw ng lupa: ang bubuwit, ang daga, at ang bayawak ayon sa kanyang uri,
30 ang tuko, buwaya, butiki, bubuli, at ang hunyango.
31 Ang mga ito'y marumi sa inyo mula sa lahat ng umuusad; sinumang humipo sa mga iyan, kapag ang mga iyan ay patay, ay magiging marumi hanggang sa paglubog ng araw.
32 At anumang malapatan ng mga iyan, kapag ang mga iyan ay patay, ay magiging marumi, maging alinmang kasangkapang yari sa kahoy, o kasuotan, o balat, o sako, alinmang sisidlang ginagamit sa anumang layunin. Dapat itong ilubog sa tubig at magiging marumi hanggang sa paglubog ng araw; pagkatapos, ito ay magiging malinis.
33 Anumang sisidlang yari sa lupa na malapatan ng mga iyan, lahat ng laman niyon ay magiging marumi, at iyon ay inyong babasagin.
34 Sa lahat ng pagkain na maaaring kainin na mabuhusan ng tubig ay magiging marumi; at lahat ng inuming maaaring inumin sa alinman sa mga gayong sisidlan ay magiging marumi.
35 Anumang malapatan ng anumang bahagi ng kanilang bangkay ay magiging marumi; maging hurno o kalan ay babasagin; ang mga ito ay marumi sa inyo.
36 Subalit ang isang bukal o ang isang balon na imbakan ng tubig ay magiging malinis; ngunit ang masagi ng bangkay ng mga iyon ay magiging marumi.
37 At kapag malapatan ng kanilang bangkay ang alinmang binhing panghasik na ihahasik, ito ay malinis;
38 Ngunit kung nabasa ang binhi at malapatan ng bangkay ng mga iyon, ito ay magiging marumi para sa inyo.
39 “Kapag ang alinmang hayop na inyong makakain ay namatay, ang humipo ng bangkay nito ay magiging marumi hanggang sa paglubog ng araw,
40 at ang kumain ng bangkay nito ay maglalaba ng kanyang damit, at magiging marumi hanggang sa paglubog ng araw; at ang bumuhat ng bangkay nito ay maglalaba ng kanyang damit, at magiging marumi hanggang sa paglubog ng araw.
41 “Bawat umuusad sa ibabaw ng lupa ay marumi; hindi ito maaaring kainin.
42 Anumang lumalakad sa pamamagitan ng kanyang tiyan, at lahat ng lumalakad sa pamamagitan ng apat na paa, at anumang mayroong maraming paa, maging sa lahat ng bagay na umuusad sa ibabaw ng lupa, ay huwag ninyong kakainin; sapagkat ang mga ito ay marumi.
43 Huwag ninyong gawing karumaldumal ang inyong sarili sa pamamagitan ng anumang umuusad ni gawin ninyong marumi ang inyong sarili sa pamamagitan ng mga iyan, upang huwag kayong marumihan nila.
44 Sapagkat(B) ako ang Panginoon ninyong Diyos, kaya't pakabanalin ninyo ang inyong mga sarili, at kayo'y maging banal, sapagkat ako ay banal. Huwag ninyong durungisan ang inyong mga sarili sa pamamagitan ng anumang umuusad sa ibabaw ng lupa.
45 Sapagkat ako ang Panginoon na naglabas sa inyo mula sa lupain ng Ehipto, upang maging inyong Diyos; kayo nga'y magpakabanal, sapagkat ako'y banal.”
46 Ito ang batas tungkol sa hayop, sa ibon, at sa lahat na may buhay na gumagalaw na nasa tubig, at sa lahat ng nilikha na umuusad sa ibabaw ng lupa,
47 upang bigyan ng pagkakaiba ang marumi at ang malinis, at ang may buhay na maaaring kainin at ang may buhay na hindi maaaring kainin.

King James Version
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.

Clean and Unclean Food(A)
11 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, 2 “Say to the Israelites: ‘Of all the animals that live on land, these are the ones you may eat:(B) 3 You may eat any animal that has a divided hoof and that chews the cud.
4 “‘There are some that only chew the cud or only have a divided hoof, but you must not eat them.(C) The camel, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is ceremonially unclean for you. 5 The hyrax, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you. 6 The rabbit, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you. 7 And the pig,(D) though it has a divided hoof, does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you. 8 You must not eat their meat or touch their carcasses; they are unclean for you.(E)
9 “‘Of all the creatures living in the water of the seas and the streams you may eat any that have fins and scales. 10 But all creatures in the seas or streams that do not have fins and scales—whether among all the swarming things or among all the other living creatures in the water—you are to regard as unclean.(F) 11 And since you are to regard them as unclean, you must not eat their meat; you must regard their carcasses as unclean.(G) 12 Anything living in the water that does not have fins and scales is to be regarded as unclean by you.(H)
13 “‘These are the birds you are to regard as unclean and not eat because they are unclean: the eagle,[a] the vulture, the black vulture, 14 the red kite, any kind(I) of black kite, 15 any kind of raven,(J) 16 the horned owl, the screech owl, the gull, any kind of hawk, 17 the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl, 18 the white owl,(K) the desert owl, the osprey, 19 the stork,(L) any kind(M) of heron, the hoopoe and the bat.(N)
20 “‘All flying insects that walk on all fours are to be regarded as unclean by you.(O) 21 There are, however, some flying insects that walk on all fours that you may eat: those that have jointed legs for hopping on the ground. 22 Of these you may eat any kind of locust,(P) katydid, cricket or grasshopper. 23 But all other flying insects that have four legs you are to regard as unclean.
24 “‘You will make yourselves unclean by these;(Q) whoever touches their carcasses will be unclean till evening.(R) 25 Whoever picks up one of their carcasses must wash their clothes,(S) and they will be unclean till evening.(T)
26 “‘Every animal that does not have a divided hoof or that does not chew the cud is unclean for you; whoever touches the carcass of any of them will be unclean. 27 Of all the animals that walk on all fours, those that walk on their paws are unclean for you; whoever touches their carcasses will be unclean till evening. 28 Anyone who picks up their carcasses must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening.(U) These animals are unclean for you.
29 “‘Of the animals that move along the ground, these are unclean for you:(V) the weasel, the rat,(W) any kind of great lizard, 30 the gecko, the monitor lizard, the wall lizard, the skink and the chameleon. 31 Of all those that move along the ground, these are unclean for you. Whoever touches them when they are dead will be unclean till evening. 32 When one of them dies and falls on something, that article, whatever its use, will be unclean, whether it is made of wood, cloth, hide or sackcloth.(X) Put it in water; it will be unclean till evening, and then it will be clean. 33 If one of them falls into a clay pot, everything in it will be unclean, and you must break the pot.(Y) 34 Any food you are allowed to eat that has come into contact with water from any such pot is unclean, and any liquid that is drunk from such a pot is unclean. 35 Anything that one of their carcasses falls on becomes unclean; an oven or cooking pot must be broken up. They are unclean, and you are to regard them as unclean. 36 A spring, however, or a cistern for collecting water remains clean, but anyone who touches one of these carcasses is unclean. 37 If a carcass falls on any seeds that are to be planted, they remain clean. 38 But if water has been put on the seed and a carcass falls on it, it is unclean for you.
39 “‘If an animal that you are allowed to eat dies,(Z) anyone who touches its carcass(AA) will be unclean till evening. 40 Anyone who eats some of its carcass(AB) must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening.(AC) Anyone who picks up the carcass must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening.
41 “‘Every creature that moves along the ground is to be regarded as unclean; it is not to be eaten. 42 You are not to eat any creature that moves along the ground, whether it moves on its belly or walks on all fours or on many feet; it is unclean. 43 Do not defile yourselves by any of these creatures.(AD) Do not make yourselves unclean by means of them or be made unclean by them. 44 I am the Lord your God;(AE) consecrate yourselves(AF) and be holy,(AG) because I am holy.(AH) Do not make yourselves unclean by any creature that moves along the ground.(AI) 45 I am the Lord, who brought you up out of Egypt(AJ) to be your God;(AK) therefore be holy, because I am holy.(AL)
46 “‘These are the regulations concerning animals, birds, every living thing that moves about in the water and every creature that moves along the ground. 47 You must distinguish between the unclean and the clean, between living creatures that may be eaten and those that may not be eaten.(AM)’”
