Clean and Unclean Land Animals

11 The Lord spoke to Moses and Aaron: ²“Tell the Israelites: You may eat^(A) all these kinds of land animals.^(B) ³You may eat any animal with divided hooves and that chews the cud. ⁴But among the ones that chew the cud or have divided hooves you are not to eat these:

the camel,^(C) though it chews the cud,
does not have divided hooves—it is unclean for you;
⁵the hyrax,^[a]^(D) though it chews the cud,
does not have hooves—it is unclean for you;
⁶the hare, though it chews the cud,
does not have hooves—it is unclean for you;
