New Testament

Leviticus 11:43-47 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

43. Do not be willing to contaminate your souls, nor shall you touch any of these, lest you become unclean.

44. For I am the Lord your God. Be holy, for I am Holy. Do not pollute your souls with any creeping thing, which moves across the land.

45. For I am the Lord, who led you away from the land of Egypt, so that I would be your God; you shall be holy, for I am Holy.

46. This is the law of animals and flying things, and of every living soul that moves in the waters or creeps upon the land,

47. so that you may know the difference between clean and unclean, and so that you may know what you ought to eat, and what you ought to refuse.
