Leviticus 11:17-23 Modern English Version (MEV)

17. and the little owl, the cormorant, and the screech owl,

18. and the white owl, the scops owl, and the osprey,

19. and the stork, the heron of any kind, the hoopoe, and the bat.

20. All flying insects that walk, moving on all fours, shall be detestable to you.

21. Yet these you may eat of every flying insect that creeps on all fours: those that have jointed legs above their feet with which to hop on the ground.

22. Even of these you may eat: the locust of any kind, the bald locust of any kind, the cricket of any kind, and the grasshopper of any kind.

23. But all other flying insects that have four feet shall be detestable to you.
