New Testament

Leviticus 11:1-7 New International Version (NIV)

1. 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:

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. 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, though it has a divided hoof, does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you.
