²⁰ And Noah builded an altar unto the Lord; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

²¹ Moreover the soul that shall touch any unclean thing, as the uncleanness of man, or any unclean beast, or any abominable unclean thing, and eat of the flesh of the sacrifice of peace offerings, which pertain unto the Lord, even that soul shall be cut off from his people.

²⁵ Ye shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean fowls and clean: and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creepeth on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.

³ Thou shalt not eat any abominable thing.

⁴ These are the beasts which ye shall eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat,

⁵ The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow deer, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the wild ox, and the chamois.

⁶ And every beast that parteth the hoof, and cleaveth the cleft into two claws, and cheweth the cud among the beasts, that ye shall eat.

¹⁰ And whatsoever hath not fins and scales ye may not eat; it is unclean unto you.

¹¹ Of all clean birds ye shall eat.

¹² But these are they of which ye shall not eat: the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray,

¹³ And the glede, and the kite, and the vulture after his kind,

¹⁴ And every raven after his kind,

¹⁵ And the owl, and the night hawk, and the cuckow, and the hawk after his kind,

¹⁶ The little owl, and the great owl, and the swan,

¹⁷ And the pelican, and the gier eagle, and the cormorant,

¹⁸ And the stork, and the heron after her kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.

¹⁹ And every creeping thing that flieth is unclean unto you: they shall not be eaten.

²⁰ But of all clean fowls ye may eat.

¹¹ And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending upon him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:
