11  A i korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi raua ko Arona, i mea ki a raua,

Korero ki nga tama a Iharaira, mea atu, Ko nga kirehe enei e kainga e koutou o nga kararehe katoa i runga i te whenua.

Ko nga mea katoa i roto i nga kararehe e tararua ana te matimati, e tino mawehe ana hoki te titorehanga, e whakahoki ake ana hoki i te kai, ko tena ta koutou e kai ai.

Otiia kaua e kainga enei o nga mea e whakahoki ake ana i te kai, o nga mea hoki e tararua ana te matimati: ko te kamera, no te mea e whakahoki ake ana ano ia i te kai, otiia kahore i tararua te matimati; hei mea poke tena ki a koutou.

Me te koni, no te mea e whakahoki ake ana ano ia i te kai, otiia kahore i tararua te matimati; hei mea poke ia ki a koutou.

Me te hea, no te mea e whakahoki ake ana ano ia i te kai, otiia kahore i tararua te matimati; hei mea poke ia ki a koutou.

Me te poaka, ahakoa e tararua ana te matimati, e tino mawehe ana hoki te titorehang, kahore e whakahokia ake te kai; hei mea poke ia ki a koutou.

Kaua e kainga tetahi wahi o o ratou kikokiko, kaua ano e pa ki o ratou tinana mate; hei poke ena ki a koutou.

Ko enei a koutou e kai ai o nga mea katoa o roto o nga wai: ko nga mea katoa o nga wai, o nga moana, o nga awa, he tara o ratou, he unahi, ko ena a koutou e kai ai.

10 A, ko nga mea katoa kahore he tara, kahore he unahi, o nga moana, o nga awa, o roto o nga mea katoa e tere ana i nga wai, o nga mea ora katoa o nga wai; hei mea whakarihariha ena ki a koutou:

11 Ina, hei mea whakarihariha ano ena ki a koutou: kei kainga tetahi wahi o o ratou kikokiko e koutou, a me whakarihariha atu ki o ratou tinana mate.

12 Ko nga mea katoa o nga wai kahore he tara, kahore he unahi, hei mea whakarihariha ena ki a koutou.

13 Ko enei ano o nga manu a koutou e whakarihariha ai; e kore e kainga, he whakarihariha hoki: ko te ekara, ko te wawahi iwi, ko te ahipare,

14 Ko te whatura, ko te kaiaia, me nga mea pera;

15 Ko nga raweni katoa, me nga mea pera:

16 Me te otereti, me te kahu po, me te koekoea, me te kahu, me nga mea pera,

17 Me te ruru nohinohi, me te kawau, me te ruru nui,

18 Me te wani, me te perikana, me te kia ekara,

19 Me te taaka, me te heroni, me nga mea pera, me te hupou, me te pekapeka.

20 Ko nga mea ngokingoki katoa e rere a manu ana, e wha nga waewae hei haere, me whakarihariha atu e koutou.

21 Otiia me kai ano enei e koutou o nga mea ngokingoki katoa e rere a manu ana, e wha nei nga waewae hei haere, a he waewae ano o ratou kei runga ake i nga raparapa, hei mokowhiti i runga i te whenua;

22 Ko enei o ratou e kainga e koutou; ko te mawhitiwhiti, me nga mea e rite ana ki a ia, me te tatarakihi, me nga mea e rite ana ki a ia, me te pakauroharoha, me nga mea e rite ana ki a ia, me te koeke, me nga mea e rite ana ki a ia.

23 Ko nga mea ngokingoki ke atu ia, ko nga mea rere a manu, e wha nei o ratou waewae, me whakarihariha atu e koutou.

24 He mea hoki enei e poke ai koutou: ki te pa tetahi ki o ratou tinana mate, ka poke a ahiahi noa.

25 A ki te mauria e te tangata tetahi wahi o o ratou tinana mate, me horoi e ia ona kakahu, ka poke hoki ia a ahiahi noa.

26 Ko nga kararehe katoa e tararua ana te matimati, a kahore ano i tino mawehe te titorehanga, kahore ranei e whakahoki ake i te kai, hei mea poke ki a koutou: ka poke nga tangata katoa e pa ana ki a ratou.

27 Na ko nga mea katoa he tu a ringaringa nei nga waewae e haere ai ratou, o roto o nga kirehe katoa e wha nei nga waewae hei haere, hei mea poke ena ki a koutou: ki te pa tetahi ki o ratou tinana mate, ka poke ia a ahiahi noa.

28 A ki te mauria e tetahi te tinana mate o tetahi o ratou, me horoi e ia ona kakahu, ka poke hoki ia a ahiahi noa: kia poke ena ki a koutou.

29 Ka poke ano hoki enei ki a koutou o nga mea ngokingoki katoa e ngokingoki ana i runga i te whenua; ko te wihara, ko te kiore, me te tuatara, me nga mea e rite ana ki a ia,

30 Me te koka, me te korokotaera, me te mokomoko, me te moeone, me te kamiriona.

31 Kia poke enei ki a koutou o nga mea ngokingoki katoa: ki te pa atu tetahi ki a ratou, ina mate, ka poke ia a ahiahi noa.

32 A ki te taka tetahi o ratou, ina mate, ki runga ki tetahi mea, ka poke taua mea; ahakoa he oko rakau, he mea kakahu, hiako ranei, peke ranei; ahakoa he oko aha ranei, aha ranei, e meatia ai tetahi mea, me maka ki te wai, a ka poke a ahiahi noa; katahi ka kore te poke.

33 A ki te taka tetahi o ratou ki roto ki tetahi oko oneone, ahakoa he aha ranei, he aha ranei, kei roto, kua poke; a me wahi.

34 Ki te maringi taua wai ki runga ki tetahi o nga kai e kainga ana, ka poke: ka poke ano hoki nga wai katoa e inumia ana i roto i aua oko katoa.

35 Ka poke ano hoki nga mea katoa kua taka nei tetahi wahi o o ratou tinana mate ki runga: ahakoa oumu, turanga kohua ranei, me wahi kia ngotangota: he mea poke hoki, a ka poke ano ki a koutou.

36 Otiia ki te mea he puna, he poka ranei, he nui nei te wai, kahore ona poke: ki te pa ia tetahi ki o ratou tinana mate, ka poke.

37 Ki te taka ano hoki tetahi wahi o o ratou tinana mate ki nga purapura e whakatokia ana, e kore e poke.

38 Otiia ki te mea kua oti te purapura te mea ki te wai, a ka taka tetahi wahi o o ratou tinana mate ki runga, ka poke ena ki a koutou.

39 A ki te mate maori tetahi o nga kararehe e kainga ana e koutou; ki te pa tetahi ki tona tinana mate, ka poke ia a ahiahi noa.

40 A ki te kai tetahi i tetahi wahi o tona tinana, me horoi e ia ona kakahu, ka poke hoki ia a ahiahi noa; ki te mauria hoki e tetahi tona tinana, me horoi e ia ona kakahu, ka poke hoki ia a ahiahi noa.

41 Hei mea whakarihariha nga mea ngokingoki katoa e ngokingoki ana i runga i te whenua; e kore e kainga.

42 Ko nga mea katoa ko te kopu hei haere, me nga mea katoa ko taua tu haere o nga wae e wha, ara ko nga mea katoa he maha nga waewae, i roto i nga mea ngoki katoa e ngoki nei i runga i te whenua, kaua ena e kainga; he mea whakarihariha hoki.

43 Kei waiho tetahi mea ngokingoki, hei take e whakariharihangia ai koutou, hei mea ranei e poke ai, e noa ai.

44 No te mea hoki ko Ihowa ahau, ko to koutou Atua; mo reira me whakatapu koutou e koutou, a ka tapu; he tapu hoki ahau: kaua ano hoki e whakapokea koutou ki tetahi mea ngokingoki e ngokingoki ana i runga i te whenua.

45 Ko Ihowa hoki ahau, i kawe mai nei i a koutou i te whenua o Ihipa, kia waiho ai ahau hei Atua mo koutou: mo reira kia tapu koutou, he tapu hoki ahau.

46 Ko te ture tenei mo te kararehe, mo te manu, mo nga mea ora katoa e tere ana i nga wai, mo nga mea katoa hoki e ngoki ana i runga i te whenua:

47 Kia wehea ai te poke me te pokekore, te kararehe e kainga me te kararehe e kore e kainga.

Clean and Unclean Food(A)

11 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “Say to the Israelites: ‘Of all the animals that live on land, these are the ones you may eat:(B) You may eat any animal that has a divided hoof and that chews the cud.

“‘There are some that only chew the cud or only have a divided hoof, but you must not eat them.(C) The camel, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is ceremonially unclean for you. The hyrax, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you. The rabbit, though it chews the cud, does not have a divided hoof; it is unclean for you. And the pig,(D) though it has a divided hoof, does not chew the cud; it is unclean for you. You must not eat their meat or touch their carcasses; they are unclean for you.(E)

“‘Of all the creatures living in the water of the seas and the streams you may eat any that have fins and scales. 10 But all creatures in the seas or streams that do not have fins and scales—whether among all the swarming things or among all the other living creatures in the water—you are to regard as unclean.(F) 11 And since you are to regard them as unclean, you must not eat their meat; you must regard their carcasses as unclean.(G) 12 Anything living in the water that does not have fins and scales is to be regarded as unclean by you.(H)

13 “‘These are the birds you are to regard as unclean and not eat because they are unclean: the eagle,[a] the vulture, the black vulture, 14 the red kite, any kind(I) of black kite, 15 any kind of raven,(J) 16 the horned owl, the screech owl, the gull, any kind of hawk, 17 the little owl, the cormorant, the great owl, 18 the white owl,(K) the desert owl, the osprey, 19 the stork,(L) any kind(M) of heron, the hoopoe and the bat.(N)

20 “‘All flying insects that walk on all fours are to be regarded as unclean by you.(O) 21 There are, however, some flying insects that walk on all fours that you may eat: those that have jointed legs for hopping on the ground. 22 Of these you may eat any kind of locust,(P) katydid, cricket or grasshopper. 23 But all other flying insects that have four legs you are to regard as unclean.

24 “‘You will make yourselves unclean by these;(Q) whoever touches their carcasses will be unclean till evening.(R) 25 Whoever picks up one of their carcasses must wash their clothes,(S) and they will be unclean till evening.(T)

26 “‘Every animal that does not have a divided hoof or that does not chew the cud is unclean for you; whoever touches the carcass of any of them will be unclean. 27 Of all the animals that walk on all fours, those that walk on their paws are unclean for you; whoever touches their carcasses will be unclean till evening. 28 Anyone who picks up their carcasses must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening.(U) These animals are unclean for you.

29 “‘Of the animals that move along the ground, these are unclean for you:(V) the weasel, the rat,(W) any kind of great lizard, 30 the gecko, the monitor lizard, the wall lizard, the skink and the chameleon. 31 Of all those that move along the ground, these are unclean for you. Whoever touches them when they are dead will be unclean till evening. 32 When one of them dies and falls on something, that article, whatever its use, will be unclean, whether it is made of wood, cloth, hide or sackcloth.(X) Put it in water; it will be unclean till evening, and then it will be clean. 33 If one of them falls into a clay pot, everything in it will be unclean, and you must break the pot.(Y) 34 Any food you are allowed to eat that has come into contact with water from any such pot is unclean, and any liquid that is drunk from such a pot is unclean. 35 Anything that one of their carcasses falls on becomes unclean; an oven or cooking pot must be broken up. They are unclean, and you are to regard them as unclean. 36 A spring, however, or a cistern for collecting water remains clean, but anyone who touches one of these carcasses is unclean. 37 If a carcass falls on any seeds that are to be planted, they remain clean. 38 But if water has been put on the seed and a carcass falls on it, it is unclean for you.

39 “‘If an animal that you are allowed to eat dies,(Z) anyone who touches its carcass(AA) will be unclean till evening. 40 Anyone who eats some of its carcass(AB) must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening.(AC) Anyone who picks up the carcass must wash their clothes, and they will be unclean till evening.

41 “‘Every creature that moves along the ground is to be regarded as unclean; it is not to be eaten. 42 You are not to eat any creature that moves along the ground, whether it moves on its belly or walks on all fours or on many feet; it is unclean. 43 Do not defile yourselves by any of these creatures.(AD) Do not make yourselves unclean by means of them or be made unclean by them. 44 I am the Lord your God;(AE) consecrate yourselves(AF) and be holy,(AG) because I am holy.(AH) Do not make yourselves unclean by any creature that moves along the ground.(AI) 45 I am the Lord, who brought you up out of Egypt(AJ) to be your God;(AK) therefore be holy, because I am holy.(AL)

46 “‘These are the regulations concerning animals, birds, every living thing that moves about in the water and every creature that moves along the ground. 47 You must distinguish between the unclean and the clean, between living creatures that may be eaten and those that may not be eaten.(AM)’”
