2 for you are a holy people belonging to the Lord your God. The Lord has chosen you to be His own possession out of all the peoples on the face of the earth.
3 “You must not eat any detestable thing.
4 These are the animals you may eat:the ox, the sheep, the goat,
5 the deer, the gazelle, the roe deer,the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope,and the mountain sheep.
6 You may eat any animal that has hooves divided in two and chews the cud.
7 But among the ones that chew the cud or have divided hooves, you are not to eat these:the camel, the hare, and the hyrax,though they chew the cud, they do not have hooves —they are unclean for you;
8 and the pig, though it has hooves, it does not chew the cud —it is unclean for you.You must not eat their meat or touch their carcasses.
