Ye are the children of the LORD your God: ye shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.

²כִּ֣י עַ֤ם קָדוֹשׁ֙ אַתָּ֔ה לַיהוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֶ֑יךָ וּבְךָ֞ בָּחַ֣ר יְהוָ֗ה לִֽהְי֥וֹת לוֹ֙ לְעַ֣ם סְגֻלָּ֔ה מִכֹּל֙ הָֽעַמִּ֔ים אֲשֶׁ֖ר עַל־פְּנֵ֥י הָאֲדָמָֽה׃

World Messianic Bible (English numbering)

¹You are the children of the LORD your God. You shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.

²For you are a holy people to the LORD your God, and the LORD has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.

³You shall not eat any abominable thing.

⁴These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,

⁵the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the chamois.

⁶Every animal that parts the hoof, and has the hoof split in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat.

⁷Nevertheless these you shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of those who have the hoof split: the camel, the hare, and the rabbit. Because they chew the cud but don’t part the hoof, they are unclean to you.

⁸The pig, because it has a split hoof but doesn’t chew the cud, is unclean to you. You shall not eat their meat. You shall not touch their carcasses.

⁹These you may eat of all that are in the waters: you may eat whatever has fins and scales.

¹⁰You shall not eat whatever doesn’t have fins and scales. It is unclean to you.

¹¹Of all clean birds you may eat.

¹²But these are they of which you shall not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the osprey,

¹³the red kite, the falcon, the kite of any kind,

¹⁴every raven of any kind,

¹⁵the ostrich, the owl, the seagull, the hawk of any kind,

¹⁶the little owl, the great owl, the horned owl,

¹⁷the pelican, the vulture, the cormorant,

¹⁸the stork, the heron after its kind, the hoopoe, and the bat.

¹⁹All winged creeping things are unclean to you. They shall not be eaten.

²⁰Of all clean birds you may eat.

²¹You shall not eat of anything that dies of itself. You may give it to the foreigner living among you who is within your gates, that he may eat it; or you may sell it to a foreigner; for you are a holy people to the LORD your God. You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.

²²You shall surely tithe all the increase of your seed, that which comes out of the field year by year.

²³You shall eat before the LORD your God, in the place which he chooses to cause his name to dwell, the tithe of your grain, of your new wine, and of your oil, and the firstborn of your herd and of your flock; that you may learn to fear the LORD your God always.

²⁴If the way is too long for you, so that you are not able to carry it because the place which the LORD your God shall choose to set his name there is too far from you, when the LORD your God blesses you,

²⁵then you shall turn it into money, bind up the money in your hand, and shall go to the place which the LORD your God shall choose.

²⁶You shall trade the money for whatever your soul desires: for cattle, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatever your soul asks of you. You shall eat there before the LORD your God, and you shall rejoice, you and your household.

²⁷You shall not forsake the Levite who is within your gates, for he has no portion nor inheritance with you.

²⁸At the end of every three years you shall bring all the tithe of your increase in the same year, and shall store it within your gates.

²⁹The Levite, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you, as well as the foreigner living among you, the fatherless, and the widow who are within your gates shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the LORD your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.
