- Kapitel 14 -

(Leviticus 11:1–47; Acts 10:9–16)
1
Be ye children of the Lord your God: you shall not cut yourselves, no, make any baldness for the dead;
2
Because thou art a holy people to the Lord thy God: and he chose thee to be his peculiar people of all nations that are upon the earth.
3
Eat not the things that are unclean.
4
These are the beasts that you shall eat, the ox, and the sheep, and the goat,
5
The hart and the roe, the buffle, the chamois, the pygarg, the wild goat, the camelopardalus.
6
Every beast that divideth the hoof in two parts, and cheweth the cud, you shall eat.
7
But of them that chew the cud, but divide not the hoof, you shall not eat, such as the camel, the hare, and the cherogril: because they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof, they shall be unclean to you.
8
The swine also, because it divideth the hoof, but cheweth not the cud, shall be unclean, their flesh you shall not eat, and their carcasses you shall not touch.
9
These shall you eat of all that abide in the waters: All that have fins and scales, you shall eat.
10
Such as are without fins and scales, you shall not eat, because they are unclean.
11
All birds that are clean you shall eat.
12
The unclean eat not: to wit, the eagle, and the grype, and the osprey,
13
The ringtail, and the vulture, and the kite according to their kind:
14
And all of the raven’s kind:
15
And the ostrich, and the owl, and the larus, and the hawk according to its kind:
16
The heron, and the swan, and the stork,
17
And the cormorant, the porphyrion, and the night crow,
18
The bittern, and the charadrion, every one in their kind: the hoop also and the bat.
19
Every thing that creepeth, and hath little wings, shall be unclean, and shall not be eaten.
20
All that is clean, you shall eat.
21
But whatsoever is dead of itself, eat not thereof. Give it to the stranger, that is within thy gates, to eat, or sell it to him: because thou art the holy people of the Lord thy God. Thou shalt not boil a kid in the milk of his dam.

Giving Tithes

(Leviticus 27:30–34; Deuteronomy 26:1–15; Nehemiah 13:10–14)
22
Every year thou shalt set aside the tithes of all thy fruits that the earth bringeth forth,
23
And thou shalt eat before the Lord thy God in the place which he shall choose, that his name may be called upon therein, the tithe of thy corn, and thy wine, and thy oil, and the firstborn of thy herds and thy sheep: that thou mayst learn to fear the Lord thy God at all times.
24
But when the way and the place which the Lord thy God shall choose, are far off, and he hath blessed thee, and thou canst not carry all these things thither,
25
Thou shalt sell them all, and turn them into money, and shalt carry it in thy hand, and shalt go to the place which the Lord shall choose:
26
And thou shalt buy with the same money whatsoever pleaseth thee, either of the herds or of sheep, wine also and strong drink, and all that thy soul desireth: and thou shalt eat before the Lord thy God, and shalt feast, thou and thy house:
27
And the Levite that is within thy gates, beware thou forsake him not, because he hath no other part in thy possession.
28
The third year thou shalt separate another tithe of all things that grow to thee at that time, and shalt lay it up within thy gates.
29
And the Levite that hath no other part nor possession with thee, and the stranger and the fatherless and the widow, that are within thy gates, shall come and shall eat and be filled: that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all the works of thy hands that thou shalt do.
(Leviticus 11:1–47; Acts 10:9–16)
1
You are the children of the LORD your God. You shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.
2
For 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.
3
You shall not eat any abominable thing.
4
These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,
5
the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the chamois.
6
Every animal that parts the hoof, and has the hoof split in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat.
7
Nevertheless 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.
8
The 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.
9
These you may eat of all that are in the waters: you may eat whatever has fins and scales.
10
You shall not eat whatever doesn’t have fins and scales. It is unclean to you.
11
Of all clean birds you may eat.
12
But these are they of which you shall not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the osprey,
13
the red kite, the falcon, the kite of any kind,
14
every raven of any kind,
15
the ostrich, the owl, the seagull, the hawk of any kind,
16
the little owl, the great owl, the horned owl,
17
the pelican, the vulture, the cormorant,
18
the stork, the heron after its kind, the hoopoe, and the bat.
19
All winged creeping things are unclean to you. They shall not be eaten.
20
Of all clean birds you may eat.
21
You 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.

Giving Tithes

(Leviticus 27:30–34; Deuteronomy 26:1–15; Nehemiah 13:10–14)
22
You shall surely tithe all the increase of your seed, that which comes out of the field year by year.
23
You 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.
24
If 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,
25
then 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.
26
You 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.
27
You shall not forsake the Levite who is within your gates, for he has no portion nor inheritance with you.
28
At 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.
29
The 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.
