Leviticus 11

21  Yet these may ye eat of all winged creeping things that go upon all fours, which have legs above their feet, wherewith to leap upon the earth.

22  Even these of them ye may eat: the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the cricket after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind.

23  But all winged creeping things, which have four feet, are an abomination unto you.

24  And by these ye shall become unclean: whosoever toucheth the carcass of them shall be unclean until the even;

25  And whosoever beareth `aught' of the carcass of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even.

26  Every beast which parteth the hoof, and is not clovenfooted, nor cheweth the cud, is unclean unto you: every one that toucheth them shall be unclean.

27  And whatsoever goeth upon its paws, among all beasts that go on all fours, they are unclean unto you: whoso toucheth their carcass shall be unclean until the even.

28  And he that beareth the carcass of them shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the even: they are unclean unto you.

29  And these are they which are unclean unto you among the creeping things that creep upon the earth: the weasel, and the mouse, and the great lizard after its kind,

30  And the gecko, and the land-crocodile, and the lizard, and the sand-lizard, and the chameleon.
