Chapter 14

1You are children of Hashem your God. You shall not gash yourselves or shave the front of your heads because of the dead.

2For you are a people consecrated to Hashem your God: Hashem your God chose you from among all other peoples on earth to be His treasured people.

3You shall not eat anything abhorrent.

4These are the animals that you may eat: the ox, the sheep, and the goat;

6and any other animal that has true hoofs which are cleft in two and brings up the cud—such you may eat.

7But the following, which do bring up the cud or have true hoofs which are cleft through, you may not eat: the camel, the hare, and the daman—for although they bring up the cud, they have no true hoofs—they are unclean for you;

8also the swine—for although it has true hoofs, it does not bring up the cud—is unclean for you. You shall not eat of their flesh or touch their carcasses.

20You may eat only clean winged creatures.

21You shall not eat anything that has died a natural death; give it to the stranger in your community to eat, or you may sell it to a foreigner. For you are a people consecrated to Hashem your God. You shall not boil a kid in its mother's milk.

26and spend the money on anything you want—cattle, sheep, wine, or other intoxicant, or anything you may desire. And you shall feast there, in the presence of Hashem your God, and rejoice with your household.
