1 El Señor dijo a Moisés y a Aarón:
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying to them,
2 «Digan a los hijos de Israel: Estos son los animales que podrán comer de todos los que viven sobre la tierra.
2 “Speak to the children of Israel, saying, ‘These are the living things which you may eat among all the animals that are on the earth.
3 Podrán comer todo animal que tenga la pezuña completamente dividida y que rumie.
3 Whatever parts the hoof, and is cloven-footed, and chews the cud among the animals, that you may eat.
4 Pero no comerán los siguientes animales, aunque rumien o tengan la pezuña dividida: el camello, porque rumia pero no tiene la pezuña dividida; será impuro para ustedes.
4 “‘Nevertheless these you shall not eat of those that chew the cud, or of those who part the hoof: the camel, because it chews the cud but doesn’t have a parted hoof, is unclean to you.
5 El damán, porque rumia pero no tiene la pezuña dividida; será impuro para ustedes.
5 The hyrax, because it chews the cud but doesn’t have a parted hoof, is unclean to you.
6 La liebre, porque rumia pero no tiene la pezuña dividida; será impura para ustedes.
6 The hare, because it chews the cud but doesn’t have a parted hoof, is unclean to you.
7 El cerdo, porque tiene la pezuña completamente dividida, pero no rumia; será impuro para ustedes.
7 The pig, because it has a split hoof, and is cloven-footed, but doesn’t chew the cud, is unclean to you.
8 No comerán su carne ni tocarán sus cadáveres. Serán impuros para ustedes.
8 You shall not eat their meat. You shall not touch their carcasses. They are unclean to you.
9 »De todos los animales que viven en el agua, podrán comer los que tengan aletas y escamas, ya sea en los mares o en los ríos.
9 “‘You may eat of all these that are in the waters: whatever has fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the rivers, that you may eat.
10 Pero todo animal que viva o se mueva en el agua y no tenga aletas y escamas será repugnante para ustedes, tanto en los mares como en los ríos.
10 All that don’t have fins and scales in the seas and rivers, all that move in the waters, and all the living creatures that are in the waters, they are an abomination to you,
11 Será repugnante para ustedes. No comerán su carne y rechazarán sus cadáveres.
11 and you shall detest them. You shall not eat of their meat, and you shall detest their carcasses.

14 el milano, el halcón y las aves de su especie;
14 the red kite, any kind of black kite,
15 toda clase de cuervos;
15 any kind of raven,
16 el avestruz, el búho, la gaviota, y toda clase de gavilanes;

19 the stork, any kind of heron, the hoopoe, and the bat.
20 »Todo insecto alado que camine sobre cuatro patas será repugnante para ustedes.
20 “‘All flying insects that walk on all fours are an abomination to you.
21 Sin embargo, de los insectos alados que caminan sobre cuatro patas podrán comer los que tengan patas articuladas para saltar sobre la tierra.
21 Yet you may eat these: of all winged creeping things that go on all fours, which have long, jointed legs for hopping on the earth.
22 Podrán comer toda clase de langostas, langostones, grillos y saltamontes.
22 Even of these you may eat: any kind of locust, any kind of katydid, any kind of cricket, and any kind of grasshopper.
23 Pero todo otro insecto alado que tenga cuatro patas será repugnante para ustedes.
23 But all winged creeping things which have four feet are an abomination to you.

26 “‘Every animal which has a split hoof that isn’t completely divided, or doesn’t chew the cud, is unclean to you. Everyone who touches them shall be unclean.
27 Todo animal de cuatro patas que camine sobre sus garras será impuro para ustedes. Cualquiera que toque su cadáver quedará impuro hasta la tarde.
27 Whatever goes on its paws, among all animals that go on all fours, they are unclean to you. Whoever touches their carcass shall be unclean until the evening.

28 He who carries their carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. They are unclean to you.
29 »De los animales que se arrastran sobre la tierra, estos serán impuros para ustedes: la comadreja, el ratón, toda clase de lagartos grandes,
29 “‘These are they which are unclean to you among the creeping things that creep on the earth: the weasel, the rat, any kind of great lizard,
30 el geco, el lagarto de tierra, la lagartija, el lagarto de arena y el camaleón.
30 the gecko, and the monitor lizard, the wall lizard, the skink, and the chameleon.
31 Estos animales serán impuros para ustedes. Cualquiera que toque uno de sus cadáveres quedará impuro hasta la tarde.
31 These are they which are unclean to you among all that creep. Whoever touches them when they are dead shall be unclean until the evening.
32 Si el cadáver de uno de ellos cae sobre algún objeto, ese objeto quedará impuro. Esto se aplica a objetos de madera, ropa, cuero, bolsas o cualquier utensilio. Se pondrá en agua y quedará impuro hasta la tarde; después quedará puro.
32 Anything they fall on when they are dead shall be unclean; whether it is any vessel of wood, or clothing, or skin, or sack, whatever vessel it is, with which any work is done, it must be put into water, and it shall be unclean until the evening. Then it will be clean.
33 Si uno de esos animales cae dentro de una vasija de barro, todo lo que haya dentro quedará impuro, y la vasija deberá romperse.
33 Every earthen vessel into which any of them falls and all that is in it shall be unclean. You shall break it.
34 Todo alimento sobre el que caiga agua de esa vasija quedará impuro, y toda bebida que esté en esa vasija quedará impura.
34 All food which may be eaten which is soaked in water shall be unclean. All drink that may be drunk in every such vessel shall be unclean.
35 Cualquier objeto sobre el que caiga parte de uno de esos cadáveres quedará impuro. Si es un horno o una estufa de barro, deberá romperse. Son impuros y así deberán considerarlos.
35 Everything whereupon part of their carcass falls shall be unclean; whether oven, or range for pots, it shall be broken in pieces. They are unclean, and shall be unclean to you.
36 Sin embargo, un manantial o una cisterna donde se recoge agua seguirá siendo puro. Pero quien toque uno de esos cadáveres quedará impuro.
36 Nevertheless a spring or a cistern in which water is gathered shall be clean, but that which touches their carcass shall be unclean.
37 Si parte de uno de esos cadáveres cae sobre una semilla que todavía no ha sido sembrada, la semilla seguirá siendo pura.
37 If part of their carcass falls on any sowing seed which is to be sown, it is clean.
38 Pero si la semilla ya ha sido mojada con agua y parte del cadáver cae sobre ella, será impura para ustedes.
38 But if water is put on the seed, and part of their carcass falls on it, it is unclean to you.
39 »Si muere un animal que ustedes pueden comer, cualquiera que toque su cadáver quedará impuro hasta la tarde.
39 “‘If any animal of which you may eat dies, he who touches its carcass shall be unclean until the evening.
40 El que coma parte de su cadáver lavará su ropa y quedará impuro hasta la tarde. El que levante el cadáver también lavará su ropa y quedará impuro hasta la tarde.
40 He who eats of its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening. He also who carries its carcass shall wash his clothes, and be unclean until the evening.
41 »Todo animal que se arrastra sobre la tierra será repugnante y no deberá comerse.
41 “‘Every creeping thing that creeps on the earth is an abomination. It shall not be eaten.
42 No comerán ningún animal que se arrastre sobre el vientre, que camine sobre cuatro patas o que tenga muchas patas, porque será repugnante para ustedes.
42 Whatever goes on its belly, and whatever goes on all fours, or whatever has many feet, even all creeping things that creep on the earth, them you shall not eat; for they are an abomination.
43 No se hagan repugnantes comiendo ninguno de estos animales que se arrastran. No se hagan impuros por causa de ellos.
43 You shall not make yourselves abominable with any creeping thing that creeps. You shall not make yourselves unclean with them, that you should be defiled by them.
44 Porque yo soy el Señor su Dios. Santifíquense y sean santos, porque yo soy santo. No se hagan impuros con ninguno de los animales que se arrastran sobre la tierra.
44 For I am Yahweh your God. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am holy. You shall not defile yourselves with any kind of creeping thing that moves on the earth.
45 Yo soy el Señor que los sacó de la tierra de Egipto para ser su Dios. Por eso sean santos, porque yo soy santo.
45 For I am Yahweh who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God. You shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
46 »Esta es la ley acerca de los animales, las aves, todos los seres vivos que se mueven en el agua y todos los animales que se arrastran sobre la tierra.
46 “‘This is the law of the animal, and of the bird, and of every living creature that moves in the waters, and of every creature that creeps on the earth,
47 Así podrán distinguir entre lo impuro y lo puro, y entre los animales que se pueden comer y los que no se pueden comer».
47 to make a distinction between the unclean and the clean, and between the living thing that may be eaten and the living thing that may not be eaten.’”
