Leviticus 11:43-45

New American Standard Bible 1995

^43 (A)Do not render ^[a]yourselves detestable through any of the swarming things that swarm; and you shall not make yourselves unclean with them so that you become unclean. ⁴⁴ For ^(B)I am the Lord your God. Consecrate yourselves therefore, and ^(C)be holy, for I am holy. And you shall not make yourselves unclean with any of the swarming things that swarm on the earth. ^45 (D)For I am the Lord who brought you up from the land of Egypt to be your God; thus ^(E)you shall be holy, for I am holy.’”
