Leviticus 20:23-25

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²³ Walk not after the laws of the nations, which I will cast out before you. For they have done all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.

²⁴ But to you I say: Possess their land which I will give you for an inheritance, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am the Lord your God, who have separated you from other people.

²⁵ Therefore do you also separate the clean beast from the unclean, and the clean fowl from the unclean: defile not your souls with beasts, or birds, or any things that move on the earth, and which I have shewn you to be unclean.
