Leviticus 20:23-25

Holman Christian Standard Bible

²³ You must not follow the statutes of the nations I am driving out before you, for they did all these things, and I abhorred them.^{(A) 24} And I promised you: You will inherit their land, since I will give it to you to possess, a land flowing with milk and honey.^(B) I am Yahweh your God who set you apart from the peoples. ²⁵ Therefore you must distinguish the clean animal from the unclean one, and the unclean bird from the clean one. Do not become contaminated^(C) by any land animal, bird, or whatever crawls on the ground; I have set these apart as unclean for you.^(D)
