Leviticus 20:23-25
New King James Version
23 (A)And you shall not walk in the statutes of the nation which I am casting out before you; for they commit all these things, and (B)therefore I abhor them. 24 But (C)I have said to you, “You shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess, a land flowing with milk and honey.” I am the Lord your God, (D)who has separated you from the peoples. 25 (E)You shall therefore distinguish between clean animals and unclean, between unclean birds and clean, (F)and you shall not make yourselves [a]abominable by beast or by bird, or by any kind of living thing that creeps on the ground, which I have separated from you as [b]unclean.
