Deuteronomy 14:2

Verse 2 of 29. The 14th of 34 chapters in Deuteronomy, in The Law.

1You are the children of the LORD your God. You shall not cut yourselves, nor make any baldness between your eyes for the dead.

2For you are a holy people to the LORD your God, and the LORD has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth.

3You shall not eat any abominable thing.

4These are the animals which you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat,

5the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex, the antelope, and the chamois.

6Every animal that parts the hoof, and has the hoof split in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat.
