And it shall be an heap for ever and shall not be
built again. And see that there cleave nought of the damned thing
in thine hand, that the LORD may turn from his fierce wrath and
shew thee mercy and have compassion on thee and multiply thee, as
he hath sworn unto thy fathers: when thou hast hearkened unto the
voice of the LORD thy God, to keep all his commandments which I
command thee this day so that thou do that which is right in the
eyes of the LORD thy God.
Chapter .xiiij.
Ye are the children of the LORD your God, cut not your selves nor
make you any baldness between the eyes for any man's death. For
thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God, and the LORD hath
chosen thee to be a several people unto himself, of all the
nations that are upon the earth. Ye shall eat no manner of
abomination. These are the beasts which ye shall eat of: oxen,
sheep and goats, hart, roe and bugle, hart {wild} goat, unicorn,
origen and Camelion. And all beasts that cleave the hoof, and slit
it into two claws and chew the cud, them ye shall eat.
Nevertheless, these ye shall not eat of them that chew cud and of
them that divide and cleave the hoof: the camel, the hare and the
coney. For they chew cud, but divide not the hoof: and therefore
are unclean unto you: and also the swine, for though he divide the
hoof, yet he cheweth not cud, and therefore is unclean unto you:
Ye shall not eat of the flesh of them nor touch the dead carcasses
of them.
