Maling Kaugalian ng Pagluluksa

14 “Kayo(A) ang mga anak ng Diyos ninyong si Yahweh. Kung ang isang mahal sa buhay ay mamatay, huwag ninyong hihiwaan ang inyong sarili ni aahitan ang inyong noo upang ipakita lamang na kayo'y nagluluksa. Kayo(B) ay bansang itinalaga kay Yahweh. Hinirang niya kayo sa lahat ng bansa upang maging kanyang sariling bayan.

Ang Malilinis at ang Maruruming Hayop(C)

“Huwag kayong kakain ng anumang bagay na marumi. Ito ang mga hayop na maaari ninyong kainin: baka, tupa, kambing, usa, gacela, kambing bundok, antilope, at tupang bundok. Maaari rin ninyong kainin ang lahat ng hayop na biyak ang kuko at ngumunguya ng pagkaing mula sa sikmura. Ngunit huwag ninyong kakainin ang mga hayop na biyak ang kuko ngunit hindi ngumunguya ng pagkain mula sa sikmura. Huwag din ninyong kakainin iyong ngumunguya ngunit hindi biyak ang kuko, tulad ng kamelyo, kuneho, at dagang bukid. Ang mga ito ay marurumi. Ang baboy ay dapat ding ituring na marumi sapagkat biyak man ang kuko, hindi naman ito ngumunguya ng pagkaing mula sa sikmura. Huwag ninyo itong kakainin ni hahawakan ang kanilang bangkay.

“Sa mga nilikha sa tubig, ang lahat ng may palikpik at kaliskis ay maaari ninyong kainin. 10 Huwag ninyong kakainin ang mga walang kaliskis at walang palikpik; ito ay marurumi.

11-18 “Maaari ninyong kainin ang malilinis na ibon. Ngunit ito ang mga ibon na huwag ninyong kakainin: agila, buwitre, agilang dagat; azor, falcon, at lahat ng uri ng milano; lahat ng uri ng uwak; ang ostrits, kuwago, gaviota, at lahat ng uri ng lawin; lahat ng uri ng kuwago, sisne, pelicano, buwitre, somormuho; lahat ng uri ng tagak, abudilla, kabag, at paniki.

19 “Lahat ng kulisap na may pakpak ay marurumi. Huwag ninyong kakainin ang mga ito. 20 Maaari ninyong kainin ang anumang malilinis na ibon maliban sa mga nabanggit.

21 “Huwag(D) ninyong kakainin ang anumang hayop na basta na lamang namatay. Maaari ninyo itong ibigay o ipagbili sa mga dayuhang naninirahang kasama ninyo. Ito'y sa dahilang kayo'y sambayanang inilaan sa Diyos ninyong si Yahweh.

“Huwag kayong maglalaga ng tupa o batang kambing sa gatas ng sarili nitong ina.

Ang Tuntunin tungkol sa Ikasampung Bahagi

22 “Kukunan(E) ninyo ng ikasampung bahagi ang inyong ani taun-taon. 23 Ang ikasampung bahagi ng inyong ani, alak, langis, at ang panganay ng inyong mga alagang hayop ay doon ninyo kakainin sa lugar na pipiliin ng Diyos ninyong si Yahweh upang siya'y inyong maparangalan. 24 Kung malayo ang lugar na pipiliin niya at magiging mahirap dalhin doon ang ikasampung bahagi ng inyong ani, 25 ipagbili ninyo iyon, at dalhin ang pinagbilhan sa lugar na pinili niya. 26 Pagdating doon, bumili kayo ng anumang gusto ninyo: baka, tupa, alak, o inuming nais ninyo at siya ninyong pagsalu-saluhang mag-anak bilang pagdiriwang sa harapan ng Diyos ninyong si Yahweh. 27 Ngunit huwag ninyong kalilimutang bigyan ang mga Levita sa inyong lugar, yamang sila'y walang kaparte sa lupaing minana ninyo.

28 “Tipunin ninyo ang ikasampung bahagi ng inyong ani tuwing ikatlong taon. 29 Ito ay ibibigay ninyo sa mga Levita yamang wala silang kaparte sa inyong lupain. Bibigyan din ninyo ang mga dayuhang kasama ninyo, ang mga ulila, at ang mga balo. Kapag ginawa ninyo ito, pagpapalain kayo ni Yahweh sa lahat ng inyong mga gawain.

Clean and Unclean Food

14 “You are (A)the sons of the Lord your God. (B)You shall not cut yourselves or make any (C)baldness on your foreheads for the dead. For (D)you are a people holy to the Lord your God, and the Lord has chosen you to be a people for his treasured possession, out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.

(E)“You shall not eat any abomination. (F)These are the animals you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat, the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex,[a] the antelope, and the mountain sheep. Every animal that parts the hoof and has the hoof cloven in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat. Yet of those that chew the cud or have the hoof cloven you shall not eat these: the camel, the hare, and the (G)rock badger, because they chew the cud but do not part the hoof, are unclean for you. And the pig, because it parts the hoof but does not chew the cud, is unclean for you. Their flesh you shall not eat, and (H)their carcasses you shall not touch.

“Of all that are in the waters you may eat these: whatever has fins and scales you may eat. 10 And whatever does not have fins and scales you shall not eat; it is unclean for you.

11 “You may eat all clean birds. 12 But these are the ones that you shall not eat: the eagle,[b] the bearded vulture, the black vulture, 13 the kite, the falcon of any kind; 14 every raven of any kind; 15 the ostrich, the nighthawk, the sea gull, the hawk of any kind; 16 the little owl and the short-eared owl, the barn owl 17 and the tawny owl, the carrion vulture and the cormorant, 18 the stork, the heron of any kind; the hoopoe and the bat. 19 And all winged insects are unclean for you; they shall not be eaten. 20 All clean winged things you may eat.

21 (I)“You shall not eat anything that has died naturally. You may give it to the sojourner who is within your towns, that he may eat it, or you may sell it to a foreigner. For (J)you are a people holy to the Lord your God.

(K)“You shall not boil a young goat in its mother's milk.

Tithes

22 (L)“You shall tithe all the yield of your seed that comes from the field year by year. 23 And before the Lord your God, in the place that he will choose, to make his name dwell there, (M)you shall eat the tithe of your grain, of your wine, and of your oil, (N)and the firstborn of your herd and flock, (O)that you may learn to fear the Lord your God always. 24 And if the way is too long for you, so that you are not able to carry the tithe, when the Lord your God blesses you, because (P)the place is too far from you, which the Lord your God chooses, to set his name there, 25 then you shall turn it into money and bind up the money in your hand and go to the place that the Lord your God chooses 26 and spend the money for whatever you desire—oxen or sheep or wine or strong drink, whatever your appetite craves. And (Q)you shall eat there before the Lord your God and rejoice, you and your household. 27 And you shall not neglect (R)the Levite who is within your towns, for (S)he has no portion or inheritance with you.

28 (T)“At the end of every three years you shall bring out all the tithe of your produce in the same year and lay it up within your towns. 29 And the Levite, because (U)he has no portion or inheritance with you, and the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, who are within your towns, shall come and eat and be filled, that (V)the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands that you do.
