^15 (A)“And every person who eats what died naturally or what was torn by beasts, whether he is a native of your own country or a stranger, ^(B)he shall both wash his clothes and ^(C)bathe in water, and be unclean until evening. Then he shall be clean.

¹⁴ So I said, ^(A)“Ah, Lord God! Indeed I have never defiled myself from my youth till now; I have never eaten ^(B)what died of itself or was torn by beasts, nor has ^(C)abominable^[a] flesh ever come into my mouth.”
