Whatsoever hath no fins nor scales in the waters, that [shall be] an abomination unto you (11:12)

Yet these may ye eat of every flying creeping thing that goeth upon [all] four, which have legs above their feet, to leap withal upon the earth; (11:21)

[Even] these of them ye may eat; the locust after his kind, and the bald locust after his kind, and the beetle after his kind, and the grasshopper after his kind (11:22)

But all [other] flying creeping things, which have four feet, [shall be] an abomination unto you (11:23)

For I [am] the Lord that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I [am] holy (11:45)

This [is] the law of the beasts, and of the fowl, and of every living creature that moveth in the waters, and of every creature that creepeth upon the earth: (11:46)
