Verse 19 is found in chapter 14 of Deuteronomy. The laws concerning mourning, clean and unclean animals, and food establish Israel’s ritual identity. The people are called children of the Lord and a holy people, so their conduct even in matters of food must express their consecration. The prohibition of certain mourning and dietary practices distinguishes Israel from the customs of other peoples.

Und alles was Flügel hat und kriecht, soll euch unrein sein, und sollt es nicht essen.
Y todo reptil alado os será inmundo: no se comerá.
Todos los insectos alados son impuros para ustedes; no se comerán.
Vous regarderez comme impur tout reptile qui vole: on n'en mangera point.
Siavi parimente immondo ogni rettile volatile; non mangisene.
Também todo o inseto que voa, vos será imundo; não se comerá.
凡有翅膀卻爬行的群聚動物對你們是不潔淨的,都不可吃。
