Ein Aas und was von wilden Tieren zerreißen ist, soll er nicht essen, auf daß er nicht unrein daran werde; denn ich bin der HERR.
Mortecino ni despedazado por fiera no comerá, para contaminarse en ello: Yo Jehová.
Il ne mangera point d'une bête morte ou déchirée, afin de ne pas se souiller par elle. Je suis l'Eternel.
Non mangi il sacerdote alcuna carne di bestia morta da sè, o lacerata dalle fiere, per rendersi immondo. Io sono il Signore.
O corpo morto e o dilacerado não comerá, para que não se contamine com ele. Eu sou o SENHOR.
自然死去的或被野獸撕裂的,他不可吃,免得玷污自己。我是耶和華。
