Deuteronomy 14:7

Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that divide the cloven hoof; [as] the camel, and the hare, and the coney: for they chew the cud, but divide not the hoof; [therefore] they [are] unclean unto you.

Nevertheless these ye shall not eat {H398} of them that chew {H5927} the cud {H1625}, or of them that divide {H6536} the cloven {H8156} hoof {H6541}; as the camel {H1581}, and the hare {H768}, and the coney {H8227}: for they chew {H5927} the cud {H1625}, but divide {H6536} not the hoof {H6541}; therefore they are unclean {H2931} unto you.

But you are not to eat those that only chew the cud or only have a divided hoof. For example, the camel, the hare and the coney are unclean for you because they chew the cud but don't have a separate hoof;

But of those that chew the cud or have a completely divided hoof, you are not to eat the following: the camel, the rabbit, or the rock badger.

Nevertheless these ye shall not eat of them that chew the cud, or of them that have the hoof cloven: the camel, and the hare, and the coney; because they chew the cud but part not the hoof, they are unclean unto you.
