Deuteronomy 14:19

Bible in Basic English 1965

Every winged thing which goes flat on the earth is unclean to you and may not be used as food.

See the chapter Copy

And God said, Let the waters be full of living things, and let birds be in flight over the earth under the arch of heaven.

The stork and the heron and birds of that sort, and the hoopoe and the bat.

But all clean birds you may take.

Whose end is destruction, whose god is the stomach, and whose glory is in their shame, whose minds are fixed on the things of the earth.
