¹⁹ If any flesh touch any unclean thing, it shall not be eaten. It shall be burned with fire. Every person who is clean may eat flesh.

¹⁹ For out of the heart come malicious surmises, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false testimonies, calumnies. ²⁰ These are the things which defile the man: but to eat with unwashen hands doth not defile the man.

²¹ For from within, out of the heart of man, proceed those evil surmises, adulteries, fornications, murders, ²² thefts, inordinate desires, malice, fraud, sensuality, envy, detraction, pride, foolishness. ²³ All these are the evil things which come from within, and defile the man.
