Bible verses about "food" | YLT

¹ And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying unto them, ² `Speak unto the sons of Israel, saying, This is the beast which ye do eat out of all the beasts which are on the earth: <sup>3</sup> any dividing a hoof, and cleaving the cleft of the hoofs, bringing up the cud, among the beasts, it ye do eat. <sup>4</sup> `Only, this ye do not eat—of those bringing up the cud, and of those dividing the hoof—the camel, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof not dividing—it is unclean to you; ⁵ and the rabbit, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof it divideth not—unclean it is to you; ⁶ and the hare, though it is bringing up the cud, yet the hoof hath not divided—unclean it is to you; ⁷ and the sow, though it is dividing the hoof, and cleaving the cleft of the hoof, yet the cud it bringeth not up—unclean it is to you. ⁸ `Of their flesh ye do not eat, and against their carcase ye do not come—unclean they are to you.
<sup>9</sup> `This ye do eat of all which are in the waters; any one that hath fins and scales in the waters, in the seas, and in the brooks, them ye do eat; ¹⁰ and any one that hath not fins and scales in the seas, and in the brooks, of any teeming creature of the waters, and of any creature which liveth, which is in the waters—an abomination they are to you; ¹¹ yea, an abomination they are to you; of their flesh ye do not eat, and their carcase ye abominate. ¹² `Any one that hath not fins and scales in the waters—an abomination it is to you. <sup>13</sup> `And these ye do abominate of the fowl; they are not eaten, an abomination they are : the eagle, and the ossifrage, and the ospray, ¹⁴ and the vulture, and the kite after its kind, ¹⁵ every raven after its kind, ¹⁶ and the owl, and the night-hawk, and the cuckoo, and the hawk after its kind, ¹⁷ and the little owl, and the cormorant, and the great owl, ¹⁸ and the swan, and the pelican, and the gier eagle, ¹⁹ and the stork, the heron after its kind, and the lapwing, and the bat.
²⁰ `Every teeming creature which is flying, which is going on four—an abomination it is to you. <sup>21</sup> `Only—this ye do eat of any teeming thing which is flying, which is going on four, which hath legs above its feet, to move with them on the earth; ²² these of them ye do eat: the locust after its kind, and the bald locust after its kind, and the beetle after its kind, and the grasshopper after its kind; ²³ and every teeming thing which is flying, which hath four feet—an abomination it is to you. ²⁴ `And by these ye are made unclean, any one who is coming against their carcase is unclean till the evening; <sup>25</sup> and anyone who is lifting up aught of their carcase doth wash his garments, and hath been unclean till the evening: — <sup>26</sup> even every beast which is dividing the hoof, and is not cloven-footed, and the cud is not bringing up—unclean they are to you; any one who is coming against them is unclean. <sup>27</sup> `And any one going on its paws, among all the beasts which are going on four—unclean they are to you; any one who is coming against their carcase is unclean until the evening; ²⁸ and he who is lifting up their carcase doth wash his garments, and hath been unclean until the evening—unclean they are to you. ²⁹ `And this is to you the unclean among the teeming things which are teeming on the earth: the weasel, and the mouse, and the tortoise after its kind, ³⁰ and the ferret, and the chameleon, and the lizard, and the snail, and the mole;

¹⁷ Better is an allowance of green herbs and love there, Than a fatted ox, and hatred with it.

¹⁵ And wine—it rejoiceth the heart of man, To cause the face to shine from oil, And bread—the heart of man it supporteth.

⁷ Go, eat with joy thy bread, and drink with a glad heart thy wine, for already hath God been pleased with thy works.

¹⁹ If ye are willing, and have hearkened, The good of the land ye consume,

¹⁴ And having called near all the multitude, he said to them, `Hearken to me, ye all, and understand; <sup>15</sup> there is nothing from without the man entering into him that is able to defile him, but the things coming out from him, those are the things defiling the man. <sup>16</sup> If any hath ears to hear—let him hear.' <sup>17</sup> And when he entered into a house from the multitude, his disciples were questioning him about the simile, <sup>18</sup> and he saith to them, `So also ye are without understanding! Do ye not perceive that nothing from without entering into the man is able to defile him? ¹⁹ because it doth not enter into his heart, but into the belly, and into the drain it doth go out, purifying all the meats.' ²⁰ And he said—`That which is coming out from the man, that doth defile the man; ²¹ for from within, out of the heart of men, the evil reasonings do come forth, adulteries, whoredoms, murders, ²² thefts, covetous desires, wickedness, deceit, arrogance, an evil eye, evil speaking, pride, foolishness; ²³ all these evils do come forth from within, and they defile the man.'

⁸ But victuals do not commend us to God, for neither if we may eat are we in advance; nor if we may not eat, are we behind;

⁴ because every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be rejected, with thanksgiving being received, ⁵ for it is sanctified through the word of God and intercession.

³⁵ And Jesus said to them, `I am the bread of the life; he who is coming unto me may not hunger, and he who is believing in me may not thirst—at any time;

¹ And him who is weak in the faith receive ye—not to determinations of reasonings; ² one doth believe that he may eat all things—and he who is weak doth eat herbs; ³ let not him who is eating despise him who is not eating: and let not him who is not eating judge him who is eating, for God did receive him. ⁴ Thou—who art thou that art judging another's domestic? to his own master he doth stand or fall; and he shall be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand. ⁵ One doth judge one day above another, and another doth judge every day alike; let each in his own mind be fully assured. ⁶ He who is regarding the day, to the Lord he doth regard it, and he who is not regarding the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it . He who is eating, to the Lord he doth eat, for he doth give thanks to God; and he who is not eating, to the Lord he doth not eat, and doth give thanks to God. ⁷ For none of us to himself doth live, and none to himself doth die; ⁸ for both, if we may live, to the Lord we live; if also we may die, to the Lord we die; both then if we may live, also if we may die, we are the Lord's; ⁹ for because of this Christ both died and rose again, and lived again, that both of dead and of living he may be Lord. ¹⁰ And thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? or again, thou, why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand at the tribunal of the Christ; ¹¹ for it hath been written, `I live! saith the Lord—to Me bow shall every knee, and every tongue shall confess to God;' ¹² so, then, each of us concerning himself shall give reckoning to God; ¹³ no longer, therefore, may we judge one another, but this judge ye rather, not to put a stumbling-stone before the brother, or an offence. ¹⁴ I have known, and am persuaded, in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself, except to him who is reckoning anything to be unclean—to that one it is unclean; ¹⁵ and if through victuals thy brother is grieved, no more dost thou walk according to love; do not with thy victuals destroy that one for whom Christ died. ¹⁶ Let not, then, your good be evil spoken of, ¹⁷ for the reign of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit; ¹⁸ for he who in these things is serving the Christ, is acceptable to God and approved of men. ¹⁹ So, then, the things of peace may we pursue, and the things of building up one another; ²⁰ for the sake of victuals cast not down the work of God; all things, indeed, are pure, but evil is to the man who is eating through stumbling. ²¹ Right it is not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to do anything in which thy brother doth stumble, or is made to fall, or is weak. ²² Thou hast faith! to thyself have it before God; happy is he who is not judging himself in what he doth approve, ²³ and he who is making a difference, if he may eat, hath been condemned, because it is not of faith; and all that is not of faith is sin.

³ Every creeping thing that is alive, to you it is for food; as the green herb I have given to you the whole;

²⁹ And God saith, `Lo, I have given to you every herb sowing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree in which is the fruit of a tree sowing seed, to you it is for food;

³¹ Whether, then, ye eat, or drink, or do anything, do all to the glory of God;
