²² Of these you may eat any kind of locust, katydid, cricket, or grasshopper.

²³ All other flying insects that have four legs are detestable to you.

²⁴ These creatures will make you unclean. Whoever touches their carcasses will be unclean until evening,

²⁵ and whoever picks up one of their carcasses must wash his clothes, and he will be unclean until evening.
