Leviticus 20:25-26
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
25 (A)You, too, must set apart, then, the clean animals from the unclean, and the clean birds from the unclean, so that you do not make yourselves detestable through any beast or bird or any creature which creeps on the ground that I have set apart for you as unclean. 26 To me, therefore, you shall be holy; for I, the Lord, am holy,(B) and I have set you apart from other peoples to be my own.
