Deuteronomy 14:12

These are the ones you may not eat: the eagle, ¹  the vulture, ²  the black vulture, ³ 

But these you may not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the black vulture,

"But these are the ones which you shall not eat: the eagle and the vulture and the buzzard,

These are the birds you may not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the osprey,

These are the exceptions, so don't eat these: eagle, vulture, black vulture,

But these birds you may not take: the eagle and the gier-eagle and the ospray;

But these are the ones that you shall not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the osprey,

"But these you shall not eat: the eagle, the vulture, the buzzard,

These are the ones you may not eat: the eagle, ¹  the vulture, ²  the black vulture, ³ 

¹ tn NEB “the griffon-vulture.”

² tn The Hebrew term פֶּרֶס (peres) describes a large vulture otherwise known as the ossifrage (cf. KJV). This largest of the vultures takes its name from its habit of dropping skeletal remains from a great height so as to break the bones apart.

³ tn The Hebrew term עָזְנִיָּה (’ozniyyah) may describe the black vulture (so NIV) or it may refer to the osprey (so NAB, NRSV, NLT), an eagle-like bird subsisting mainly on fish.
