World English Bible Public Domain
You shall not eat of anything that dies of itself: you may give it to the foreigner living among you who is within your gates, that he may eat it; or you may sell it to a foreigner: for you are a holy people to Yahweh your God. You shall not boil a kid in its mother's milk.

King James Version Public Domain
Ye shall not eat of anything that dieth of itself: thou shalt give it unto the stranger that is in thy gates, that he may eat it; or thou mayest sell it unto an alien: for thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.

You must not eat anything dying; you may give it to the sojourner who within your gates, and he may eat it or sell to a foreigner. For you a nation sanctified to Yahweh your God. You must not boil a young goat in the milk of its mother.
