Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations.

BrLXX Καὶ τὸν ὗν, ὅτι διχηλεῖ ὁπλὴν τοῦτο, καὶ ὀνυχίζει ὄνυχας ὁπλῆς, καὶ τοῦτο οὐκ ἀνάγει μηρυκισμὸν, ἀκάθαρτον τοῦτο ὑμῖν.

BrTr And the swine, because this animal divides the hoof, and makes claws of the hoof, and it does not chew the cud, is unclean to you.
ULT And the pig, because it is dividing the hoof and splitting the cleft of the hoof, but it itself does not chew the cud. It is unclean to you.

11:1–15:33 These chapters detail the regulations pertaining to purity. The mixing of types of animals was forbidden (see Deut 22:9-11) because it represented a violation of the normal created order. “Abnormal” creatures—such as fish without fins and scales, carnivores, crawling insects, and animals without split hooves—cross boundaries between “normal” types and were unfit for food or offerings (see also Deut 14:1-21). The dietary laws were meant to distinguish Israel as a holy people from the surrounding nations (Lev 11:44-45).

וְאֶת־הַ֠חֲזִיר כִּֽי
and=DOM the,pig that/for/because/then/when
The word because indicates that what follows is a reason for what came before. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that what follows is a reason for what came before. Alternate translation: “Likewise, you shall not eat the pig. This is because”
Note 2 topic: translate-unknown
וְאֶת־הַ֠חֲזִיר
and=DOM the,pig
This pig is a hoofed swine with a flat snout for rooting in the soil. If your readers would not be familiar with this type of animal, you could use the name of something similar in your area, or you could use a more general term.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / genericnoun
וְאֶת־הַ֠חֲזִיר
and=DOM the,pig
The expression the pig does not refer to a specific animal. It describes any pig that an Israelite might encounter. Express this in the way that would be most natural in your language. Alternate translation: “And any pig”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism
כִּֽי־מַפְרִ֨יס פַּרְסָ֜ה ה֗וּא וְשֹׁסַ֥ע שֶׁ֨סַע֙ פַּרְסָ֔ה
that/for/because/then/when divided hoof he/it and,has_a_split cleft hoof
These two phrases mean basically the same thing. The second emphasizes the meaning of the first by repeating the same idea with different words. If it would be helpful to your readers, you could connect the phrases with a word other than and in order to show that the second phrase is repeating the first one, not saying something additional. Alternate translation: “because it is dividing the hoof in a way that splits the cleft of the hooves completely”
Note 5 topic: writing-poetry
מַפְרִ֨יס פַּרְסָ֜ה ה֗וּא
divided hoof he/it
See how you translated these repeated words in 11:5.
Note 6 topic: writing-poetry
וְשֹׁסַ֥ע שֶׁ֨סַע֙ פַּרְסָ֔ה
and,has_a_split cleft hoof
Here, words are being repeated for emphasis. The verb splitting comes from the same root as the noun cleft. You may be able to use the same construction in your language to express the meaning here. Alternatively, your language may have another way of showing the emphasis. Alternate translation: “and the cleft if the hoof is totally split”
Note 7 topic: writing-poetry
וְה֖וּא גֵּרָ֣ה לֹֽא־יִגָּ֑ר
and=he cud not chew
Here, words are being repeated for emphasis. Here, the verb chew comes from the same root as the noun cud. You may be able to use the same construction in your language to express the meaning here. Alternatively, your language may have another way of showing the emphasis. Alternate translation: “but it itself does not chew the cud”
Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / rpronouns
וְה֖וּא גֵּרָ֣ה לֹֽא־יִגָּ֑ר
and=he cud not chew
This expression uses the word itself to emphasize that the pig does not chew the cud. Use a way that is natural in your language to indicate this significance. Alternate translation: “but the pig itself does not chew the cud”
