1: And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, 2: Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am Jehovah your God. 3: After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do; and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not do; neither shall ye walk in their customs. 4: Mine ordinances shall ye do and my statutes shall ye observe to walk therein: I am Jehovah your God. 5: And ye shall observe my statutes and my judgments, by which the man that doeth them shall live: I am Jehovah. 6: No one shall approach to any that is his near relation, to uncover his nakedness: I am Jehovah. 7: The nakedness of thy father, and the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother: thou shalt not uncover her nakedness. 8: The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father's nakedness. 9: The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or daughter of thy mother, born at home, or born abroad -- their nakedness shalt thou not uncover. 10: The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's daughter -- their nakedness shalt thou not uncover; for theirs is thy nakedness. 11: The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter, begotten of thy father: she is thy sister: thou shalt not uncover her nakedness. 12: The nakedness of thy father's sister shalt thou not uncover: she is thy father's near relation. 13: The nakedness of thy mother's sister shalt thou not uncover; for she is thy mother's near relation. 14: The nakedness of thy father's brother shalt thou not uncover; thou shalt not approach his wife: she is thine aunt. 15: The nakedness of thy daughter-in-law shalt thou not uncover: she is thy son's wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness. 16: The nakedness of thy brother's wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy brother's nakedness. 17: The nakedness of a woman and her daughter shalt thou not uncover; thou shalt not take her son's daughter, nor her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness: they are her near relations: it is wickedness. 18: And thou shalt not take a wife to her sister, to vex her, to uncover her nakedness beside her, during her life. 19: And thou shalt not approach a woman in the separation of her uncleanness to uncover her nakedness. 20: And thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife, to become unclean with her. 21: And thou shalt not give of thy seed to let them pass through [the fire] to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am Jehovah. 22: And thou shalt not lie with mankind as one lieth with a woman: it is an abomination. 23: And thou shalt lie with no beast to become unclean therewith; and a woman shall not stand before a beast to lie down with it: it is confusion. 24: Make not yourselves unclean in any of these things; for in all these have the nations which I am casting out before you made themselves unclean. 25: And the land hath become unclean; and I visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land vomiteth out its inhabitants. 26: But ye shall observe my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit any of all these abominations: the home-born, and the stranger that sojourneth among you; 27: (for all these abominations have the men of the land done, who were before you, and the land hath been made unclean); 28: that the land vomit you not out, when ye make it unclean, as it vomited out the nation that was before you. 29: For whoever committeth any of these abominations, ... the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people. 30: And ye shall observe my charge, that ye commit not [any] of the abominable customs which were committed before you; and ye shall not make yourselves unclean therein: I am Jehovah your God.
