1
And Jehovah spoke to▵ Moses, saying,
2
And to▵ the sons of Israel thou shalt say, A man◦, a man◦ from the sons of Israel and from the sojourners who sojourn in Israel, who gives from his seed to Molech, dying he shall be put··to··death; the people of the land shall stone▵ him with stones.
3
And I◦ will put◦ My face against◦ that◦ man◦, and will cut· him ·off from among his people; because◦ he◦ has given of his seed to Molech, in··order··to defile My sanctuary, and to profane My holy name.
4
And if hiding◦ the people of the land do hide◦ their eyes from that◦ man◦, when he gives from his seed to Molech, putting· him not▵ ·to··death;
5
then I◦ will set My face against that◦ man◦, and against his family, and will cut· him ·off, and all who commit··harlotry after him, to commit··harlotry after Molech, from among their people.
6
And the soul who turns· the ·face to▵ mediums, and to▵ soothsayers, to commit··harlotry after them, I also will put◦ My face against◦ that◦ soul, and will cut· him ·off from among his people.
7
And sanctify yourselves, and be ye holy; for I◦ am Jehovah your God.
8
And you shall keep My statutes, and do them; I◦ am Jehovah who is sanctifying you.
9
For a man◦, a man◦ who reviles his father and his mother, dying he shall be made to die; he has reviled his father and his mother; his blood shall be on◦ him.
10
And the man◦ who commits··adultery with◦ another man’s◦ wife, even he who commits··adultery with◦ the wife of his companion, the adulterer and the adulteress dying shall be··put··to··death.
11
And the man◦ who lies with◦ the wife of his father has revealed the nakedness of his father; the two of them dying shall be··put··to··death; their bloods* shall be on◦ them.
12
And a man◦ that lie with◦ his daughter-in-law, the two of them dying shall be put··to··death; they have done confusion; their bloods shall be on◦ them.
13
And a man◦ that lie with◦ a male as he would lie with a woman, the two of them have done an abomination; dying they shall be put··to··death; their bloods shall be on◦ them.
14
And when▵ a man◦ takes a woman and her mother, it◦ is a crime; they shall be burnt··up with fire, both he and they; and there shall not be crime in your midst.
15
And a man◦ who gives himself to lie with a beast, dying he shall be··put··to··death; and you shall kill the beast.
16
And a woman that comes··near to▵ any beast to lie··down▵ with◦ it, then thou shalt kill the woman and the beast; dying they shall be put··to··death; their bloods shall be on◦ them.
17
And a man◦ who takes his sister, the daughter of his father, or the daughter of his mother, and sees her nakedness, and she◦ sees his nakedness, it◦ is a wicked thing*, and they shall be cut··off before▫ the eyes of the sons of their people; he has revealed the nakedness of his sister; he shall bear his iniquity.
18
And a man◦ who lies with◦ a woman with infirmity, and shall reveal her nakedness; he has made··naked her issue, and she◦ has revealed the issue of her blood; and the two of them shall be cut··off from among their people.
19
And thou shalt not reveal the nakedness of the sister of thy mother, nor the sister of thy father; for he has made··naked his own kin; they shall bear their iniquity.
20
And a man◦ who lies with◦ his aunt, he has revealed the nakedness of his uncle; they shall bear their sin; they shall··die childless.
21
And a man◦ who takes the wife of his brother, and she◦ is isolated; he has revealed the nakedness of his brother; they shall be childless.
22
And you shall keep all My statutes, and all My judgments, and do them; that the land, whither I◦ bring you to dwell in her, vomit· you not ·out.
23
And you shall not walk◦ in the statutes of the nation that I◦ sent··out from before you; for they did all of these things, and I loathed them.
24
But I have said to you, You◦ shall possess their ground, and I◦ will give it to you to possess it, a land that flows with milk and honey; I◦ am Jehovah your God, who distinguished you from other people.
25
And you shall distinguish between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean fowls and clean; and you shall not make your souls be··detestable by the beast, or by the fowl, or by any thing that creeps on the ground, which I distinguished for you to be··unclean.
26
And you shall be holy to Me; for I◦, Jehovah, am holy, and distinguished you from other people, that you should be Mine.
27
And a man◦ or a woman that is a medium, or a soothsayer, among◦ them, dying shall be··put··to··death; they shall stone▵ them with stones; their bloods shall be on◦ them.
