1
And Jehovah spake unto Moses , saying,
2
Moreover, thou shalt say to the children of Israel , Whosoever he be of the children of Israel , or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel , that giveth of his seed unto Molech ; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones .
3
I also will set my face against that man , and will cut him off from among his people ; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech , to defile my sanctuary , and to profane my holy name .
4
And if the people at the land do at all hide their eyes from that man , when he giveth of his seed unto Molech , and put 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 that play the harlot after him, to play the harlot with Molech , from among their people .
6
And the soul that turneth unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto the wizards , to play the harlot after them, I will even set my face against that soul , and will cut him off from among his people.
7
Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy; for I am Jehovah your God .
8
And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I am Jehovah who sanctifieth you.
9
For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall surely be put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother ; his blood shall be upon him.
10
And the man that committeth adultery with another man 's wife , even he that committeth adultery with his neighbor's wife , the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
11
And the man that lieth with his father 's wife hath uncovered his father 's nakedness : both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
12
And if a man lie with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood shall be upon them.
13
And if a man lie with mankind , as with womankind, both of them have committed abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
14
And if a man take a wife and her mother , it is wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire , both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you.
15
And if a man lie with a beast , he shall surely be put to death: and ye shall slay the beast .
16
And if a woman approach unto any beast , and lie down thereto, thou shalt kill the woman , and the beast : they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
17
And if a man shall take his sister , his father 's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness , and she see his nakedness ; it is a shameful thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of the children of their people : he hath uncovered his sister 's nakedness ; he shall bear his iniquity .
18
And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness , and shall uncover her nakedness ; he hath made naked her fountain , and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood : and both of them shall be cut off from among their people .
19
And thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister , nor of thy father 's sister ; for he hath made naked his near kin: they shall bear their iniquity .
20
And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife, he hath uncovered his uncle's nakedness : they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
21
And if a man shall take his brother 's wife , it is impurity: he hath uncovered his brother 's nakedness ; they shall be childless.
22
Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes , and all mine ordinances , and do them; that the land , whither I bring you to dwell therein, vomit you not out.
23
And ye shall not walk in the customs of the nation , which I cast out before you: for they did all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
24
But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land , and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey : I am Jehovah your God , who hath separated you from the peoples.
25
Ye shall therefore make a distinction between the clean beast and the unclean , and between the unclean fowl and the clean : and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast , or by bird , or by anything wherewith the ground teemeth, which I have separated from you as unclean .
26
And ye shall be holy unto me: for I, Jehovah , am holy, and have set you apart from the peoples, that ye should be mine.
27
A man also or a woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard , shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones ; their blood shall be upon them.
