And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses , saying,
2
`And unto the sons of Israel thou dost say , Any man of the sons of Israel , and of the sojourners who is sojourning in Israel , who giveth of his seed to the Molech , is certainly put to death; the people of the land do stone him with stones ;
3
and I -- I set My face against that man , and have cut him off from the midst of his people , for of his seed he hath given to the Molech , so as to defile My sanctuary , and to pollute My holy name .
4
`And if the people of the land really hide their eyes from that man , in his giving of his seed to the Molech , so as not to put him to death,
5
then I have set My face against that man , and against his family , and have cut him off, and all who are going a-whoring after him, even going a-whoring after the Molech , from the midst of their people .
6
`And the person who turneth unto those having familiar spirits, and unto the wizards , to go a-whoring after them, I have even set My face against that person, and cut him off from the midst of his people.
7
`And ye have sanctified yourselves, and ye have been holy, for I [am] Jehovah your God ;
8
and ye have kept My statutes and have done them; I [am] Jehovah , sanctifying you.
9
`For any man who revileth his father and his mother is certainly put to death; his father and his mother he hath reviled : his blood [is] on him.
10
`And a man who committeth adultery with a man 's wife -- who committeth adultery with the wife of his neighbour -- the adulterer and the adulteress are surely put to death.
11
`And a man who lieth with his father 's wife -- the nakedness of his father he hath uncovered -- both of them are certainly put to death; their blood [is] on them.
12
`And a man who lieth with his daughter-in-law -- both of them are certainly put to death; confusion they have made; their blood [is] on them.
13
`And a man who lieth with a male as one lieth with a woman ; abomination both of them have done; they are certainly put to death; their blood [is] on them.
14
`And a man who taketh the woman and her mother -- it [is] wickedness; with fire they burn him and them, and there is no wickedness in your midst .
15
`And a man who giveth his lying with a beast is certainly put to death, and the beast ye do slay .
16
`And a woman who draweth near unto any beast to lie with it -- thou hast even slain the woman and the beast ; they are certainly put to death; their blood [is] on them.
17
`And a man who taketh his sister , a daughter of his father or daughter of his mother , and he hath seen her nakedness , and she seeth his nakedness : it is a shame; and they have been cut off before the eyes of the sons of their people ; the nakedness of his sister he hath uncovered ; his iniquity he beareth.
18
`And a man who lieth with a sick woman , and hath uncovered her nakedness , her fountain he hath made bare, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood , -- even both of them have been cut off from the midst of their people .
19
`And the nakedness of thy mother's sister , and of thy father 's sister , thou dost not uncover ; because his relation he hath made bare; their iniquity they bear .
20
`And a man who lieth with his aunt, the nakedness of his uncle he hath uncovered ; their sin they bear ; childless they die .
21
`And a man who taketh his brother 's wife -- it [is] impurity; the nakedness of his brother he hath uncovered ; childless they are.
22
`And ye have kept all My statutes , and all My judgments , and have done them, and the land vomiteth you not out whither I am bringing you in to dwell in it;
23
and ye walk not in the statutes of the nation which I am sending away from before you, for all these they have done, and I am wearied with them;
24
and I say to you, Ye -- ye do possess their ground , and I -- I give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey ; I [am] Jehovah your God , who hath separated you from the peoples.
25
`And ye have made separation between the pure beasts and the unclean , and between the unclean fowl and the pure , and ye do not make yourselves abominable by beast or by fowl , or by anything which creepeth [on] the ground which I have separated to you for unclean ;
26
and ye have been holy to Me; for holy [am] I, Jehovah ; and I separate you from the peoples to become Mine.
27
`And a man or woman -- when there is in them a familiar spirit, or who [are] wizards -- are certainly put to death; with stones they stone them; their blood [is] on them.'
