1And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, 2Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: I am Jehovah your God. 3According to the doings of the land of Egypt, where you have dwelt, you shall not do; and according to the doings of the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you, you shall not do; nor shall you walk in their ordinances. 4You shall do My judgments and keep My ordinances, to walk in them: I am Jehovah your God. 5You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, which if a man does, he shall live by them: I am Jehovah. 6None of you shall approach the flesh of anyone who is kin to him, to uncover their nakedness: I am Jehovah. 7The nakedness of your father or the nakedness of your mother you shall not uncover. She is your mother; you shall not uncover her nakedness. 8The nakedness of your father’s wife you shall not uncover; it is your father’s nakedness. 9The nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father, or the daughter of your mother, whether born at home or elsewhere, their nakedness you shall not uncover. 10The nakedness of your son’s daughter or your daughter’s daughter, their nakedness you shall not uncover; for theirs is your own nakedness. 11The nakedness of your father’s wife’s daughter, begotten by your father; she is your sister; you shall not uncover her nakedness. 12You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s sister; she is near of kin to your father. 13You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister, for she is near of kin to your mother. 14You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s brother: You shall not approach his wife; she is your aunt. 15You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law; she is your son’s wife; you shall not uncover her nakedness. 16You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brother’s wife; it is your brother’s nakedness. 17You shall not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter, nor shall you take her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness. They are near of kin to her. It is wickedness. 18Nor shall you take a woman and her sister, to vex her, to uncover her nakedness, while the other is alive. 19Also you shall not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness during her menstrual uncleanness. 20Moreover you shall not give seed to your neighbor’s wife through intercourse, to defile yourself with her. 21And you shall not give any of your seed to pass through the fire to Molech, nor shall you profane the name of your God: I am Jehovah. 22You shall not lie with a male as with a female. It is an abomination. 23Nor shall you mate with any beast, to defile yourself with it. Nor shall any woman stand before a beast to mate with it. It is perversion. 24Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; for by all these the nations which I am casting out before you have been defiled; 25for the land is defiled. Therefore I am visiting its depravity upon it, and the land is vomiting out its inhabitants. 26You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments, and shall not do any of these abominations, neither the native nor any stranger who sojourns among you 27(for all these abominations the men who were in the land before you have done, and the land is defiled), 28that the land not also vomit you out when you defile it, as it vomited out the nations that were before you. 29For whoever does any of these abominations, the persons who do them shall be cut off from among their people. 30Therefore you shall keep My charge, so that you do not do any of these abominable customs which were done before you, and that you do not defile yourselves by them: I am Jehovah your God.
