LE-18:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
LE-18:2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I
am the LORD
your God.
LE-18:3 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 ordinances.
LE-18:4 Ye shall do my judgments, and keep mine ordinances, to
walk therein:
I [am] the LORD your God.
LE-18:5 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments:
which if a man
do, he shall live in them: I [am] the LORD.
LE-18:6 None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin
to him, to
uncover [their] nakedness: I [am] the LORD.
LE-18:7 The nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy
mother, shalt
thou not uncover: she [is] thy mother; thou shalt not uncover
her nakedness.
LE-18:8 The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not
uncover: it [is]
thy father's nakedness.
LE-18:9 The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father,
or daughter
of thy mother, [whether she be] born at home, or born abroad,
[even] their
nakedness thou shalt not uncover.
LE-18:10 The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy
daughter's daughter,
[even] their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for theirs [is]
thine own
nakedness.
LE-18:11 The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter,
begotten of thy
father, she [is] thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her
nakedness.
LE-18:12 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's
sister: she
[is] thy father's near kinswoman.
LE-18:13 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's
sister; for she
[is] thy mother's near kinswoman.
LE-18:14 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's
brother, thou
shalt not approach to his wife: she [is] thine aunt.
LE-18:15 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter
in law: she
[is] thy son's wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
LE-18:16 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother's
wife: it [is]
thy brother's nakedness.
LE-18:17 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and
her daughter,
neither shalt thou take her son's daughter, or her daughter's
daughter, to
uncover her nakedness; [for] they [are] her near kinswomen: it
[is]
wickedness.
LE-18:18 Neither shalt thou take a wife to her sister, to vex
[her], to
uncover her nakedness, beside the other in her life [time].
LE-18:19 Also thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover
her nakedness,
as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.
LE-18:20 Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy
neighbour's wife, to
defile thyself with her.
LE-18:21 And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through
[the fire] to
Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I [am]
the LORD.
LE-18:22 Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it
[is]
abomination.
LE-18:23 Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile
thyself therewith:
neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto:
it [is]
confusion.
LE-18:24 Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things: for
in all these
the nations are defiled which I cast out before you:
LE-18:25 And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit the
iniquity thereof
upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.
LE-18:26 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments,
and shall not
commit [any] of these abominations; [neither] any of your own
nation, nor any
stranger that sojourneth among you:
LE-18:27 (For all these abominations have the men of the land
done, which
[were] before you, and the land is defiled;)
LE-18:28 That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it,
as it spued
out the nations that [were] before you.
LE-18:29 For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations,
even the souls
that commit [them] shall be cut off from among their people.
LE-18:30 Therefore shall ye keep mine ordinance, that [ye]
commit not [any
one] of these abominable customs, which were committed before
you, and that ye
defile not yourselves therein: I [am] the LORD your God.
