¹And the Lord spoke to Moses and said, ²“And to the sons of Israel you will say, ‘Any man of the sons of Israel or of the foreigners who are dwelling in Israel who gives any of his seed to Molech will certainly be put to death. The people of the land will stone him. ³And I will set my face against that man, and I will cut him off from the midst of his people, because he has given some of his seed to Molech, so as to defile my sanctuary and to profane my holy name. ⁴And if the people of the land turn a blind eye to that man when he gives his seed to Molech, so that they do not put him to death, ⁵then I will set my face against that man and his family, and I will cut him off, and all those libertines who follow him in committing prostitution in following the practices of Molech, from the midst of their people. ⁶And as for any person who turns to the soothsayers or the wizards, to go whoring after them, I will set my face against that person, and I will cut him off from the midst of his people. ⁷And you will sanctify yourselves, and you will be holy, for I am the Lord your God. ⁸And you will keep my statutes, and you will do them. I am the Lord who sanctifies you. ⁹For any man who curses his father or his mother will certainly be put to death. He has cursed his father or his mother; his blood will be upon him. ¹⁰And as for a man who commits adultery with the wife of a man – who commits adultery with the wife of his neighbour – the adulterer and adulteress will certainly be put to death. ¹¹And a man who sleeps with his father's wife has uncovered the nakedness of his father. The two of them will certainly be put to death; their blood will be upon them. ¹²And as for a man who sleeps with his daughter-in-law, the two of them will certainly be put to death; they have committed a perversion. Their blood will be upon them. ¹³And as for a man who lies with a male as in the act of lying with a woman, they have both committed an abomination. They will certainly be put to death; their blood will be upon them. ¹⁴And if a man takes a wife and her mother, it is lewdness; they will burn him and them with fire, so that there will be no lewdness in your midst. ¹⁵A man who lies with an animal will certainly be put to death, and you will kill the animal. ¹⁶And if any woman approaches any animal so that it copulates with her, then you will kill the woman and the animal. They will certainly be put to death; their blood will be upon them. ¹⁷And if a man 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 disgrace, and they will be cut off in the sight of the sons of their people, for he has uncovered the nakedness of his sister; he will bear his iniquity. ¹⁸And if a man lies with a woman ailing in her menstrual sickness, and he uncovers her nakedness, he has exposed her source of bleeding, and she has uncovered the source of her bleeding, and the two of them will be cut off from their people. ¹⁹And you will not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister or your father's sister, for he would be making his kin bare; they will bear their iniquity. ²⁰And any man who sleeps with his aunt-in-law has uncovered his uncle's nakedness; they will bear their sin; they will die childless. ²¹And any man who takes his brother's wife – it is an unclean thing – he has uncovered his brother's nakedness; they will be childless. ²²And you shall keep all my statutes and all my regulations, and you will do them, so that the land, which I am bringing you to, to inhabit it, does not vomit you up. ²³And do not walk in the statutes of the people whom I am driving out before you, for they do all these things, and I abhor them. ²⁴And I said to you, «You will inherit their land, and I will give it to you, to inherit it, a land flowing with milk and honey.» I am the Lord your God, who separated you from the various peoples. ²⁵And you will make a distinction between clean animals and unclean ones, and between unclean birds and clean ones, and you will not make yourselves abominable with animals or birds or with anything that creeps on the earth, which I have divided off for you to regard as unclean. ²⁶And you will be holy to me, for I, the Lord, am holy, and I have separated you from the various peoples to be mine. ²⁷And any man or woman among them who is a soothsayer or wizard will certainly be put to death. They will stone them; their blood will be upon them.’ ”
