uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter; thou shalt not take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness: they are near kinswomen; it is lewdness. 18And thou shalt not take a woman to her sister, to be a rival to her, to uncover her nakedness, beside the other in her life-time. 19And thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is impure by her uncleanness. 20And thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife, to defile thyself with her. 21And thou shalt not give any of thy seed to set them apart to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the Lord. 22Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind; it is abomination. 23And thou shalt not lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith; neither shall any woman stand before a beast, to lie down thereto; it is perversion.
24Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things; for in all these the nations are defiled, which I cast out from before you. 25And the land was defiled, therefore I did visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land vomited out her inhabitants. 26Ye therefore shall keep My statutes and Mine ordinances, and shall not do any of these abominations; neither the home-born, nor the stranger that sojourneth among you— 27for all these abominations have the men of the land done, that were before you, and the land is defiled— 28that the land vomit not you out also, when ye defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you. 29For whosoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people. 30Therefore shall ye keep My charge, that ye do not any of these abominable customs, which were done before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am the Lord your God.

19And the Lord spoke unto Moses, saying: 2Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them:
Ye shall be holy; for I the Lord your God am holy. 3Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and ye shall keep My sabbaths: I am the Lord your God. 4Turn ye not unto the idols, nor make to yourselves molten gods: I am the Lord your God.
5And when ye offer a sacrifice of peace-offerings unto the Lord, ye shall offer it that ye may be accepted. 6It shall be eaten the same day ye offer it, and on the morrow; and if aught remain until the third day, it shall be burnt with fire. 7And if it be eaten at all on the third day, it is a vile thing; it shall not be accepted. 8But every one that eateth it shall bear his iniquity, because he hath profaned the holy thing of the Lord; and that soul shall be cut off from his people.
9And when ye reap the harvest of your land, thou shalt not wholly reap the corner of thy field, neither shalt thou gather the gleaning of thy harvest. 10And thou shalt not glean thy vineyard, neither shalt thou gather the fallen fruit of thy vineyard; thou shalt leave them for the poor and for the stranger: I am the Lord your God. 11Ye shall not steal; neither shall ye deal falsely, nor lie one to another. 12And ye shall not swear by My name falsely, so that thou profane the name of thy God: I am the Lord. 13Thou shalt not oppress thy neighbour, nor rob him; the wages of a hired servant
