Do not defile yourselves with any of these things ;
for by all these the nations are defiled ,
which I am casting out before you .
*
For the land is defiled ;
therefore I visit the punishment of its iniquity upon it ,
and the land vomits out its inhabitants .
*
You shall therefore keep My statutes and My judgments ,
and shall not commit any of these abominations ,
either any of your own nation or any stranger who dwells among you
* (
for all these abominations the men of the land have done ,
who were before you ,
and thus the land is defiled ),
*
lest the land vomit you out also when you defile it ,
as it vomited out the nations that were before you .
*
For whoever commits any of these abominations ,
the persons who commit them shall be cut off from among their people .
* "
Therefore you shall keep My ordinance ,
so that you do not commit any of these abominable customs which were committed before you ,
and that you do not defile yourselves by them :
I am the LORD your God ."'
