* And Jehovah spoke to Moses , saying , * Speak unto the children of Israel , and say unto them , I am Jehovah your God . * 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 customs . * Mine ordinances shall ye do and my statutes shall ye observe to walk therein : I am Jehovah your God . * And ye shall observe my statutes and my judgments , by which the man that doeth them shall live : I am Jehovah . * No one shall approach to any that is his near relation , to uncover his nakedness : I am Jehovah . * The nakedness of thy father , and the nakedness of thy mother , shalt thou not uncover : she is thy mother : thou shalt not uncover her nakedness . * The nakedness of thy father 's wife shalt thou not uncover : it is thy father 's nakedness . * The nakedness of thy sister , the daughter of thy father , or daughter of thy mother , born at home , or born abroad -- their nakedness shalt thou not uncover . * The nakedness of thy son 's daughter , or of thy daughter 's daughter -- their nakedness shalt thou not uncover ; for theirs is thy nakedness . * The nakedness of thy father 's wife 's daughter , begotten of thy father : she is thy sister : thou shalt not uncover her nakedness . * The nakedness of thy father 's sister shalt thou not uncover : she is thy father 's near relation . * The nakedness of thy mother 's sister shalt thou not uncover ; for she is thy mother 's near relation . * The nakedness of thy father 's brother shalt thou not uncover ; thou shalt not approach his wife : she is thine aunt . * The nakedness of thy daughter-in-law shalt thou not uncover : she is thy son 's wife ; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness . * The nakedness of thy brother 's wife shalt thou not uncover : it is thy brother 's nakedness . * The nakedness of a woman and her daughter shalt thou not uncover ; thou shalt not take her son 's daughter , nor her daughter 's daughter , to uncover her nakedness : they are her near relations : it is wickedness . * And thou shalt not take a wife to her sister , to vex her , to uncover her nakedness beside her , during her life . * And thou shalt not approach a woman in the separation of her uncleanness to uncover her nakedness . * And thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour 's wife , to become unclean with her . * And thou shalt not give of thy seed to let them pass through [the fire ] to Molech , neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God : I am Jehovah . * And thou shalt not lie with mankind as one lieth with a woman : it is an abomination . * And thou shalt lie with no beast to become unclean therewith ; and a woman shall not stand before a beast to lie down with it : it is confusion . * Make not yourselves unclean in any of these things ; for in all these have the nations which I am casting out before you made themselves unclean . * And the land hath become unclean ; and I visit the iniquity thereof upon it , and the land vomiteth out its inhabitants . * But ye shall observe my statutes and my judgments , and shall not commit any of all these abominations : the home-born , and the stranger that sojourneth among you ; * (for all these abominations have the men of the land done , who were before you , and the land hath been made unclean ); * that the land vomit you not out , when ye make it unclean , as it vomited out the nation that was before you . * For whoever committeth any of these abominations ,... the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people . * And ye shall observe my charge , that ye commit not [any ] of the abominable customs which were committed before you ; and ye shall not make yourselves unclean therein : I am Jehovah your God .
