Leviticus:20
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And Yahweh spoke to Moses ,
saying ,
*
Moreover ,
you will say to the sons of Israel ,
Any man of the sons of Israel ,
or of the strangers who sojourn in Israel ,
that gives of his seed to Molech ;
he will surely be put to death :
the people of the land will stone him with stones .
*
I also will set my face against that man ,
and will cut him off from among his people ;
because he has given of his seed to Molech ,
to defile my sanctuary ,
and to profane my holy name .
*
And if the people at the land do at all hide their eyes from that man ,
when he gives of his seed to Molech ,
and do not put him to death ;
*
then I will set my face against that man ,
and against his family ,
and will cut him off ,
and all those prostituting after him ,
to prostitute with Molech ,
from among their people .
*
And the soul who turns to the spiritists or the wizards ,
to prostitute after them ,
I will even set my face against that soul ,
and will cut him off from among his people .
*
Sanctify yourselves therefore ,
and be (
note :){+}(:
note )
holy ;
for I am Yahweh your {+}
God .
*
And you (
note :){+}(:
note )
will keep my statutes ,
and do them :
I am Yahweh who sanctifies you {+}.
*
For any man who curses his father or his mother will surely be put to death :
he has cursed his father or his mother ;
his blood will be on him .
*
And the man who commits adultery with another man '
s wife--who commits adultery with his fellow man '
s wife--the adulterer and the adulteress will surely be put to death .
*
And the man who has any sex with his father '
s wife has uncovered his father '
s nakedness :
both of them will surely be put to death ;
their blood will be on them .
*
And if a man has any sex with his daughter-in-law ,
both of them will surely be put to death :
they did something perverted ;
their blood will be on them .
*
And if a man has any sex with a man ,
both of them have done something disgusting :
they will surely be put to death ;
their blood will be on them .
*
And if a man has any sex with his wife and her mother ,
it is wickedness :
they will be burnt with fire ,
both he and they ;
that there will be no wickedness among you (
note :){+}(:
note ).
*
And if a man has any sex with an animal ,
he will surely be put to death :
and you (
note :){+}(:
note )
will slay the beast .
*
And if a woman has any sex with an animal ,
you will kill the woman ,
and the animal :
they will surely be put to death ;
their blood will be on them .
*
And if a man will have any sex with his sister ,
his father '
s daughter ,
or his mother '
s daughter ,
it is a shameful thing ;
and they will be cut off in the sight of the sons of their people :
he has uncovered his sister '
s nakedness ;
he will bear his iniquity .
*
And if a man will have sex with a menstruating woman ;
he has made naked her fountain ,
and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood :
and both of them will be cut off from among their people .
*
And you will not have any sex with your mother '
s sister ,
nor of your father '
s sister ;
for he has made naked his near kin :
they will bear their iniquity .
*
And if a man will have any sex with his uncle '
s wife ,
he has uncovered his uncle '
s nakedness :
they will bear their sin ;
they will die childless .
*
And if a man will have any sex with his brother '
s wife ,
it is impurity :
he has uncovered his brother '
s nakedness ;
they will be childless .
*
You (
note :){+}(:
note )
will therefore keep all my statutes ,
and all my ordinances ,
and do them ;
that the land ,
where I am bringing you {+}
to dwell in it ,
does not vomit you {+}
out .
*
And you (
note :){+}(:
note )
will not walk in the customs of the nation ,
which I am casting out before you {+}:
for they did all these things ,
and therefore I abhorred them .
*
But I have said to you (
note :){+}(:
note ),
You {+}
will inherit their land ,
and I will give it to you {+}
to possess it ,
a land flowing with milk and honey :
I am Yahweh your {+}
God ,
who has separated you {+}
from the peoples .
*
You (
note :){+}(:
note )
will therefore make a distinction between the clean beast and the unclean ,
and between the unclean fowl and the clean :
and you {+}
will not make your {+}
souls detestable by beast ,
or by bird ,
or by anything with which the ground teems ,
which I have separated from you {+}
as unclean .
*
And you (
note :){+}(:
note )
will be holy to me :
for I ,
Yahweh ,
am holy ,
and have set you {+}
apart from the peoples ,
that you {+}
should be mine .
*
And a man or a woman among them ,
who is a spiritist or a wizard ,
will surely be put to death :
they will stone them with stones ;
their blood will be on them .
