AND the LORD spake unto
Moses, saying,
2 Again, thou shalt say to
the children of Israel, Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the
strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth any of his seed unto Molech; he
shall surely be put to death: the people
of the land shall stone him with stones.
3 And I will set my face
against that man, and will cut him off from among his people; because he hath
given of his seed unto Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy
name.
4 And if the people of the
land do any ways hide their eyes from the man, when he giveth of his seed
unto Molech, and kill him not;
5 Then I will set my face
against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that
go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom with Molech, from among their
people.
6 And the soul that turneth
after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after
them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from
among his people.
7 Sanctify yourselves
therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the
LORD your God.
8 And ye shall keep my
statutes, and do them: I am the LORD
which sanctify you.
9 For every one that
curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother;
his blood shall be upon him.
10 And the man that
committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery
with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be
put to death.
11 And the man that lieth
with his father's wife hath uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death;
their blood shall be upon them.
12 And if a man lie with
his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood
shall be upon them.
13 If a man also lie with
mankind, as he lieth with woman, both of them have committed an
abomination: they shall surely be put
to death; their blood shall be upon them.
14 And if a man take a wife
and her mother, it is wickedness:
they shall be burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no
wickedness among you.
15 And if a man lie with a
beast, he shall surely be put to death; and ye shall slay the beast.
16 And if a woman approach
unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou shalt kill the woman, and the
beast: they shall surely be put to
death; their blood shall be upon them.
17 And if a man shall take
his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her
nakedness, and she see his nakedness; it is a wicked thing; and they shall be
cut off in the sight of their people:
he hath uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
18 And if a man shall lie
with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness; he hath
discovered her fountain, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her
blood: and both of them shall be cut
off from among their people.
19 And thou shalt not
uncover the nakedness of they mother's sister, nor of thy father's sister;
for he uncovereth his near kin: they
shall bear their iniquity.
20 And if a man shall lie
with his uncle's wife, he hath uncovered his uncle's nakedness; they shall
bear their sin; they shall die childless.
21 And if a man shall take
his brother's wife, it is an unclean thing; he hath uncovered his brother's
nakedness; they shall be childless.
22 Ye shall therefore keep
all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spew you
not out.
23 And ye shall not walk in
the manners of the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all these things, and
therefore I abhorred them.
24 But I have said unto
you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it,
a land that floweth with milk and honey:
I am the LORD your God, which have separated you from other people.
25 Ye shall therefore put
difference between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean fowls and
clean: and ye shall not make your
souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that
creepeth on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.
26 And ye shall be holy
unto me: for I the LORD am holy, and
have severed you from other people, that ye should be mine.
27 A man also or woman that
hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to
death: they shall stone them with
stones; their blood shall be upon them.
