181 Then the Lord spoke to Moses , saying , 2 "Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ' I am the Lord your God . 3 'You shall not do what is done in the land of Egypt where you lived , nor are you to do what is done in the land of Canaan where e I am bringing you; you shall not walk in their statutes . 4 'You are to perform My judgments and keep My statutes , to live in accord with them; I am the Lord your God . 5 'So you shall keep My statutes and My judgments , by which a man may live if he does them; I am the Lord .
6 'None e of you shall approach any blood relative of his to uncover nakedness ; I am the Lord . 7 ' You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father , that is, the nakedness of your mother . She is your mother ; you are not to uncover her nakedness . 8 ' You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's wife ; it is your father's nakedness . 9 ' The nakedness of your sister , either your father's daughter or your mother's daughter , whether born at home or born outside , their nakedness you shall not uncover . 10 'The nakedness of your son's daughter or your daughter's daughter , their nakedness you shall not uncover ; for their nakedness is yours. 11 'The nakedness of your father's wife's daughter , born to your father , she is your sister , you shall not uncover her nakedness . 12 ' You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's sister ; she is your father's blood relative . 13 'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister , for she is your mother's blood relative . 14 ' You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's brother ; you shall not approach his wife , she is your aunt . 15 ' You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law ; she is your son's wife , you shall not uncover her nakedness . 16 ' You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brother's wife ; it is your brother's nakedness . 17 ' You shall not uncover the nakedness of a woman and of her daughter , nor shall you take her son's daughter or her daughter's daughter , to uncover her nakedness ; they are blood relatives . It is lewdness . 18 'You shall not marry a woman in addition to her sister as a rival while she is alive , to uncover her nakedness .
19 ' Also you shall not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness during her menstrual impurity . 20 ' You shall not have intercourse e with your neighbor's wife , to be defiled with her. 21 'You shall not give any of your offspring to offer them to Molech , nor shall you profane the name of your God ; I am the Lord . 22 ' You shall not lie with a male as one lies with a female ; it is an abomination . 23 ' Also you shall not have intercourse with any animal to be defiled with it, nor shall any woman stand before an animal to mate with it; it is a perversion . 24 'Do not defile yourselves by any of these things ; for by all these the nations which I am casting out before e you have become defiled . 25 'For the land has become defiled , therefore I have brought its punishment upon it, so the land has spewed out its inhabitants . 26 'But as for you, you are to keep My statutes and My judgments and shall not do any e of these abominations , neither the native , nor the alien who sojourns among you 27 (for the men of the land who have been before you have done all these abominations , and the land has become defiled ); 28 so that the land will not spew you out, should you defile it, as it has spewed out the nation which has been before you. 29 'For whoever e does any e of these abominations , those persons who do so shall be cut off from among their people . 30 'Thus you are to keep My charge , that you do not practice any of the abominable customs which have been practiced before you, so as not to defile yourselves with them; I am the Lord your God .'
