18:001

And HaShem spoke unto Moses, saying

18:002

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them: I am HaShem your G-d

18:003

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 statutes

18:004

Mine ordinances shall ye do, and My statutes shall ye keep, to walk therein: I am HaShem your G-d

18:005

Ye shall therefore keep My statutes, and Mine ordinances, which if a man do, he shall live by them: I am HaShem

18:006

None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness. I am HaShem

18:007

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

18:008

The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: it is thy father's nakedness

18:009

The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or the daughter of thy mother, whether born at home, or born abroad, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover

18:010

The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's daughter, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover; for theirs is thine own nakedness

18:011

The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter, begotten of thy father, she is thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness

18:012

Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's sister: she is thy father's near kinswoman

18:013

Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister; for she is thy mother's near kinswoman

18:014

Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy fathers brother, thou shalt not approach to his wife: she is thine aunt

18:015

Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter-in-law: she is thy son' wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness

18:016

Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother's wife: it is thy brother's nakedness

18:017

Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter; thou shalt not take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness: they are near kinswomen; it is lewdness

18:018

And thou shalt not take a woman to her sister, to be a rival to her, to uncover her nakedness, beside the other in her lifetime

18:019

And thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is impure by her uncleanness

18:020

And thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife, to defile thyself with her

18:021

And thou shalt not give any of thy seed to set them apart to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy G-d: I am HaShem

18:022

Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind; it is abomination

18:023

And thou shalt not lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith; neither shall any woman stand before a beast, to lie down thereto; it is perversion

18:024

Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things; for in all these the nations are defiled, which I cast out from before you

18:025

And the land was defiled, therefore I did visit the iniquity thereof upon it, and the land vomited out her inhabitants

18:026

Ye therefore shall keep My statutes and Mine ordinances, and shall not do any of these abominations; neither the home-born, nor the stranger that sojourneth among you-

18:027

for all these abominations have the men of the land done, that were before you, and the land is defiled-

18:028

that the land vomit not you out also, when ye defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you

18:029

For whosoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people

18:030

Therefore shall ye keep My charge, that ye do not any of these abominable customs, which were done before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am HaShem your G-d
