Leviticus 20

1And Jehovah spake unto MosesH4872, sayingH559, 2Moreover, thou shalt sayH559 to the children of IsraelH3478, Whosoever he be of the children of IsraelH3478, or of the strangers that sojourn in IsraelH3478, that giveth of his seedH2233 unto MolechH4432; he shall surely be putH5414 to deathH4191: the peopleH5971 of the landH776 shall stoneH68 him with stonesH68. 3I also will setH5414 my faceH6440 against that manH376, and will cutH3772 him off from among his peopleH5971; because he hath givenH5414 of his seedH2233 unto MolechH4432, to defileH2930 my sanctuaryH4720, and to profaneH2490 my holyH6944 nameH8034. 4And if the peopleH5971 of the landH776 do at all hideH5956 their eyesH5869 from that manH376, when he giveth of his seedH2233 unto MolechH4432, and putH5414 him not to deathH4191; 5then I will setH7760 my faceH6440 against that manH376, and against his familyH4940, and will cutH3772 him off, and all that playH2181 the harlot after him, to playH2181 the harlot with MolechH4432, from among their peopleH5971.

6And the soulH5315 that turneth unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto the wizards, to playH2181 the harlot after them, I will even setH5414 my faceH6440 against that soulH5315, and will cutH3772 him off from among his peopleH5971. 7SanctifyH6942 yourselves therefore, and beH1961 ye holyH6918; for I am Jehovah your GodH430. 8And ye shall keepH8104 my statutesH2708, and do them: I am Jehovah who sanctifieth you. 9For every oneH376 that curseth his fatherH1 or his motherH517 shall surely be putH4191 to deathH4191: he hath cursedH7043 his fatherH1 or his motherH517; his bloodH1818 shall be upon him.

10And the manH376 that committeth adulteryH5003 with another man’sH376 wifeH802, even he that committeth adulteryH5003 with his neighbor’sH7453 wifeH802, the adultererH5003 and the adulteress shall surely be putH4191 to deathH4191. 11And the manH376 that lieth with his father’sH1 wifeH802 hath uncoveredH1540 his father’sH1 nakednessH6172: both of them shall surely be putH4191 to deathH4191; their bloodH1818 shall be upon them. 12And if a manH376 lieH7901 with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be putH4191 to deathH4191: they have wrought confusion; their bloodH1818 shall be upon them. 13And if a manH376 lieH7901 with mankind, as with womankind, both of them have committed abominationH8441: they shall surely be putH4191 to deathH4191; their bloodH1818 shall be upon them. 14And if a manH376 takeH3947 a wifeH802 and her motherH517, it is wickednessH2154: they shall beH1961 burnt with fireH784, both he and they; that there beH1961 no wickednessH2154 among you. 15And if a manH376 lie with a beast, he shall surely be putH5414 to deathH4191: and ye shall slayH2026 the beast. 16And if a womanH802 approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou shalt killH2026 the womanH802, and the beast: they shall surely be putH4191 to deathH4191; their bloodH1818 shall be upon them.

17And if a manH376 shall takeH3947 his sisterH269, his father’sH1 daughterH1323, or his mother’sH517 daughterH1323, and seeH7200 her nakednessH6172, and she seeH7200 his nakednessH6172; it is a shameful thing; and they shall be cutH3772 off in the sight of the children of their peopleH5971: he hath uncoveredH1540 his sister’sH269 nakednessH6172; he shall bearH5375 his iniquityH5771. 18And if a manH376 shall lieH7901 with a womanH802 having her sickness, and shall uncoverH1540 her nakednessH6172; he hath madeH3772 nakedH6168 her fountainH4726, and she hath uncoveredH1540 the fountainH4726 of her bloodH1818: and both of them shall be cutH3772 off from among their peopleH5971. 19And thou shalt not uncoverH1540 the nakednessH6172 of thy mother’sH517 sisterH269, nor of thy father’sH1 sisterH269; for he hath made nakedH6168 his near kin: they shall bearH5375 their iniquityH5771. 20And if a manH376 shall lieH7901 with his uncle’sH1730 wife, he hath uncoveredH1540 his uncle’sH1730 nakednessH6172: they shall bearH5375 their sinH2399; they shall dieH4191 childlessH6185. 21And if a manH376 shall takeH3947 his brother’sH251 wifeH802, it is impurityH5079: he hath uncoveredH1540 his brother’sH251 nakednessH6172; they shall beH1961 childlessH6185.

22Ye shall therefore keepH8104 all my statutesH2708, and all mine ordinancesH4941, and do them; that the landH776, whither I bringH935 you to dwellH3427 therein, vomitH6958 you not out. 23And ye shall not walk in the customsH2708 of the nationH1471, which I cast out before you: for they did all these thingsH428, and therefore I abhorred them. 24But I have saidH559 unto you, Ye shall inheritH3423 their landH776, and I will giveH5414 it unto you to possessH3423 it, a landH776 flowingH2100 with milkH2461 and honeyH1706: I am Jehovah your GodH430, who hath separatedH914 you from the peoplesH5971. 25Ye shall therefore make a distinctionH914 between the cleanH2889 beast and the uncleanH2931, and between the uncleanH2931 fowl and the cleanH2889: and ye shall not make your soulsH5315 abominable by beast, or by birdH5775, or by anything wherewith the groundH127 teemeth, which I have separatedH914 from you as uncleanH2931. 26And ye shall beH1961 holyH6918 unto me: for I, Jehovah, am holyH6918, and have setH914 you apartH914 from the peoplesH5971, that ye should beH1961 mine.

27A manH376 also or a womanH802 that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely beH1961 putH4191 to deathH4191: they shall stoneH68 them with stonesH68; their bloodH1818 shall beH1961 upon them.
