Leviticus 20:11-19
11If a manH376 liesH7901 withH853 his father’sH1 wifeH802, he has uncoveredH1540 his father’sH1 nakednessH6172. BothH8147 must surely be put to deathH4191; their bloodH1818 is upon them.
12If a manH376 liesH7901 withH853 his daughter-in-lawH3618, bothH8147 must surely be put to deathH4191. They have actedH6213 perverselyH8397; their bloodH1818 is upon them.
13If a manH376 liesH7901 withH853 a manH2145H4904 as with a womanH802, they have bothH8147 committedH6213 an abominationH8441. They must surely be put to deathH4191; their bloodH1818 is upon them.
14If a manH376 marriesH3947 both a womanH802 and her motherH517, itH1931 is depravedH2154. Both heH853 and theyH853 must be burnedH8313 in the fireH784, so that there will beH1961 noH3808 depravityH2154 among youH8432.
15If a manH376 liesH5414 carnallyH7903 with an animalH929, he must be put to deathH4191. AndH853 you are also to killH2026 the animalH929.
16If a womanH802 approachesH7126H413 anyH3605 animalH929 to mateH7250 with itH854, you must killH2026 bothH853 the womanH802 andH853 the animalH929. They must surely be put to deathH4191; their bloodH1818 is upon them.
17If a manH376 marriesH3947 his sisterH269, whether the daughterH1323 of his fatherH1 orH176 of his motherH517, and they have sexual relationsH7200H853H6172H1931,1 itH1931 is a disgraceH2617. They must be cut offH3772 in the sightH5869 ofH1121 their peopleH5971. He has uncoveredH1540 the nakednessH6172 of his sisterH269; he shall bearH5375 his iniquityH5771.
18If a manH376 liesH7901 withH853 a menstruatingH1739 womanH802 and has sexual relations with herH1540,2 he has exposedH6168 the source of her flowH4726, and sheH1931 has uncoveredH1540 the sourceH4726 of her bloodH1818. BothH8147 of them must be cut offH3772 from amongH7130 their peopleH5971.
19You must notH3808 have sexual relations withH6172H1540 the sisterH269 of your motherH517 or your fatherH1, forH3588 it is exposingH6168 one’s own kinH7607; both shall bearH5375 their iniquityH5771.
