Leviticus 20:2-6

2“TellH559H413 the IsraelitesH1121H3478, ‘AnyH376 IsraeliteH1121H3478 orH4480 foreignerH1616 livingH1481 in IsraelH3478 whoH834 givesH5414 any of his childrenH2233 to MolechH4432 must be put to deathH4191. The peopleH5971 of the landH776 are to stoneH7275 himH68. 3And IH589 will setH5414 My faceH6440 against thatH1931 manH376 and cut him offH3772 fromH7130 his peopleH5971, becauseH3588 by givingH5414 his offspringH2233 to MolechH4432H4616, he has defiledH2930 My sanctuaryH4720 and profanedH2490 My holyH6944 nameH8034.

4And ifH518 the peopleH5971 of the landH776 ever hideH5956 their eyesH5869 and failH1115 to put to deathH4191 the manH376 whoH1931 givesH5414 one of his childrenH2233 to MolechH4432, 5then IH589 will setH7760 My faceH6440 against thatH1931 manH376 and his familyH4940 and cut offH3772 from amongH7130 their peopleH5971 both him and allH3605 who follow himH310 in prostituting themselvesH2181 withH310 MolechH4432.

6WhoeverH5315 turnsH6437 toH413 mediumsH178H413 or spiritistsH3049 to prostitute himselfH2181 with themH310, I will also setH5414 My faceH6440 against that personH5315H1931 and cut him offH3772 fromH7130 his peopleH5971.
