Leviticus 20:1-9

1And Jehovah spokeH1696 to MosesH4872, sayingH559,

2Thou shalt sayH559 also to the children of IsraelH3478, Every oneH376 of the children of IsraelH3478, or of the strangers who sojourn in IsraelH3478, that giveth of his seedH2233 unto MolechH4432, shall certainlyH4191 be putH5414 to deathH4191: the peopleH5971 of the landH776 shall stoneH68 him with stonesH68.

3And I 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, soH4616 as to makeH5414 my sanctuaryH4720 uncleanH2930, and to profaneH2490 my holyH6944 nameH8034.

4And if the peopleH5971 of the landH776 do any ways hideH5956 their eyesH5869 from that manH376, when he giveth of his seedH2233 unto MolechH4432, that they killH4191 him not,

5then I will setH7760 my faceH6440 against that manH376, and against his familyH4940, and will cutH3772 him off, and all that go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom with MolechH4432, from among their peopleH5971.

6— And the soulH5315 that turneth unto necromancers and unto soothsayers, to go a whoring after them, I will setH5414 my faceH6440 against that soulH5315, and will cutH3772 him off from among his peopleH5971.

7Hallow yourselves therefore, and beH1961 holyH6918; for I am Jehovah your 1GodH430.

8And ye shall observeH8104 my statutesH2708, and do them: I am Jehovah who hallow you.

9Whatever manH376 revileth his fatherH1 and his motherH517 shall certainly be putH4191 to deathH4191: he hath reviled his fatherH1 and his motherH517; his bloodH1818 is upon him.
