Leviticus 19:26-31

26‘You shall not eat anything 1with the blood, nor practice 2divination or soothsaying. 273You shall not round off the side-growth of your heads nor harm the edges of your beard. 28You shall not make any cuts in your 4body for the 5dead nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am the Lord.

29‘6Do not 7profane your daughter by making her a harlot, so that the land will not fall to harlotry and the land become full of lewdness. 30You shall 8keep My sabbaths and 9revere My sanctuary; I am the Lord.

31‘Do not turn to 1011mediums or spiritists; do not seek them out to be defiled by them. I am the Lord your God.
