Leviticus 18:24-28

24‘Do not defileH2930 yourselves by anyH3605 of theseH428 thingsH428; for by allH3605 theseH428 1the nationsH1471 whichH834 I am castingH7971 out beforeH4480H6440 you have becomeH2930 defiledH2930.

25For the landH776 has becomeH2930 defiledH2930, 2therefore I have broughtH6485 its 3punishmentH5771 upon it, so the landH776 4has spewedH7006 out its inhabitantsH3427.

26But as for you, you are to keepH8104 My statutesH2708 and My judgmentsH4941 and shall not doH6213 anyH4480H3605 of theseH428 abominationsH8441, neither the nativeH249, nor the alienH1616 who sojournsH1481 amongH8432 you

27(for the menH376 of the landH776 whoH834 have been beforeH6440 you have doneH6213 allH3605 theseH411 abominationsH8441, and the landH776 has becomeH2930 defiledH2930);

28so that the landH776 will not spewH7006 you out, should you defileH2930 it, as it has spewedH7006 out the nationH1471 whichH834 has been beforeH6440 you.
