Leviticus 20:22-27
22‘You are therefore to keep all My statutes and all My ordinances, and do them, so that the land to which I am bringing you to 1live will not 2vomit you out. 23Furthermore, you shall not 3follow 4the customs of the nation which I am going to drive out before you, because they did all these things; 5therefore I have felt disgust for them. 24So I have said to you, “6You are to take possession of their land, and I Myself will give it to you to possess, a land flowing with milk and honey.” I am the Lord your God, who has 7singled you out from the peoples. 258You are therefore to make a distinction between the clean animal and the unclean, and between the unclean bird and the clean; and you shall not make 9yourselves detestable by animal or by bird, or by anything 10that crawls on the ground, which I have distinguished for you as unclean. 26So you are to be holy to Me, for I the Lord am holy; and I 11have singled you out from the peoples to be Mine.
27‘Now a man or a woman 12who is a medium or a spiritist 13must be put to death. They shall be stoned with stones; they have brought their 14own deaths upon themselves.’”
