They have brought their 13own deathsH1818 upon themselves.
17‘14If there is a manH376 whoH834 takesH3947 his sisterH269, his father’sH1 daughterH1323 orH176 his mother’sH517 daughterH1323, so that he seesH7200 her nakednessH6172 and she seesH7200 his nakednessH6172, it is a disgraceH2617; and they shall be cutH3772 offH3772 in the sightH5869 of the sonsH1121 of their peopleH5971. He has uncoveredH1540 his sister’sH269 nakednessH6172; he bearsH5375 his guiltH5771. 1815If there is a manH376 whoH834 sleepsH7901 with a menstruousH1739 womanH802 and uncoversH1540 her nakednessH6172, he has exposedH6168 her flowH4726, and she has uncoveredH1540 the flowH4726 of her bloodH1818; so bothH8147 of them shall be cutH3772 offH3772 from amongH7130 their peopleH5971.
