New Living Translation
Leviticus 18:22-30
22“Do not practice homosexuality, having sex with another man as with a woman. It is a detestable sin.
23“A man must not defile himself by having sex with an animal. And a woman must not offer herself to a male animal to have intercourse with it. This is a perverse act.
24“Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, for the people I am driving out before you have defiled themselves in all these ways.
25Because the entire land has become defiled, I am punishing the people who live there. I will cause the land to vomit them out.
26You must obey all my decrees and regulations. You must not commit any of these detestable sins. This applies both to native-born Israelites and to the foreigners living among you.
27“All these detestable activities are practiced by the people of the land where I am taking you, and this is how the land has become defiled.
28So do not defile the land and give it a reason to vomit you out, as it will vomit out the people who live there now.
29Whoever commits any of these detestable sins will be cut off from the community of Israel.
30So obey my instructions, and do not defile yourselves by committing any of these detestable practices that were committed by the people who lived in the land before you. I am the Lord your God.”
