Leviticus 20:11-19
11And the manH376 that liethH7901 with his father’sH1 wifeH802 hath uncoveredH1540 his father’sH1 nakednessH6172: bothH8147 of them shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191; their bloodH1818 shall be upon them.
12And if a manH376 lieH7901 with his daughter in lawH3618, bothH8147 of them shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191: they have wroughtH6213 confusionH8397; their bloodH1818 shall be upon them.
13If a manH376 also lieH7901 with mankindH2145, as he liethH4904 with a womanH802, bothH8147 of them have committedH6213 an abominationH8441: they shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191; their bloodH1818 shall be upon them.
14And if a manH376 takeH3947 a wifeH802 and her motherH517, it is wickednessH2154: they shall be burntH8313 with fireH784, both he and they; that there be no wickednessH2154 amongH8432 you.
15And if a manH376 lieH7903H5414 with a beastH929, he shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191: and ye shall slayH2026 the beastH929.
16And if a womanH802 approachH7126 unto any beastH929, and lie downH7250 thereto, thou shalt killH2026 the womanH802, and the beastH929: they shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191; their bloodH1818 shall be upon them.
17And if a manH376 shall takeH3947 his sisterH269, his father’sH1 daughterH1323, orH176 his mother’sH517 daughterH1323, and seeH7200 her nakednessH6172, and she seeH7200 his nakednessH6172; it is a wicked thingH2617; and they shall be cut offH3772 in the sightH5869 of their peopleH1121H5971: he hath uncoveredH1540 his sister’sH269 nakednessH6172; he shall bearH5375 his iniquityH5771.
18And if a manH376 shall lieH7901 with a womanH802 having her sicknessH1739, and shall uncoverH1540 her nakednessH6172; he hath discoveredH6168 her fountainH4726, and she hath uncoveredH1540 the fountainH4726 of her bloodH1818: and bothH8147 of them shall be cut offH3772 from amongH7130 their peopleH5971.1
19And thou shalt not uncoverH1540 the nakednessH6172 of thy mother’sH517 sisterH269, nor of thy father’sH1 sisterH269: for he uncoverethH6168 his near kinH7607: they shall bearH5375 their iniquityH5771.2
