Tree of Life Version
Leviticus 18:6-22
6“None of you is to come near anyone who is his close relatives to uncover their nakedness. I am Adonai.
7“You are not to uncover the nakedness of your father or your mother. She is your mother. You should not uncover her nakedness.
8You are not to uncover the nakedness of your father’s wife, for it is your father’s nakedness.
9You are not to uncover the nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father or the daughter of your mother, whether born at home or elsewhere.
10You are not to uncover the nakedness of your son’s daughter, or of your daughter’s daughter, for theirs is your own nakedness.
11You are not to uncover the nakedness of the daughter of your father’s wife, conceived by your father, since she is your sister.
12You are not to uncover the nakedness of your father’s sister, for she is your father’s direct relative.
13You are not to uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister, for she is your mother’s direct relative.
14You are not to uncover the nakedness of your father’s brother by approaching his wife, for she is your aunt.
15You are not to uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law, for she is your son’s wife. You are not to uncover her nakedness.
16You are not to uncover the nakedness of your brother’s wife, because that is your brother’s nakedness.
17You are not to uncover the nakedness of both a woman and her daughter. You are not to take her son’s daughter, or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness, for they are direct relatives. That is wickedness.
18You are not to marry your wife’s sister, to be a rival, uncovering her nakedness, while her sister is still alive.
19“You are not to approach a woman to uncover her nakedness while she is in the impurity of her niddah .
20You are not to lie sexually with your neighbor’s wife and defile yourself with her.
21“You are not to give any of your children in sacrifice to Molech, and defile the Name of your God. I am Adonai.
22“You are not to lie with a man, as with a woman—that is an abomination.
