The Book of Leviticus 18

18 And Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, 2 “Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, ‘I am Yahweh your God. 3 Like the doings of the land of Egypt, in which you dwelled, you must not do. And like the doings of the land of Canaan which I am bringing you to, you must not do. You must not walk in their statutes. 4 My laws you must do, and my statutes you must keep, so that you walk in them. I am Yahweh your God. 5 And you must keep my statutes and my laws. The person who does them will live because of them. I am Yahweh.

6 Any man must not come near to any relative of his body to uncover nakedness. I am Yahweh. 7 The nakedness of your father and the nakedness of your mother you must not uncover. She is your mother, you must not uncover her nakedness. 8 The nakedness of the wife of your father you must not uncover. It is the nakedness of your father. 9 The nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father or the daughter of your mother, born at home or born outside, you must not uncover their nakedness. 10 The nakedness of your son’s daughter or your daughter’s daughter, you must not uncover their nakedness, for they are your nakedness. 11 The nakedness of your father’s wife’s daughter, the offspring of your father, she is your sister. You must not uncover her nakedness. 12 The nakedness of your father’s sister you must not uncover. She is your father’s relative. 13 The nakedness of your mother’s sister you must not uncover, because she is your mother’s relative. 14 The nakedness of your father’s brother you must not uncover, to his wife you must not come near. She is your aunt. 15 The nakedness of your daughter-in-law you must not uncover. She is your son’s wife. You must not uncover her nakedness. 16 The nakedness of your brother’s wife you must not uncover. That is your brother’s nakedness. 17 The nakedness of a woman and her daughter you must not uncover. Her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter you must not take to uncover her nakedness. They are relatives. It is wickedness. 18 And a woman with her sister you must not take as a rival to uncover her nakedness in addition to her while she is alive.

19 And you must not come near to a woman in the impurity of her uncleanness, to uncover her nakedness. 20 And you must not give your emission of seed to your neighbor’s wife, to become unclean with her. 21 And you must not give any of your children to cause to pass over to Molech. And you must not profane the name of your God. I am Yahweh. 22 And you must not lie with a male as one lies with a woman. That is detestable. 23 And with any animal you must not lie to become unclean by it. And a woman must not stand before the face of an animal to lie down with it. That is perversion.

24 Do not make yourselves unclean in any of these ways, for in all these ways the nations that I will drive out from before your face have become unclean. 25 And the land became unclean, so I punished its sin upon it. And the land vomited out its inhabitants. 26 And you yourselves must keep my statutes and my laws. And you must not do any of these detestable things, neither the native-born nor the sojourner who sojourns among you 27 (for all these detestable things the men of the land have done, those who were before you, and the land has become unclean), 28 so the land does not vomit you out after you have made it unclean, just as it vomited out the nation that was before you. 29 Indeed, anyone who does any of these detestable things, the people who do such things will be cut off from among their people. 30 And you must keep my obligation not to do any of the detestable customs which were done before you, and not make yourselves unclean by them. I am Yahweh your God.’ ”
