| 1. | And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying, |
| 2. | `Speak unto the sons of Israel, and thou hast said unto them, I `am' Jehovah your God; |
| 3. | according to the work of the land of Egypt in which ye have dwelt ye do not, and according to the work of the land of Canaan whither I am bringing you in, ye do not, and in their statutes ye walk not. |
| 4. | `My judgments ye do, and My statutes ye keep, to walk in them; I `am' Jehovah your God; |
| 5. | and ye have kept My statutes and My judgments which man doth and liveth in them; I `am' Jehovah. |
| 6. | `None of you unto any relation of his flesh doth draw near to uncover nakedness; I `am' Jehovah. |
| 7. | `The nakedness of thy father and the nakedness of thy mother thou dost not uncover, she `is' thy mother; thou dost not uncover her nakedness. |
| 8. | `The nakedness of the wife of thy father thou dost not uncover; it `is' the nakedness of thy father. |
| 9. | `The nakedness of thy sister, daughter of thy father, or daughter of thy mother, born at home or born without; thou dost not uncover their nakedness. |
| 10. | `The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's daughter: thou dost not uncover their nakedness; for theirs `is' thy nakedness. |
| 11. | `The nakedness of a daughter of thy father's wife, begotten of thy father, she `is' thy sister; thou dost not uncover her nakedness. |
| 12. | `The nakedness of a sister of thy father thou dost not uncover; she `is' a relation of thy father. |
| 13. | `The nakedness of thy mother's sister thou dost not uncover; for she `is' thy mother's relation. |
| 14. | `The nakedness of thy father's brother thou dost not uncover; unto his wife thou dost not draw near; she `is' thine aunt. |
| 15. | `The nakedness of thy daughter-in-law thou dost not uncover; she `is' thy son's wife; thou dost not uncover her nakedness. |
| 16. | `The nakedness of thy brother's wife thou dost not uncover; it `is' thy brother's nakedness. |
| 17. | `The nakedness of a woman and her daughter thou dost not uncover; her son's daughter, and her daughter's daughter thou dost not take to uncover her nakedness; they `are' her relations; it `is' wickedness. |
| 18. | `And a woman unto another thou dost not take, to be an adversary, to uncover her nakedness beside her, in her life. |
| 19. | `And unto a woman in the separation of her uncleanness thou dost not draw near to uncover her nakedness. |
| 20. | `And unto the wife of thy fellow thou dost not give thy seed of copulation, for uncleanness with her. |
| 21. | `And of thy seed thou dost not give to pass over to the Molech; nor dost thou pollute the name of thy God; I `am' Jehovah. |
| 22. | `And with a male thou dost not lie as one lieth with a woman; abomination it `is'. |
| 23. | `And with any beast thou dost not give thy copulation, for uncleanness with it; and a woman doth not stand before a beast to lie down with it; confusion it `is'. |
| 24. | `Ye are not defiled with all these, for with all these have the nations been defiled which I am sending away from before you; |
| 25. | and the land is defiled, and I charge its iniquity upon it, and the land vomiteth out its inhabitants: |
| 26. | and ye -- ye have kept My statutes and My judgments, and do not `any' of all these abominations, the native and the sojourner who is sojourning in your midst, |
| 27. | (for all these abominations have the men of the land done who `are' before you, and the land is defiled), |
| 28. | and the land doth not vomit you out in your defiling it, as it hath vomited out the nation which `is' before you; |
| 29. | for any one who doth `any' of all these abominations -- even the persons who are doing `so', have been cut off from the midst of their people; |
| 30. | and ye have kept My charge, so as not to do `any' of the abominable statutes which have been done before you, and ye do not defile yourselves with them; I `am' Jehovah your God.' |
