18:17. Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy wife and her daughter. Thou shalt not take her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, to discover her shame: because they are her flesh, and such copulation is incest. 18:18. Thou shalt not take thy wife’s sister for a harlot, to rival her: neither shalt thou discover her nakedness, while she is yet living. 18:19. Thou shalt not approach to a woman having her flowers: neither shalt thou uncover her nakedness. 18:20. Thou shalt not lie with thy neighbour’s wife: nor be defiled with mingling of seed. 18:21. Thou shalt not give any of thy seed to be consecrated to the idol Moloch, nor defile the name of thy God. I am the Lord. 18:22. Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind: because it is an abomination. 18:23. Thou shalt not copulate with any beast: neither shalt thou be defiled with it. A woman shall not lie down to a beast, nor copulate with it: because it is a heinous crime. Because it is a heinous crime.... In Hebrew, this word heinous crime is expressed by the word confusion, signifying the shamefulness and baseness of this abominable sin. 18:24. Defile not yourselves with any of these things with which all the nations have been defiled, which I will cast out before you, 18:25. And with which the land is defiled: the abominations of which I will visit, that it may vomit out its inhabitants. 18:26. Keep ye my ordinances and my judgments: and do not any of these abominations. Neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you. 18:27. For all these detestable things the inhabitants of the land have done, that were before you, and have defiled it. 18:28. Beware then, lest in like manner, it vomit you also out, if you do the like things: as it vomited out the nation that was before you. 18:29. Every soul that shall commit any of these abominations, shall perish from the midst of his people. 18:30. Keep my commandments. Do not the things which they have done, that have been before you: and be not defiled therein. I am the Lord your God. Leviticus Chapter 19 Divers ordinances, partly moral, partly ceremonial or judicial. 19:1. The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 19:2. Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel. And thou shalt say to them: Be ye holy, because I the Lord your God am holy. 19:3. Let every one fear his father, and his mother. Keep my sabbaths. I am the Lord your God. 19:4. Turn ye not to idols: nor make to yourselves molten gods. I am the Lord your God. 19:5. If ye offer in sacrifice a peace offering to the Lord, that he may be favourable: 19:6. You shall eat it on the same day it was offered, and the next day. And whatsoever shall be left until the third day, you shall burn with fire. 19:7. If after two days any man eat thereof, he shall be profane and guilty of impiety: 19:8. And shall bear his iniquity, because he hath defiled the holy thing of the Lord. And that soul shall perish from among his people.
