engLXXup: Leviticus 18

=> Chapters

 [1] And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,  [2] Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them, I am the Lord your God.  [3] Ye shall not do according to the devices of Egypt, in which ye dwelt: and according to the devices of the land of Canaan, into which I bring you, ye shall not do; and ye shall not walk in their ordinances.  [4] Ye shall observe my judgments, and shall keep my ordinances, and shall walk in them: I am the Lord your God.  [5] So ye shall keep all my ordinances, and all my judgments, and do them; which if a man do, he shall live in them: I am the Lord your God.  [6] No man shall draw nigh to any of his near kindred to uncover their nakedness; I am the Lord.  [7] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother, for she is thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.  [8] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s wife; it is thy father’s nakedness.  [9] The nakedness of thy sister by thy father or by thy mother, born at home or abroad, their nakedness thou shalt not uncover.  [10] The nakedness of thy son’s daughter, or thy daughter’s daughter, their nakedness thou shalt not uncover; because it is thy nakedness.  [11] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of the daughter of thy father’s wife; she is thy sister by the same father: thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.  [12] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s sister, for she is near akin to thy father.  [13] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister, for she is near akin to thy mother.  [14] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s brother, and thou shalt not go in to his wife; for she is thy relation.  [15] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter-in-law, for she is thy son’s wife, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.  [16] Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother’s wife: it is thy brother’s nakedness.  [17] The nakedness of a woman and her daughter shalt thou not uncover; her son’s daughter, and her daughter’s daughter, shalt thou not take, to uncover their nakedness, for they are thy kinswomen: it is impiety.  [18] Thou shalt not take a wife in addition to her sister, as a rival, to uncover her nakedness in opposition to her, while she is yet living.

 [19] And thou shalt not go in to a woman under separation for her uncleanness, to uncover her nakedness.  [20] And thou shalt not lie with thy neighbor’s wife, to defile thyself with her.  [21] And thou shalt not give of thy seed to serve a ruler; and thou shalt not profane my holy name; I am the Lord.  [22] And thou shalt not lie with a man as with a woman, for it is an abomination.  [23] Neither shalt thou lie with any quadruped for copulation, to be polluted with it: neither shall a woman present herself before any quadruped to have connection with it; for it is an abomination.  [24] Do not defile yourselves with any of these things; for in all these things the nations are defiled, which I drive out before you,  [25] and the land is polluted; and I have recompensed their iniquity to them because of it, and the land is aggrieved with them that dwell upon it.  [26] And ye shall keep all my statutes and all my ordinances, and ye shall do none of these abominations; neither the native, nor the stranger that joins himself with you  [27] (for all these abominations the men of the land did who were before you, and the land was defiled),  [28] and lest the land be aggrieved with you in your polluting it, as it was aggrieved with the nations before you.  [29] For whosoever shall do any of these abominations, the souls that do them shall be destroyed from among their people.  [30] And ye shall keep mine ordinances, that ye may not do any of the abominable practices, which have taken place before your time: and ye shall not be polluted in them; for I am the Lord your God.
