2 Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, I am the LORD your God.
3 After the doings of the land of Egypt in which ye dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan whither I bring you, shall ye not do: neither shall ye walk in their ordinances.
4 Ye shall perform my judgments, and keep my ordinances, to walk in them; I am the LORD your God.
5 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments: which if a man doeth, he shall live in them: I am the LORD.
6 None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness: I am the LORD.
7 The nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
23 Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion.
24 Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things; for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you:
26 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations; neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you.
27 (For all these abominations have the men of the land done, who were before you, and the land is defiled;)
28 That the land may not vomit you out also, when ye defile it, as it vomited out the nations that were before you.
29 For whoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people.
