1And LORD JEHOVAH spoke with Moshe and said to him: 2“Speak with the children of Israel and say to them: 'I AM LORD JEHOVAH your God. 3According to the works of the land of Egypt in which you dwelt, you will not do, and you shall not do according to the works of the land of Canaan where I have brought you and you shall not walk in their laws. 4But do my judgments and keep my commands and walk in them. I AM LORD JEHOVAH your God. 5Keep my commands and my judgments, for a son of man who does them lives in them; I AM LORD JEHOVAH.

6Each man with anyone near his flesh you shall not touch to uncover nakedness; I AM LORD JEHOVAH. 7Do not reveal the nakedness of your father or the nakedness of your mother; she is your mother; do not reveal her nakedness. 8Do not expose the nakedness of the wife of your father, for it is the nakedness of your father. 9The nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father or the daughter of your mother who is the child of your father or of another man, do not reveal her nakedness. 10The nakedness of the daughter of your son or of the daughter of your daughter, do not expose their nakedness because it is your nakedness. 11The nakedness of the daughter of the wife of your father who is the child of your father, she is your sister; do not reveal her nakedness. 12Do not uncover the nakedness of the sister of your father, for she is the close relative of your father. 13Do not expose the nakedness of the sister of your mother, because she is the close relative of your mother. 14Do not reveal the nakedness of the wife of your father's brother and do not come near his wife, because she is the wife of your father's brother; do not reveal her nakedness. 15Do not reveal the nakedness of your daughter in law, because she is the wife of your son; do not reveal her nakedness. 16Do not expose the nakedness of the wife of your brother, for her nakedness is your brother’s. 17The nakedness of a woman and her daughter do not expose, nor of the daughter of her son, nor of the daughter of her daughter; do not come near to expose their nakedness; they are close relatives and it is evil. 18And do not take a woman with her sister and grieve her and expose her nakedness upon her in her life.

19And a woman in menstruation of her uncleanness shall not present herself to uncover her nakedness. 20And do not expel the seed of your copulation into the wife of your neighbor and be defiled with her. 21And do not expel from your seed to impregnate a female stranger and do not pollute the name of your God; I AM LORD JEHOVAH. 22And do not lie down with a male in the lying down of a woman, because it is defiled. 23And do not expel your seed into any beast and be defiled with it, and a woman shall not stand before a beast that she be mounted by it, because that is an abomination.

24Do not be defiled in any of these things, because in these things all the nations are defiled which I drove out from before you: 25And the land was defiled and I repaid its evil upon it and I have emptied the land of its inhabitants. 26Keep my covenants and my judgments and you shall not do one of all of these sins, neither you, nor those who are converted to me who dwell among you: 27Because the men of the place that were before you did all of these sins and the land was defiled. 28Do not defile the land, that it will not empty you out as I emptied out the people that were from before you. 29Because everyone who does one of all of these sins, the souls that do will be destroyed from within their people. 30Keep my observances and you shall not practice according to one thing from the laws of sins that they who were before you had done, and you shall not be defiled in them; I AM LORD JEHOVAH your God.'"
