[1] Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, [2] “Moreover, you shall tell the children of Israel, ‘Anyone of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners in Israel, who gives any of his offspring§ to Molech shall surely be put to death. The people of the land shall stone that person with stones. [3] I also will set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people, because he has given of his offspring to Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name. [4] If the people of the land all hide their eyes from that person when he gives of his offspring to Molech, and don’t put him to death, [5] then I will set my face against that man and against his family, and will cut him off, and all who play the prostitute after him to play the prostitute with Molech, from among their people. [6] “ ‘The person that turns to those who are mediums and wizards, to play the prostitute after them, I will even set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people. [7] “ ‘Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am Yahweh your God. [8] You shall keep my statutes, and do them. I am Yahweh who sanctifies you. [9] “ ‘For everyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death. He has cursed his father or his mother. His blood shall be upon himself. [10] “ ‘The man who commits adultery with another man’s wife, even he who commits adultery with his neighbor’s wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death. [11] “ ‘The man who lies with his father’s wife has uncovered his father’s nakedness. Both of them shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon themselves. [12] “ ‘If a man lies with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death. They have committed a perversion. Their blood shall be upon themselves. [13] “ ‘If a man lies with a male, as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon themselves. [14] “ ‘If a man takes a wife and her mother, it is wickedness. They shall be burned with fire, both he and they, that there may be no wickedness among you. [15] “ ‘If a man lies with an animal, he shall surely be put to death; and you shall kill the animal. [16] “ ‘If a woman approaches any animal and lies with it, you shall kill the woman and the animal. They shall surely be put to death. Their blood shall be upon them. [17] “ ‘If a man takes his sister—his father’s daughter, or his mother’s daughter—and sees her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness, it is a shameful thing. They shall be cut off in the sight of the children of their people. He has uncovered his sister’s nakedness. He shall bear his iniquity. [18] “ ‘If a man lies with a woman having her monthly period, and uncovers her nakedness, he has made her fountain naked, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood. Both of them shall be cut off from among their people. [19] “ ‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister, nor of your father’s sister, for he has made his close relative naked. They shall bear their iniquity. [20] If a man lies with his uncle’s wife, he has uncovered his uncle’s nakedness. They shall bear their sin. They shall die childless. [21] “ ‘If a man takes his brother’s wife, it is an impurity. He has uncovered his brother’s nakedness. They shall be childless. [22] “ ‘You shall therefore keep all my statutes and all my ordinances, and do them, that the land where I am bringing you to dwell may not vomit you out. [23] You shall not walk in the customs of the nation which I am casting out before you; for they did all these things, and therefore I abhorred them. [24] But I have said to you, “You shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey.” I am Yahweh your God, who has separated you from the peoples. [25] “ ‘You shall therefore make a distinction between the clean animal and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean. You shall not make yourselves abominable by animal, or by bird, or by anything with which the ground teems, which I have separated from you as unclean for you. [26] You shall be holy to me, for I, Yahweh, am holy, and have set you apart from the peoples, that you should be mine. [27] “ ‘A man or a woman that is a medium or is a wizard shall surely be put to death. They shall be stoned with stones. Their blood shall be upon themselves.’ ”

[1] And the LordH3068 spakeH1696(PielImpf) unto Moses,H4872 saying,H559(QalInf) [2] Again, thou shalt sayH559(QalImpf) to the childrenH1121 of Israel,H3478 WhosoeverH376 [he be] of the childrenH1121 of Israel,H3478 or of the strangersH1616 that sojournH1481(QalActPtc) in Israel,H3478 that givethH5414(QalImpf) [any] of his seedH2233 unto Molech;H4432 he shall surelyH4191(QalInf) be put to death:H4191(HophImpf) the peopleH5971 of the landH776 shall stoneH7275(QalImpf) him with stones.H68 [3] And I will setH5414(QalImpf) my faceH6440 against that man,H376 and will cut him offH3772(HiphPerf) from amongH7130 his people;H5971 because he hath givenH5414(QalPerf) of his seedH2233 unto Molech,H4432 to defileH2930(PielInf) my sanctuary,H4720 and to profaneH2490(PielInf) my holyH6944 name.H8034 [4] And if the peopleH5971 of the landH776 do any waysH5956(HiphInf) hideH5956(HiphImpf) their eyesH5869 from the man,H376 when he givethH5414(QalInf) of his seedH2233 unto Molech,H4432 and killH4191(HiphInf) him not:H1115 [5] Then I will setH7760(QalPerf) my faceH6440 against that man,H376 and against his family,H4940 and will cut him off,H3772(HiphPerf) and all that go a whoringH2181(QalActPtc) afterH310 him, to commit whoredomH2181(QalInf) with Molech,H4432 from amongH7130 their people.H5971 [6] And the soulH5315 that turnethH6437(QalImpf) afterH413 such as have familiar spirits,H178 and afterH310 wizards,H3049 to go a whoringH2181(QalInf) afterH310 them, I will even setH5414(QalPerf) my faceH6440 against that soul,H5315 and will cut him offH3772(HiphPerf) from amongH7130 his people.H5971 [7] SanctifyH6942(HithPerf) yourselves therefore, and be ye holy:H6918 for I [am] the LordH3068 your God.H430 [8] And ye shall keepH8104(QalPerf) my statutes,H2708 and doH6213(QalPerf) them: I [am] the LordH3068 which sanctifyH6942(PielPtc) you. [9] For everyH376 oneH376 that cursethH7043(PielImpf) his fatherH1 or his motherH517 shall be surelyH4191(QalInf) put to death:H4191(HophImpf) he hath cursedH7043(PielPerf) his fatherH1 or his mother;H517 his bloodH1818 [shall be] upon him. [10] And the manH376 that committeth adulteryH5003(QalImpf) with [another] man’sH376 wife,H802 [even he] that committeth adulteryH5003(QalImpf) with his neighbour’sH7453 wife,H802 the adultererH5003(QalActPtc) and the adulteressH5003(QalActPtc) shall surelyH4191(QalInf) be put to death.H4191(HophImpf) [11] And the manH376 that liethH7901(QalImpf) with his father’sH1 wifeH802 hath uncoveredH1540(PielPerf) his father’sH1 nakedness:H6172 bothH8147 of them shall surelyH4191(QalInf) be put to death;H4191(HophImpf) their bloodH1818 [shall be] upon them. [12] And if a manH376 lieH7901(QalImpf) with his daughter in law,H3618 bothH8147 of them shall surelyH4191(QalInf) be put to death:H4191(HophImpf) they have wroughtH6213(QalPerf) confusion;H8397 their bloodH1818 [shall be] upon them. [13] If a manH376 also lieH7901(QalImpf) with mankind,H2145 as he liethH4904 with a woman,H802 bothH8147 of them have committedH6213(QalPerf) an abomination:H8441 they shall surelyH4191(QalInf) be put to death;H4191(HophImpf) their bloodH1818 [shall be] upon them. [14] And if a manH376 takeH3947(QalImpf) a wifeH802 and her mother,H517 it [is] wickedness:H2154 they shall be burntH8313(QalImpf) with fire,H784 both he and they; that there be no wickednessH2154 amongH8432 you. [15] And if a manH376 lieH5414(QalImpf) with a beast,H929 he shall surelyH4191(QalInf) be put to death:H4191(HophImpf) and ye shall slayH2026(QalImpf) the beast.H929 [16] And if a womanH802 approachH7126(QalImpf) unto any beast,H929 and lie downH7250(QalInf) thereto, thou shalt killH2026(QalPerf) the woman,H802 and the beast:H929 they shall surelyH4191(QalInf) be put to death;H4191(HophImpf) their bloodH1818 [shall be] upon them. [17] And if a manH376 shall takeH3947(QalImpf) his sister,H269 his father’sH1 daughter,H1323 orH176 his mother’sH517 daughter,H1323 and seeH7200(QalPerf) her nakedness,H6172 and she seeH7200(QalImpf) his nakedness;H6172 it [is] a wicked thing;H2617 and they shall be cut offH3772(NiphPerf) in the sightH5869 of their people:H5971 he hath uncoveredH1540(PielPerf) his sister’sH269 nakedness;H6172 he shall bearH5375(QalImpf) his iniquity.H5771 [18] And if a manH376 shall lieH7901(QalImpf) with a womanH802 having her sickness,H1739 and shall uncoverH1540(PielPerf) her nakedness;H6172 he hath discoveredH6168(HiphPerf) her fountain,H4726 and she hath uncoveredH1540(PielPerf) the fountainH4726 of her blood:H1818 and bothH8147 of them shall be cut offH3772(NiphPerf) from amongH7130 their people.H5971 [19] And thou shalt not uncoverH1540(PielImpf) the nakednessH6172 of thy mother’sH517 sister,H269 nor of thy father’sH1 sister:H269 for he uncoverethH6168(HiphPerf) his near kin:H7607 they shall bearH5375(QalImpf) their iniquity.H5771 [20] And if a manH376 shall lieH7901(QalImpf) with his uncle’s wife,H1733 he hath uncoveredH1540(PielPerf) his uncle’sH1730 nakedness:H6172 they shall bearH5375(QalImpf) their sin;H2399 they shall dieH4191(QalImpf) childless.H6185 [21] And if a manH376 shall takeH3947(QalImpf) his brother’sH251 wife,H802 it [is] an unclean thing:H5079 he hath uncoveredH1540(PielPerf) his brother’sH251 nakedness;H6172 they shall be childless.H6185 [22] Ye shall therefore keepH8104(QalPerf) all my statutes,H2708 and all my judgments,H4941 and doH6213(QalPerf) them: that the land,H776 whither I bringH935(HiphPtc) you to dwellH3427(QalInf) therein, spue you not out.H6958(HiphImpf) [23] And ye shall not walkH3212(QalImpf) in the mannersH2708 of the nation,H1471 which I cast outH7971(PielPtc) beforeH6440 you: for they committedH6213(QalPerf) all these things, and therefore I abhorredH6973(QalImpf) them. [24] But I have saidH559(QalImpf) unto you, Ye shall inheritH3423(QalImpf) their land,H127 and I will giveH5414(QalImpf) it unto you to possessH3423(QalInf) it, a landH776 that flowethH2100(QalActPtc) with milkH2461 and honey:H1706 I [am] the LordH3068 your God,H430 which have separatedH914(HiphPerf) you from [other] people.H5971 [25] Ye shall therefore put differenceH914(HiphPerf) between cleanH2889 beastsH929 and unclean,H2931 and between uncleanH2931 fowlsH5775 and clean:H2889 and ye shall not make your soulsH5315 abominableH8262(PielImpf) by beast,H929 or by fowl,H5775 or by any manner of living thing that creepethH7430(QalImpf) on the ground,H127 which I have separatedH914(HiphPerf) from you as unclean.H2930(PielInf) [26] And ye shall be holyH6918 unto me: for I the LordH3068 [am] holy,H6918 and have severedH914(HiphImpf) you from [other] people,H5971 that ye should be mine. [27] A manH376 also or womanH802 that hathH3588 a familiar spirit,H178 or that is a wizard,H3049 shall surelyH4191(QalInf) be put to death:H4191(HophImpf) they shall stoneH7275(QalImpf) them with stones:H68 their bloodH1818 [shall be] upon them.
