레위기 18장 [RSV]

1. 1 And the LORD said to Moses,

2. 2 "Say to the people of Israel, I am the LORD your God.

3. 3 You shall not do as they do in the land of Egypt, where you dwelt, and you shall not do as they do in the land of Canaan, to which I am bringing you. You shall not walk in their statutes.

4. 4 You shall do my ordinances and keep my statutes and walk in them. I am the LORD your God.

5. 5 You shall therefore keep my statutes and my ordinances, by doing which a man shall live: I am the LORD.

6. 6 "None of you shall approach any one near of kin to him to uncover nakedness. I am the LORD.

7. 7 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father, which is the nakedness of your mother; she is your mother, you shall not uncover her nakedness.

8. 8 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your fathers wife; it is your fathers nakedness.

9. 9 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father or the daughter of your mother, whether born at home or born abroad.

10. 10 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your sons daughter or of your daughters daughter, for their nakedness is your own nakedness.

11. 11 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your fathers wifes daughter, begotten by your father, since she is your sister.

12. 12 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your fathers sister; she is your fathers near kinswoman.

13. 13 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mothers sister, for she is your mothers near kinswoman.

14. 14 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your fathers brother, that is, you shall not approach his wife; she is your aunt.

15. 15 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law; she is your sons wife, you shall not uncover her nakedness.

16. 16 You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brothers wife; she is your brothers nakedness.

17. 17 You shall not uncover the nakedness of a woman and of her daughter, and you shall not take her sons daughter or her daughters daughter to uncover her nakedness; they are your near kinswomen; it is wickedness.

18. 18 And you shall not take a woman as a rival wife to her sister, uncovering her nakedness while her sister is yet alive.

19. 19 "You shall not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness while she is in her menstrual uncleanness.

20. 20 And you shall not lie carnally with your neighbors wife, and defile yourself with her.

21. 21 You shall not give any of your children to devote them by fire to Molech, and so profane the name of your God: I am the LORD.

22. 22 You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination.

23. 23 And you shall not lie with any beast and defile yourself with it, neither shall any woman give herself to a beast to lie with it: it is perversion.

24. 24 "Do not defile yourselves by any of these things, for by all these the nations I am casting out before you defiled themselves;

25. 25 and the land became defiled, so that I punished its iniquity, and the land vomited out its inhabitants.

26. 26 But you shall keep my statutes and my ordinances and do none of these abominations, either the native or the stranger who sojourns among you

27. 27 (for all of these abominations the men of the land did, who were before you, so that the land became defiled);

28. 28 lest the land vomit you out, when you defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.

29. 29 For whoever shall do any of these abominations, the persons that do them shall be cut off from among their people.

30. 30 So keep my charge never to practice any of these abominable customs which were practiced before you, and never to defile yourselves by them: I am the LORD your God."
