1And the LORD talked with Moses saying:
2speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am the LORD your God.
3Wherefore after the doings of the land of Egypt wherein ye dwelt, see that ye do not: neither after the doings of the land of Canaan, whether I will bring you, neither walk ye in their ordinances,
4but do after my judgments, and keep mine ordinances, to walk therein: for I am the LORD your God.
5Keep therefore mine ordinances, and my judgments which if a man do he shall live thereby: for I am the LORD.
6See that ye go to none of your nighest kindred for to uncover their secrets, for I am the LORD.
7The secrets of thy father and thy mother, see thou unhele not: she is thy mother, therefore shalt thou not discover her secrets.
8The secrets of thy father's wife shalt thou not discover, for they are thy father's secrets.
9Thou shalt not discover the privity of thy sister, the daughter of thy father or of thy mother: whether she be born at home or without.
10Thou shalt not discover the secrets of thy son's daughter or thy daughter's daughter, for that is thine own privity:
11Thou shalt not discover the secrets of thy father's wife's daughter, which she bare to thy father, for she is thy sister: thou shalt therefore not discover her secrets.
12Thou shalt not uncover the secrets of thy father's sister, for she is thy father's next kin.(kinswoman.)
13Thou shalt not discover the secrets of thy mother's sister, for she is thy mother's next kin.(kinswoman.)
14Thou shalt not open(uncover) the secrets of thy father's brother: that is thou shalt not go in to his wife, for she is thine aunt.
15Thou shalt not discover the secrets of thy daughter-in-law she is thy son's wife: therefore uncover not her secrets.
16Thou shalt not unhele the secrets of thy brother's wife, for that is thy brother's privity.
17Thou shalt not discover the privates(privities) of the wife and her daughter also, neither shalt thou take her son's daughter or her daughter's daughter to uncover their secrets, they are her next kin, it were therefore wickedness.
18Thou shalt not take a wife and her sister thereto, to vex her that thou wouldest open her secrets as long as she liveth.
19Thou shalt not go unto a woman to open her secrets,(uncover her privity) as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.
20Thou shalt not lie with thy neighbour's wife, to defile thyself with her.
21Thou shalt not give of thy seed to offer it unto Moloch, that thou defile not the name of thy God, for I am the LORD.
22Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind, for that is abomination.
23Thou shalt lie with no manner of beast to defile thyself therewith, neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto, for that is abomination.
24Defile not your selves in any of these things, for with all these things are these nations defiled which I cast out before you:
25and the land is defiled, and I will visit the wickedness thereof upon it. And the land shall spew out her inhabiters.
26Keep ye therefore mine ordinances and judgements, and see that ye commit none of these abominations: neither any of you nor any stranger that sojourneth among you
27(for all these abominations have the men of the land done which were there before you, and the land is defiled)
28lest that the land spew you out when ye have defiled it, as it spewed out the nations that were there before you.
29For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, the same souls that commit them shall perish from among their people.
30Therefore see that ye keep mine ordinances, that ye commit none of these abominable customs which were committed before you: that ye defile not your selves therewith for I am the LORD your God.
