Leviticus 18:20–30

20 You are not to have sexual intercourse withA your neighbor’s wife, defiling yourself with her.d

21 “You are not to sacrifice any of your children in the fireB to Molech.e Do not profane the namef of your God; I am the Lord. 22 You are not to sleep with a man as with a woman;g it is detestable.h 23 You are not to have sexual intercourse withC any animal, defiling yourself with it; a woman is not to present herself to an animal to mate with it;i it is a perversion.

24 “Do not defile yourselves by any of these practices, for the nations I am driving out before you have defiled themselves by all these things. 25 The land has become defiled, so I am punishing it for its iniquity, and the land will vomit out its inhabitants.j 26 But you are to keep my statutes and ordinances. You must not commit any of these detestable acts—not the native or the alien who resides among you. 27 For the people who were in the land prior to you have committed all these detestable acts, and the land has become defiled. 28 If you defile the land, it will vomitk you out as it has vomited out the nations that were before you. 29 Any person who does any of these detestable practices is to be cut off from his people. 30 You must keep my instruction to not do any of the detestable customsl that were practiced before you, so that you do not defile yourselves by them; I am the Lord your God.”
