Leviticus 20:20–26

²⁰‘^aIf there is a man who lies with his uncle’s wife he has uncovered his uncle’s nakedness; they will bear their sin. They will die childless.

²¹‘^aIf there is a man who takes his brother’s wife, it is ¹abhorrent; he has uncovered his brother’s nakedness. They will be childless.

²²‘You are therefore to keep all My statutes and all My ordinances and do them, so that the land to which I am bringing you to ¹live will not ^aspew you out.

²³‘Moreover, you shall not ¹follow ^athe customs of the nation which I will drive out before you, for they did all these things, and ^btherefore I have abhorred them.

²⁴‘Hence I have said to you, “^aYou are to possess their land, and I Myself will give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey.” I am the Lord your God, who has ^bseparated you from the peoples.

²⁵‘^aYou are therefore to make a distinction between the clean animal and the unclean, and between the unclean bird and the clean; and you shall not make ¹yourselves detestable by animal or by bird or by anything ²that creeps on the ground, which I have separated for you as unclean.

²⁶‘Thus you are to be holy to Me, for I the Lord am holy; and I ^ahave set you apart from the peoples to be Mine.
