Leviticus 18:19–30

¹⁹“You shall not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness while she is in her menstrual uncleanness.^{* 20}You shall not have sexual relations with your neighbor’s wife and defile yourself with her.^{* 21}You shall not give any of your offspring to sacrifice them^h to Molech and so profane the name of your God: I am the Lord.^{* 22}You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination.^{* 23}You shall not have sexual relations with any animal and defile yourself with it, nor shall any woman give herself to an animal to have sexual relations with it; it is perversion.^*

²⁴“Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, for by all these practices the nations I am casting out before you have defiled themselves.^{* 25}Thus the land became defiled, and I punished it for its iniquity, and the land vomited out its inhabitants.^{* 26}But you shall keep my statutes and my ordinances and commit none of these abominations, either the native-born or the alien who resides among you ²⁷(for the inhabitants of the land, who were before you, committed all of these abominations, and the land became defiled); ²⁸otherwise the land will vomit you out for defiling it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you. ²⁹For whoever commits any of these abominations shall be cut off from their people. ³⁰So keep my charge not to commit any of these abominations that were done before you and not to defile yourselves by them: I am the Lord your God.”^*
