9For every one who curses his father or his mother shall be put to death; he has cursed his father or his mother, his blood is upon him.

10“If a man commits adultery with the wife of his neighbor, both the adulterer and the adulteress shall be put to death. 11The man who lies with his father’s wife has uncovered his father’s nakedness; both of them shall be put to death, their blood is upon them. 12If a man lies with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall be put to death; they have committed incest, their blood is upon them. 13If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall be put to death, their blood is upon them. 14If a man takes a wife and her mother also, it is wickedness; they shall be burned with fire, both he and they, that there may be no wickedness among you. 15If a man lies with a beast, he shall be put to death; and you shall kill the beast. 16If a woman approaches any beast and lies with it, you shall kill the woman and the beast; they shall be put to death, their blood is upon them.

17“If a man takes his sister, a daughter of his father or a daughter of his mother, and sees her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness, it is a shameful thing, and they shall be cut off in the sight of the children of their people; he has uncovered his sister’s nakedness, he shall bear his iniquity. 18If a man lies with a woman having her sickness, and uncovers her nakedness, he has made naked her fountain, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood; both of them shall be cut off from among their people. 19You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister or of your father’s sister, for that is to make naked one’s near kin; they shall bear their iniquity. 20If a man lies with his uncle’s wife, he has uncovered his uncle’s nakedness; they shall bear their sin, they shall die childless. 21If a man takes his brother’s wife, it is impurity; he has uncovered his brother’s nakedness, they shall be childless.
