CHAPTER XVIII.

The corrupt doings of the heathen forbidden. 6 Un

lawful marriages. 19 Abominable lusts.

ND the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am the LORD your God.

3 b After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not do neither shall ye walk in their ordinances.

4 d Ye shall do my judgments, and keep mine ordinances, to walk therein: I am the LORD your God.

e

5 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments: which if a man do, he shall live in them: I am the LORD.

6 ¶ None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness: I am the LORD.

7 The nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she is thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her naked

ness.

Unlawful marriages.

h The nakedness of thy father's B. C. 1490. wife shalt thou not uncover it is thy father's nakedness.

i

9 The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or daughter of thy mother, whether she be born at home, or born abroad, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover.

10 The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's daughter, even their nakedness thou shalt not uncover for theirs is thine own nakedness.

11 The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter, begotten of thy father, she is thy sister, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

k

12 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's sister she is thy father's near kinswoman.

13 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister: for she is thy mother's near kinswoman.

14 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's brother, thou shalt not approach to his wife: she is thine aunt.

15 m Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter in law: she is thy son's wife; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

16 "Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother's wife it is thy brother's nakedness.

17 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter, neither shalt thou take her son's

daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness; for they are her near kinswomen: it is wick

18 Neither shalt thou take a wife to her sister, P to vex her, to uncover her nakedness, besides the other in her life time.

19 9 Also thou shalt not approach unto a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.

20 Moreover thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbour's wife, to defile thyself with her.
