Leviticus 20

JuliaSmith(i) 1 And Jehovah will speak to Moses, saying, 2 And to the sons of Israel thou shalt say, A man, a man from the sons of Israel, and from the stranger sojourning in Israel which shall give of his seed to Molech, dying, he shall die: the people of the land. shall stone him with stones. 3 And I will give my face against that man and cut him off from the midst of his people; for he gave from his seed to Molech, in order to defile my holy place and to profane my holy name. 4 And if the people of the land, hiding, shall hide their eyes from that man in his giving his seed to Molech, so as not to put him to death; 5 And I set my face against that man and against his family, and I cut him off, and all committing fornication after him to commit fornication after Molech, from the midst of their people. 6 And the soul which shall turn to necromancers and to wizards, to commit fornication after them, and I gave my face against that soul and I cut him off from the midst of his people. 7 And ye were consecrated and ye were holy: for I Jehovah your God. 8 And ye watched my laws, and ye did them: I Jehovah consecrating you. 9 When a man, a man who shall lightly esteem his father and his mother, dying, he shall die: he lightly esteemed ha father and his mother: his blood is upon him. 10 And a man who shall commit adultery with a man's wife, who shall commit adultery with his friend's wife, dying, he shall die, the adulterer and the adulteress. 11 And a man who shall lie with his father's wife, uncovered his father's nakedness: dying, they shall die: they two their blood is upon them, 12 And a man who shall lie with his daughter-in-law, dying, they shall die, they two: they did profanation; their blood is upon them. 13 And a man who shall lie with a male in a woman's bed, they did abomination: they two, dying, shall die; their blood is upon them. 14 A man who shall take a woman and her mother, it wickedness: in fire they shall be burnt, he and they: and there shall not be wickedness in the midst of you. 15 And a man who shall give his bed with a quadruped, dying, he shall die: and ye shall kill the quadruped. 16 And a woman who shall come near to any quadruped to lie down with it, and didst thou kill the woman and the quadruped; dying, they shall die; their blood is upon them. 17 And a man who shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and he saw her nakedness, and she shall see his nakedness; it is a reproach; and they were cut off in the eyes of the sons of their people; he uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity. 18 And a man who shall lie with a woman being sick, and uncovered her nakedness; he made naked her fountain, and she uncovered the fountain of her blood: and they two were cut off from the midst of their people. 19 And the nakedness of thy mother's sister, and of thy father's sister, thou shalt not uncover; for he made naked his remainder; they shall bear their iniquity. 20 And a man who shall lie with his aunt, uncovered the nakedness of his uncle: they shall bear their sin: they shall die childless. 21 And a man who shall take his brother's wife, it is uncleanness: he uncovered his brother's nakedness: they shall die childless. 22 And ye watched all my laws, and all my judgments, and did them: and the land shall not vomit you forth, which I brought you there to dwell in it 23 And ye shall not walk in the laws of the nations which I sent out from before you: for they did all these things and I shall be disgusted with them. 24 And I said to you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to inherit it, a land flowing with milk and honey: I Jehovah your God, who separated you from the nations. 25 And ye separated between clean cattle to unclean, and between unclean birds and clean: and ye shall not make you souls abhorred by cattle or bird, and by any which shall creep upon the earth which I separated to you for unclean. 26 And, ye were holy to me: for I Jehovah am holy, and I will separate you from the nations to be to me. 27 When a man or a woman shall be among them a necromancer, or a wizard, dying, they shall die: with stone shall they stone them: their blood is upon them.
