肋未纪 18

1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: I am the Lord your God.

3You shall not do according to the custom of the land of Egypt, in which you dwelt: neither shall you act according to the manner of the country of Chanaan, into which I will bring you, nor shall you walk in their ordinances.

4You shall do my judgments, and shall observe my precepts, and shall walk in them. I am the Lord your God.

5Keep my laws and my judgments, which if a man do, he shall live in them. I am the Lord.

6No man shall approach to her that is near of kin to him, to uncover her nakedness. I am the Lord.

7Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother: she is thy mother, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

8Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s wife: for it is the nakedness of thy father.

9Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy sister by father or by mother, whether born at home or abroad.

10Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy son’s daughter, or thy daughter’s daughter: because it is thy own nakedness.

11Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s wife’s daughter, whom she bore to thy father, and who is thy sister.

12Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s sister: because she is the flesh of thy father.

13Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister: because she is thy mother’s flesh.

14Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father’s brother: neither shalt thou approach to his wife, who is joined to thee by affinity.

15Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy daughter in law: because she is thy son’s wife, neither shalt thou discover her shame.

16Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother’s wife: because it is the nakedness of thy brother.

17Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy wife and her daughter. Thou shalt not take her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, to discover her shame: because they are her flesh, and such copulation is incest.

18Thou shalt not take thy wife’s sister for a harlot, to rival her, neither shalt thou discover her nakedness, while she is yet living.

19Thou shalt not approach to a woman having her flowers, neither shalt thou uncover her nakedness.

20Thou shalt not lie with thy neighbour’s wife, nor be defiled with mingling of seed.

21Thou shalt not give any of thy seed to be consecrated to the idol Moloch, nor defile the name of thy God: I am the Lord.

22Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind, because it is an abomination.

23Thou shalt not copulate with any beast, neither shalt thou be defiled with it. A woman shall not lie down to a beast, nor copulate with it: because it is a heinous crime.

24Defile not yourselves with any of these things with which all the nations have been defiled, which I will cast out before you,

25And with which the land is defiled: the abominations of which I will visit, that it may vomit out its inhabitants.

26Keep ye my ordinances and my judgments, and do not any of these abominations: neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you.

27For all these detestable things the inhabitants of the land have done, that; were before you, and have defiled it.

28Beware then, lest in like manner, it vomit you also out, if you do the like things, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.

29Every soul that shall commit any of these abominations, shall perish from the midst of his people.

30Keep my commandments. Do not the things which they have done, that have been before you, and be not defiled therein. I am the Lord your God.

1Locutus est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:

2Loquere filiis Israël, et dices ad eos: Ego Dominus Deus vester:

3juxta consuetudinem terræ Ægypti, in qua habitastis, non facietis: et juxta morem regionis Chanaan, ad quam ego introducturus sum vos, non agetis, nec in legitimis eorum ambulabitis.

4Facietis judicia mea, et præcepta mea servabitis, et ambulabitis in eis. Ego Dominus Deus vester.

5Custodite leges meas atque judicia, quæ faciens homo, vivet in eis. Ego Dominus.

6Omnis homo ad proximam sanguinis sui non accedet, ut revelet turpitudinem ejus. Ego Dominus.

7Turpitudinem patris tui et turpitudinem matris tuæ non discooperies: mater tua est: non revelabis turpitudinem ejus.

8Turpitudinem uxoris patris tui non discooperies: turpitudo enim patris tui est.

9Turpitudinem sororis tuæ ex patre sive ex matre, quæ domi vel foris genita est, non revelabis.

10Turpitudinem filiæ filii tui vel neptis ex filia non revelabis: quia turpitudo tua est.

11Turpitudinem filiæ uxoris patris tui, quam peperit patri tuo, et est soror tua, non revelabis.

12Turpitudinem sororis patris tui non discooperies: quia caro est patris tui.

13Turpitudinem sororis matris tuæ non revelabis, eo quod caro sit matris tuæ.

14Turpitudinem patrui tui non revelabis, nec accedes ad uxorem ejus, quæ tibi affinitate conjungitur.

15Turpitudinem nurus tuæ non revelabis, quia uxor filii tui est: nec discooperies ignominiam ejus.

16Turpitudinem uxoris fratris tui non revelabis: quia turpitudo fratris tui est.

17Turpitudinem uxoris tuæ et filiæ ejus non revelabis. Filiam filii ejus, et filiam filiæ illius non sumes, ut reveles ignominiam ejus: quia caro illius sunt, et talis coitus incestus est.

18Sororem uxoris tuæ in pellicatum illius non accipies, nec revelabis turpitudinem ejus adhuc illa vivente.

19Ad mulierem quæ patitur menstrua non accedes, nec revelabis fœditatem ejus.

20Cum uxore proximi tui non coibis, nec seminis commistione maculaberis.

21De semine tuo non dabis ut consecretur idolo Moloch, nec pollues nomen Dei tui. Ego Dominus.

22Cum masculo non commiscearis coitu femineo, quia abominatio est.

23Cum omni pecore non coibis, nec maculaberis cum eo. Mulier non succumbet jumento, nec miscebitur ei, quia scelus est.

24Nec polluamini in omnibus his quibus contaminatæ sunt universæ gentes, quas ego ejiciam ante conspectum vestrum,

25et quibus polluta est terra: cujus ego scelera visitabo, ut evomat habitatores suos.

26Custodite legitima mea atque judicia, et non faciatis ex omnibus abominationibus istis, tam indigena quam colonus qui peregrinantur apud vos.

27Omnes enim execrationes istas fecerunt accolæ terræ qui fuerunt ante vos, et polluerunt eam.

28Cavete ergo ne et vos similiter evomat, cum paria feceritis, sicut evomuit gentem, quæ fuit ante vos.

29Omnis anima, quæ fecerit de abominationibus his quippiam, peribit de medio populi sui.

30Custodite mandata mea. Nolite facere quæ fecerunt hi qui fuerunt ante vos, et ne polluamini in eis. Ego Dominus Deus vester.

1And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: I am the Lord your God.

3You shall not act according to the custom of the land of Egypt, in which you have lived; nor shall you behave according to the habit of the region of Canaan, into which I will lead you; neither shall you walk in their ordinances.

4You shall accomplish my judgments, and you shall observe my precepts, and you shall walk in them. I am the Lord your God.

5Keep my laws and judgments; when a man does these, he shall live by them. I am the Lord.

6No man shall approach her who is a close blood-relative to him, so as to uncover her nakedness. I am the Lord.

7You shall not expose the nakedness of your father, or the nakedness of your mother. She is your mother; you shall not uncover her nakedness.

8You shall not expose the nakedness of your father’s wife; for it is the nakedness of your father.

9You shall not uncover the nakedness of your sister, whether from father or from mother, whether she was born at home or abroad.

10You shall not uncover the nakedness of your son’s daughter, or your daughter’s daughter; for it is your own nakedness.

11You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s wife’s daughter, whom she bore to your father, and who is your sister.

12You shall not expose the nakedness of your father’s sister; for she is the flesh of your father.

13You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister, because she is the flesh of your mother.

14You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s brother, nor shall you approach his wife, who is joined to you by affinity.

15You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law, for she is your son’s wife; neither shall you expose her dishonor.

16You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brother’s wife; for it is the nakedness of your brother.

17You shall not uncover the nakedness of your wife and her daughter. You shall not take her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, so as to uncover her dishonor; for they are her flesh, and such sexual intercourse is incest.

18You shall not take your wife’s sister as a rival mistress; nor shall you uncover her nakedness, while your wife is still living.

19You shall not approach a woman who is undergoing menstruation, nor shall you uncover her foulness.

20You shall not have sexual intercourse with your neighbor’s wife, nor shall you be defiled by the mingling of seed.

21You shall not give some of your seed to be consecrated to the idol Moloch, nor to pollute the name of your God. I am the Lord.

22You shall not commit sexual acts with a male, in place of sexual intercourse with a female, for this is an abomination.

23You shall not commit sexual acts with any animal, nor shall you be defiled by it. A woman shall not lie down with a beast, nor commit sexual acts with it; for this is wickedness.

24Do not pollute yourselves with any of these things, by which all of the nations, which I will cast out in your sight, have been contaminated

25and by which the land has been polluted. I will visit the wickedness of the land, so that it may vomit out its inhabitants.

26Keep my ordinances and judgments, and do not do any of these abominations: the native born, as well as the settler, who sojourns among you.

27For all these detestable things were done by the inhabitants of the land who were here before you, and they have polluted it.

28Therefore, beware, lest in a similar manner, it may vomit you out as well, if you do these same things, just as it vomited out the people who were before you.

29Every soul who shall commit any of these abominations shall perish from the midst of his people.

30Keep my commandments. Do not be willing to do the things which have been done by those who were before you, and do not be polluted by these things. I am the Lord your God.
