Leviticus 20

DOUAI-RHEIMS	Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
1 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying:	1 The LORD said to Moses,
2 Thus shalt thou say to the children of Israel: If any man of the children of Israel, or of the strangers, that dwell in Israel, give of his seed to the idol Moloch, dying let him die: the people of the land shall stone him.	2 "Say to the people of Israel, Any man of the people of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, who gives any of his children to Molech shall be put to death; the people of the land shall stone him with stones.
3 And I will set my face against him: and I will cut him off from the midst of his people, because he hath given of his seed to Moloch, and hath defiled my sanctuary, and profaned my holy name.	3 I myself will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people, because he has given one of his children to Molech, defiling my sanctuary and profaning my holy name.
4 And if the people of the land neglecting, and as it were little regarding my commandment, let alone the man that hath given of his seed to Moloch, and will not kill him:	4 And if the people of the land do at all hide their eyes from that man, when he gives one of his children to Molech, and do not put him to death,
5 I will set my face against that man, and his kindred, and will cut off both him and all that consented with him, to commit fornication with Moloch, out of the midst of their people.	5 then I will set my face against that man and against his family, and will cut them off from among their people, him and all who follow him in playing the harlot after Molech.
6 The soul that shall go aside after magicians, and soothsayers, and shall commit fornication with them, I will set my face against that soul, and destroy it out of the midst of its people.	6 "If a person turns to mediums and wizards, playing the harlot after them, I will set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people.
7 Sanctify yourselves, and be ye holy because I am the Lord your God.	7 Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am the LORD your God.
8 Keep my precepts, and do them. I am the Lord that sanctify you.	8 Keep my statutes, and do them; I am the LORD who sanctify you.
9 He that curseth his father, or mother, dying let him die: he hath cursed his father, and mother, let his blood be upon him.	9 For 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 any man commit adultery with the wife of another, and defile his neighbour's wife, let then: be put to death, both the adulterer and the adulteress.	10 "If a man commits adultery with the wife of his neighbor, both the adulterer and the adulteress shall be put to death.
11 If a man lie with his stepmother, and discover the nakedness of his father, let them both be put to death: their blood be upon them.	11 The 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.
12 If any man lie with his daughter in law, let both die, because they have done a heinous crime: their blood be upon them.	12 If 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.

19 Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy aunt by thy mother, and of thy aunt by thy father: he that doth this, hath uncovered the shame of his own flesh, both shall bear their iniquity.	19 You 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.

22 Keep my laws and my judgments, and do them: lest the land into which you are to enter to dwell therein, vomit you also out.	22 "You shall therefore keep all my statutes and all my ordinances, and do them; that the land where I am bringing you to dwell may not vomit you out.
23 Walk not after the laws of the nations, which I will cast out before you. For they have done all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.	23 And you shall not walk in the customs of the nation which I am casting out before you; for they did all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
24 But to you I say: Possess their land which I will give you for an inheritance, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am the Lord your God, who have separated you from other people.	24 But I have said to you, 'You shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess, a land flowing with milk and honey.' I am the LORD your God, who have separated you from the peoples.
25 Therefore do you also separate the clean beast from the unclean, and the clean fowl from the unclean: defile not your souls with beasts, or birds, or any things that move on the earth, and which I have shewn you to be unclean.	25 You shall therefore make a distinction between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean bird and the clean; you shall not make yourselves abominable by beast or by bird or by anything with which the ground teems, which I have set apart for you to hold unclean.
26 You shall be holy unto me, because I the Lord am holy, and I have separated you from other people, that you should be mine.	26 You shall be holy to me; for I the LORD am holy, and have separated you from the peoples, that you should be mine.
