NEW JERUSALEMNOVA VULGATA
1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and said:1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen dicens:
2 'Say to the Israelites: "Anyone, be he Israelite or alien resident in Israel, who gives any of his childrento Molech, wil be put to death. The people of the country must stone him,2 “ Haec lo queris filiis Israel: Homo de filiis Israel et de advenis, qui habitant in Israel, si dederit de semine suo idolo Moloch, morte moriatur: populus terrae lapidabit eum.
3 and I shall set my face against that man and outlaw him from his people; for by giving a child of his toMolech he has defiled my sanctuary and profaned my holy name.3 Et ego ponam faciem meam contra illum; succidamque eum de medio populi sui, eo quod dederit de semine suo Moloch et contaminaverit sanctuarium meum ac polluerit nomen sanctum meum.
4 If the people of the country choose to close their eyes to the man's action when he gives a child of histo Molech, and do not put him to death,4 Quod si clauserit populus terrae oculos suos, ne videat hominem illum, qui dederit de semine suo Moloch, nec voluerit eum occidere,
5 I myself shal turn my face against that man and his clan. I shal outlaw them from their people, bothhim and all those after him who prostitute themselves by fol owing Molech.5 ponam ego faciem meam super hominem illum et cognationem eius succidamque et ipsum et omnes, qui consenserunt ei, ut fornicarentur cum Moloch, de medio populi sui.
6 "If anyone has recourse to the spirits of the dead or to magicians, to prostitute himself by followingthem, I shal set my face against him and outlaw him from his people.6 Anima, quae declinaverit ad pythones et hariolos et fornicata fuerit cum eis, ponam faciem meam contra eam et interficiam illam de medio populi sui.
7 "Sanctify yourselves and be holy, for I am Yahweh your God.7 Sanctificamini et estote sancti, quia ego Dominus Deus vester.
8 "You wil keep my laws and put them into practice, for it is I, Yahweh, who make you holy.8 Custodite praecepta mea et facite ea. Ego Dominus, qui sanctifico vos.
9 Hence: "Anyone who curses father or mother wil be put to death. Having cursed father or mother, theblood wil be on that person's own head.9 Qui maledixerit patri suo et matri, morte moriatur; qui patri matrique maledixit, sanguis eius sit super eum.
10 "The man who commits adultery with his neighbour's wife wil be put to death, he and the woman.10 Si moechatus quis fuerit cum uxore alterius et adulterium perpetrarit cum coniuge proximi sui, morte moriantur et moechus et adultera.

14 "The man who marries a woman and her mother: this is incest. They wil be burnt alive, he and they;you wil not tolerate incest.14 Qui supra uxorem filiam duxerit matrem eius, scelus operatus est: vivus ardebit cum eis, nec permanebit tantum nefas in medio vestri.

17 "The man who marries his father's or his mother's daughter: if they have intercourse together, this isan outrage. They wil be executed in public, for the man has had intercourse with his sister; he wil bear theconsequences of his guilt.17 Qui acceperit sororem suam filiam patris sui vel filiam matris suae et viderit turpitudinem eius, illaque conspexerit fratris ignominiam, nefaria res est; occidentur in conspectu populi sui, eo quod turpitudinem sororis suae revelaverit, portabit iniquitatem suam.
18 "The man who has intercourse with a woman during her monthly periods and exposes hernakedness: he has laid bare the source of her blood, and she has exposed the source of her blood, and both ofthem wil be outlawed from their people.18 Qui coierit cum muliere in fluxu menstruo et revelaverit turpitudinem eius ­ fontem eius nudavit, ipsaque aperuit fontem sanguinis sui ­ interficientur ambo de medio populi sui.

23 You wil not fol ow the laws of the nations whom I am driving out before you; they practised al thesethings, which is why I detested them.23 Nolite ambulare in legitimis nationum, quas ego expulsurus sum ante vos. Omnia enim haec fecerunt, et abominatus sum eas
24 As I have already told you, you wil take possession of their soil, I myself shal give you possession ofit, a country flowing with milk and honey. "Since I, Yahweh your God, have set you apart from these peoples,24 locutusque sum vobis: Vos possidebitis terram eorum, et ego dabo eam vobis in hereditatem, terram fluentem lacte et melle. Ego Dominus Deus vester, qui separavi vos a ceteris populis.
