Levi ACV 18:17  Thou shall not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter. Thou shall not take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness. They are near kinswomen. It is iniquity.

Levi ACV 18:22  Thou shall not lie with mankind, as with womankind. It is abomination.
Levi ACV 18:23  And thou shall not lie with any beast to defile thyself with it, nor shall any woman stand before a beast, to lie down with it. It is a perversion.
Levi ACV 18:24  Do not defile ye yourselves in any of these things. For in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out from before you,
Levi ACV 18:25  and the land is defiled. Therefore I visit the iniquity of it upon it, and the land vomits out its inhabitants.
Levi ACV 18:26  Ye therefore shall keep my statutes and my ordinances, and shall not do any of these abominations, neither the home-born, nor the stranger that sojourns among you,
Levi ACV 18:27  (for all these abominations the men of the land have done, who were before you, and the land is defiled),
Levi ACV 18:28  that the land not vomit you out also, when ye defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
Levi ACV 18:29  For whoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people.
Levi ACV 18:30  Therefore ye shall keep my charge, that ye not practice any of these abominable customs, which were practiced before you, and that ye not defile yourselves in it. I am Jehovah your God.
