Levi Webster 18:2  Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, I [am] the LORD your God.
Levi Webster 18:3  After the doings of the land of Egypt in which ye dwelt, shall ye not do: and after the doings of the land of Canaan whither I bring you, shall ye not do: neither shall ye walk in their ordinances.
Levi Webster 18:4  Ye shall perform my judgments, and keep my ordinances, to walk in them; I [am] the LORD your God.
Levi Webster 18:5  Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments: which if a man doeth, he shall live in them: I [am] the LORD.
Levi Webster 18:6  None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover [their] nakedness: I am the LORD.
Levi Webster 18:7  The nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover: she [is] thy mother, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
Levi Webster 18:8  The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover: it [is] thy father's nakedness.
Levi Webster 18:9  The nakedness of thy sister, the daughter of thy father, or daughter of thy mother, [whether] born at home, or born abroad, [even] their nakedness thou shalt not uncover.
Levi Webster 18:10  The nakedness of thy son's daughter, or of thy daughter's daughter, [even] their nakedness thou shalt not uncover: for theirs [is] thy own nakedness.
Levi Webster 18:11  The nakedness of thy father's wife's daughter, begotten by thy father, (she [is] thy sister) thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.
Levi Webster 18:12  Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's sister: she [is] thy father's near kinswoman.
Levi Webster 18:13  Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister: for she [is] thy mother's near kinswoman.
Levi Webster 18:14  Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's brother, thou shalt not approach to his wife: she [is] thy aunt.

Levi Webster 18:16  Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother's wife: it [is] thy brother's nakedness.
Levi Webster 18:17  Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of a woman and her daughter, neither shalt thou take her son's daughter, or her daughter's daughter, to uncover her nakedness; [for] they [are] her near kinswomen: it [is] wickedness.
Levi Webster 18:18  Neither shalt thou take a wife to her sister, to vex [her], to uncover her nakedness besides the other in her life-[time].
Levi Webster 18:19  Also thou shalt not approach to a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.
Levi Webster 18:20  Moreover, thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbor's wife, to defile thyself with her.
Levi Webster 18:21  And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through [the fire] to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I [am] the LORD.
Levi Webster 18:22  Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it [is] abomination.
Levi Webster 18:23  Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it [is] confusion.
Levi Webster 18:24  Defile not ye yourselves in any of these things; for in all these the nations are defiled which I cast out before you:
Levi Webster 18:25  And the land is defiled: therefore I do visit its iniquity upon it, and the land itself vomiteth out her inhabitants.
Levi Webster 18:26  Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit [any] of these abominations; [neither] any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you.
Levi Webster 18:27  (For all these abominations have the men of the land done, who [were] before you, and the land is defiled;)
Levi Webster 18:28  That the land may not vomit you out also, when ye defile it, as it vomited out the nations that [were] before you.
Levi Webster 18:29  For whoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that commit [them] shall be cut off from among their people.
Levi Webster 18:30  Therefore shall ye keep my ordinance, that [ye] commit not [any one] of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye defile not yourselves in them; I [am] the LORD your God.
