1The LORD spoke to Moses, 2"Tell the Israelites: If Israelites or foreigners living among you give one of their children as a sacrifice to [the god] Molech, they must be put to death. The common people must stone them to death. 3I will condemn them and exclude them from the people. They gave one of their children to Molech, made my holy tent unclean, and dishonored my holy name. 4If the common people ignore those who give their children to Molech and do not put them to death, 5I will condemn them and their families. I will exclude them from the people. I will exclude from the people everyone who chases after Molech as if he were a prostitute.

6"I will condemn people who turn to mediums and psychics and chase after them as though they were prostitutes. I will exclude them from the people. 7"Live holy lives. Be holy because I am the LORD your God. 8Obey my laws, and live by them. I am the LORD who sets you apart as holy.

9"Whoever curses his father or mother must be put to death. He has cursed his father or mother and deserves to die.

10"If a man commits adultery with another man's wife or with his neighbor's wife, both he and the woman must be put to death for their adultery. 11Whoever has sexual intercourse with his father's wife has violated his father's marriage. Both he and his father's wife must be put to death. They deserve to die. 12If a man has sexual intercourse with his daughter-in-law, both of them must be put to death. They have done a disgusting thing and deserve to die. 13When a man has sexual intercourse with another man as with a woman, both men are doing something disgusting and must be put to death. They deserve to die. 14When a man marries a woman and her mother, they have done a perverted thing. The man and the two women must be burned. Never do this perverted thing. 15A man who has sexual intercourse with an animal must be put to death. You must kill the animal, too. 16When a woman offers herself sexually to any animal, you must kill both the woman and the animal. They must be put to death. They deserve to die.

17Whoever takes his sister, his father's daughter or his mother's daughter and has sexual intercourse does a shameful thing. They both must be publicly excluded from the people. He has had sexual intercourse with his sister and must be punished. 18If a man has sexual intercourse with a woman while she has her monthly period, both of them have had sexual intercourse in blood. They must be excluded from the people. 19Never have sexual intercourse with your mother's sister or your father's sister. Whoever has sexual intercourse with a close relative must be punished. 20Whoever has sexual intercourse with his uncle's wife violates his uncle's marriage. That man and woman are guilty of sin. They will die without children. 21Whoever marries his brother's wife violates his brother's marriage and does an unclean thing. That man and woman will have no children.

22"If you carefully obey all my laws and my rules, the land I am bringing you to live in will not vomit you out. 23Never follow the practices of the people I am forcing out of your way. I cannot stand them because they did all these things. 24I have told you that you will take their land. I will give it to you as your own. It is a land flowing with milk and honey. I am the LORD your God who separated you from other people. 25Separate clean and unclean animals and birds. Never become disgusting by eating any animal or bird or anything that crawls on the ground. I have separated you from every unclean thing. 26Be my holy people because I, the LORD, am holy. I have separated you from other people to be my very own.

27"Every man or woman who is a medium or a psychic must be put to death. They must be stoned to death because they deserve to die."
