Leviticus 18:1-11 ▼

1 And YHWH speaks to Moses, saying,

2 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: I [am] your God YHWH;

3 you do not do according to the work of the land of Egypt in which you have dwelt, and you do not do according to the work of the land of Canaan to where I am bringing you in, and you do not walk in their statutes.

4 You do My judgments and you keep My statutes, to walk in them; I [am] your God YHWH.

5 And you have kept My statutes and My judgments which man does and lives in them; I [am] YHWH.

6 None of you draws near to any relation of his flesh to uncover nakedness; I [am] YHWH.

7 You do not uncover the nakedness of your father and the nakedness of your mother, she [is] your mother; you do not uncover her nakedness.

8 You do not uncover the nakedness of the wife of your father; it [is] the nakedness of your father.

9 The nakedness of your sister, daughter of your father, or daughter of your mother, born at home or born outside—you do not uncover their nakedness.

10 The nakedness of your son’s daughter, or of your daughter’s daughter—you do not uncover their nakedness; for theirs [is] your nakedness.

11 The nakedness of a daughter of your father’s wife, begotten of your father, she [is] your sister—you do not uncover her nakedness.
