Leviticus 20:1-8 ▼

1 The LORD spoke to Moses:

2 “Say to the Israelites: Any Israelite or alien residing in Israel who gives any of his children to Molech must be put to death; the people of the country are to stone him.

3 I will turn against that man and cut him off from his people, because he gave his offspring to Molech, defiling my sanctuary and profaning my holy name.

4 But if the people of the country look the other way when that man gives any of his children to Molech, and do not put him to death,

5 then I will turn against that man and his family, and cut off from their people both him and all who follow him in prostituting themselves with Molech.

6 “Whoever turns to mediums or spiritists and prostitutes himself with them, I will turn against that person and cut him off from his people.

7 Consecrate yourselves and be holy, for I am the LORD your God.

8 Keep my statutes and do them; I am the LORD who sets you apart.
