Leviticus 18:15-27 Amplified Bible (AMP)

15. You shall not uncover the nakedness of your daughter-in-law; she is your son's wife; you shall not have intercourse with her.

16. You shall not have intercourse with your brother's wife; she belongs to your brother.

17. You shall not marry a woman and her daughter, nor shall you take her son's daughter or her daughter's daughter to have intercourse; they are [her] near kinswomen; it is wickedness and an outrageous offense.

18. You must not marry a woman in addition to her sister, to be a rival to her, having sexual relations with the second sister when the first one is alive.

19. Also you shall not have intercourse with a woman during her [menstrual period or similar] uncleanness.

20. Moreover, you shall not lie carnally with your neighbor's wife, to defile yourself with her.

21. You shall not give any of your children to pass through the fire and sacrifice them to Molech [the fire god], nor shall you profane the name of your God [by giving it to false gods]. I am the Lord.

22. You shall not lie with a man as with a woman; it is an abomination. [I Cor. 6:9, 10.]

23. Neither shall you lie with any beast and defile yourself with it; neither shall any woman yield herself to a beast to lie with it; it is confusion, perversion, and degradedly carnal.

24. Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, for in all these things the nations are defiled which I am casting out before you.

25. And the land is defiled; therefore I visit the iniquity of it upon it, and the land itself vomits out her inhabitants.

26. So you shall keep My statutes and My ordinances and shall not commit any of these abominations, neither the native-born nor any stranger who sojourns among you,

27. For all these abominations have the men of the land done who were before you, and the land is defiled–
