Leviticus 18:17-24 Good News Bible (GNB)

17. Do not have intercourse with the daughter or granddaughter of a woman with whom you have had intercourse; they may be related to you, and that would be incest.

18. Do not take your wife's sister as one of your wives, as long as your wife is living.

19. Do not have intercourse with a woman during her monthly period, because she is ritually unclean.

20. Do not have intercourse with another man's wife; that would make you ritually unclean.

21. Do not hand over any of your children to be used in the worship of the god Molech, because that would bring disgrace on the name of God, the Lord.

22. No man is to have sexual relations with another man; God hates that.

23. No man or woman is to have sexual relations with an animal; that perversion makes you ritually unclean.

24. Do not make yourselves unclean by any of these acts, for that is how the pagans made themselves unclean, those pagans who lived in the land before you and whom the Lord is driving out so that you can go in.
