Leviticus 18:21-27 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

21. “‘You must not give any of your children to be sacrificed to Molech. This will show that you do not respect your God. I am the Lord.

22. “‘You must not have physical relations with a man as you would a woman. That is a hated sin.

23. “‘You must not have unnatural physical relations with an animal and make yourself unclean with it. Also a woman must not have unnatural physical relations with an animal. It is not natural.

24. “‘Don’t make yourself unclean by any of these wrong things. I am forcing nations out of their countries because they did these sins. And I am giving their land to you.

25. The land has become unclean. So I punished it for its sins. And the land is throwing out those people who live there.

26. “‘You must obey my laws and rules. You must not do any of these hated sins. These rules are for the citizens of Israel. They are also for the people who live with you.

27. The people who lived in the land before you did all these hated things. So the land became unclean.
