1. And the LORD spoke unto Moses, saying,
2. Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am the LORD your God.
3. According to the practices in the land of Egypt, wherein you dwelt, shall you not do: and according to the practices of the land of Canaan, where I bring you, shall you not do: neither shall you walk in their ordinances.
4. You shall do my ordinances, and keep my statutes, to walk therein: I am the LORD your God.
5. You shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments: which if a man do, he shall live in them: I am the LORD.
6. None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness: I am the LORD.
7. The nakedness of your father, or the nakedness of your mother, shall you not uncover: she is your mother; you shall not uncover her nakedness.
8. The nakedness of your father's wife shall you not uncover: it is your father's nakedness.
