Do Not Commit Sexual Sins
1The Lord spoke to Moses. He said, 2“Speak to the Israelites. Tell them, ‘I am the Lord your God. 3Do not do what the people of Egypt do. You used to live there. And do not do what the people of Canaan do. I am bringing you into their land. Do not follow their practices. 4Obey my laws. Be careful to follow my rules. I am the Lord your God. 5Keep my rules and laws. The one who obeys them will benefit from living by them. I am the Lord.
6“ ‘Do not have sex with any of your close relatives. I am the Lord.
7“ ‘Do not bring shame on your father by having sex with your mother. Do not have sex with her. She is your mother.
8“ ‘Do not have sex with any other wife of your father. That would bring shame on your father.
9“ ‘Do not have sex with your sister. It does not matter whether she is your father’s daughter or your mother’s daughter. It does not matter whether she was born in the same home as you were or somewhere else.
10“ ‘Do not have sex with your son’s daughter or your daughter’s daughter. That would bring shame on you.
11“ ‘Do not have sex with the daughter of your father’s wife. She was born to your father. She is your sister.
12“ ‘Do not have sex with your father’s sister. She is a close relative on your father’s side.
13“ ‘Do not have sex with your mother’s sister. She is a close relative on your mother’s side.
14“ ‘Do not bring shame on your father’s brother by having sex with his wife. She is your aunt.
15“ ‘Do not have sex with your daughter-in-law. She is your son’s wife. Do not have sex with her.
16“ ‘Do not have sex with your brother’s wife. That would bring shame on your brother.
17“ ‘Do not have sex with both a woman and her daughter. Do not have sex with either her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter. They are close relatives on her side. Having sex with them is an evil thing.
18“ ‘Do not take your wife’s sister as another wife and have sex with her. Do not do it while your wife is still living.
19“ ‘Do not have sex with a woman during her monthly period. She is “unclean” at that time.
20“ ‘Do not have sex with your neighbor’s wife. That would make you “unclean.”
21“ ‘Do not hand over any of your children to be sacrificed to the god Molek. That would be treating my name as if it were not holy. I am the Lord your God.
22“ ‘Do not have sex with a man as you would have sex with a woman. I hate that.
23“ ‘Do not have sex with an animal. Do not make yourself “unclean” by doing that. A woman must not offer herself to an animal to have sex with it. That is a wrong use of sex.
24“ ‘Do not make yourselves “unclean” in any of these ways. That is how other nations became “unclean.” So I am going to drive those nations out of the land to make room for you. 25Even their land was not “clean.” So I punished it because of its sin. The land itself threw out the people who lived there. 26But you must keep my rules and my laws. You must not do any of the things I hate. It does not matter whether you are Israelites or outsiders. 27All these things were done by the people who lived in the land before you. That is how the land became “unclean.” 28If you make the land “unclean,” it will throw you out. It will get rid of you just as it got rid of the nations there before you.
29“ ‘Suppose you do any of the things I hate. Then you must be separated from your people. 30Do exactly what I require. When you arrive in Canaan, do not follow any of the practices of its people. I hate the things they do. Do not make yourselves “unclean” by doing them. I am the Lord your God.’ ”
