 18:3 After the doings 4639 of the land 776 of Egypt, 4714 wherein x834 ye dwelt, 3427 z8804 shall ye not x3808 do: 6213 z8799 and after the doings 4639 of the land 776 of Canaan, 3667 whither x834 x8033 I x589 bring 935 z8688 you, shall ye not x3808 do: 6213 z8799 neither x3808 shall ye walk y3212 z8799 x1980 in their ordinances. 2708

 18:4 Ye shall do 6213 z8799 x853 my judgments, 4941 and keep 8104 z8799 mine ordinances, 2708 to walk y3212 z8800 x1980 therein: I x589 [am] the LORD 3068 your God. 430

 18:6 ¶ None 376 x3808 of you shall approach 7126 z8799 to x413 any y376 x3605 that is near 7607 of kin 1320 to him, to uncover 1540 z8763 [their] nakedness: 6172 I x589 [am] the LORD. 3068

 18:7 The nakedness 6172 of thy father, 1 or the nakedness 6172 of thy mother, 517 shalt thou not x3808 uncover: 1540 z8762 she x1931 [is] thy mother; 517 thou shalt not x3808 uncover 1540 z8762 her nakedness. 6172

 18:8 The nakedness 6172 of thy father's 1 wife 802 shalt thou not x3808 uncover: 1540 z8762 it x1931 [is] thy father's 1 nakedness. 6172

 18:11 The nakedness 6172 of thy father's 1 wife's 802 daughter, 1323 begotten 4138 of thy father, 1 she x1931 [is] thy sister, 269 thou shalt not x3808 uncover 1540 z8762 her nakedness. 6172

 18:13 Thou shalt not x3808 uncover 1540 z8762 the nakedness 6172 of thy mother's 517 sister: 269 for x3588 she x1931 [is] thy mother's 517 near kinswoman. 7607

 18:14 Thou shalt not x3808 uncover 1540 z8762 the nakedness 6172 of thy father's 1 brother, 251 thou shalt not x3808 approach 7126 z8799 to x413 his wife: 802 she x1931 [is] thine aunt. 1733

 18:15 Thou shalt not x3808 uncover 1540 z8762 the nakedness 6172 of thy daughter-in-law: 3618 she x1931 [is] thy son's 1121 wife; 802 thou shalt not x3808 uncover 1540 z8762 her nakedness. 6172

 18:17 Thou shalt not x3808 uncover 1540 z8762 the nakedness 6172 of a woman 802 and her daughter, 1323 neither x3808 shalt thou take 3947 z8799 x853 her son's 1121 daughter, 1323 or her daughter's 1323 daughter, 1323 to uncover 1540 z8763 her nakedness; 6172 [for] they x2007 [are] her near kinswomen: 7608 it x1931 [is] wickedness. 2154

 18:18 Neither x3808 shalt thou take 3947 z8799 a wife 802 to x413 her sister, 269 to vex 6887 z8800 [her], to uncover 1540 z8763 her nakedness, 6172 beside x5921 the other in her life 2416 [time].

 18:20 Moreover thou shalt not y5414 z8799 x3808 lie y7903 carnally 2233 x5414 x7903 with x413 thy neighbor's 5997 wife, 802 to defile 2930 z8800 thyself with her.

 18:21 And thou shalt not y5414 z8799 x3808 let x5414 any of thy seed 2233 x4480 pass y5674 z8687 through x5674 [the fire] to Molech, 4432 neither x3808 shalt thou profane 2490 z8762 x853 the name 8034 of thy God: 430 I x589 [am] the LORD. 3068

 18:22 Thou shalt not x3808 lie 7901 z8799 with x854 mankind, 2145 as with 4904 womankind: 802 it x1931 [is] abomination. 8441

 18:23 Neither x3808 shalt thou y5414 z8799 lie 7903 x5414 with any x3605 beast 929 to defile 2930 z8800 thyself therewith: neither x3808 shall any woman 802 stand 5975 z8799 before 6440 a beast 929 to lie down 7250 z8800 thereto: it x1931 [is] confusion. 8397

 18:24 Defile y2930 z8691 not ye yourselves x2930 x408 in any x3605 of these things: 428 for x3588 in all x3605 these x428 the nations 1471 are defiled 2930 z8738 which x834 I x589 cast out 7971 z8764 before 6440 x4480 you:

 18:25 And the land 776 is defiled: 2930 z8799 therefore I do visit 6485 z8799 the iniquity 5771 thereof upon x5921 it, and the land 776 itself vomiteth out 6958 z8686 x853 her inhabitants. 3427 z8802

 18:26 Ye x859 shall therefore keep 8104 z8804 x853 my statutes 2708 and my judgments, 4941 and shall not x3808 commit 6213 z8799 [any] of these x4480 x3605 x428 abominations; 8441 [neither] any of your own nation, 249 nor any stranger 1616 that sojourneth 1481 z8802 among 8432 you:

 18:27 (For x3588 x853 all x3605 these 411 abominations 8441 have the men y582 x376 of the land 776 done, 6213 z8804 which x834 [were] before 6440 you, and the land 776 is defiled;) 2930 z8799

 18:28 That the land 776 spew not you out 6958 z8686 x3808 x853 also, when ye defile 2930 z8763 it, as x834 it spewed out 6958 z8804 x853 the nations 1471 that x834 [were] before 6440 you.

 18:29 For x3588 whosoever x3605 x834 shall commit 6213 z8799 any x4480 x3605 of these x428 abominations, 8441 even the souls 5315 that commit 6213 z8802 [them] shall be cut off 3772 z8738 from among 7130 x4480 their people. 5971

 18:30 Therefore shall ye keep 8104 z8804 x853 mine ordinance, 4931 that [ye] commit y6213 z8800 not x6213 x1115 [any one] of these abominable y8441 customs, 2708 x4480 x8441 which x834 were committed 6213 z8738 before 6440 you, and that ye defile y2930 z8691 not yourselves x2930 x3808 therein: I x589 [am] the LORD 3068 your God. 430
