1
And the LORD said to Moses,
2
"Say to the people of Israel, I am the LORD your God.
3
You shall not do as they do in the land of Egypt, where you dwelt, and you shall not do as they do in the land of Canaan, to which I am bringing you. You shall not walk in their statutes.
4
You shall do my ordinances and keep my statutes and walk in them. I am the LORD your God.
5
You shall therefore keep my statutes and my ordinances, by doing which a man shall live: I am the LORD.
6
"None of you shall approach any one near of kin to him to uncover nakedness. I am the LORD.
7
You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father, which is the nakedness of your mother; she is your mother, you shall not uncover her nakedness.
8
You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's wife; it is your father's nakedness.
9
You shall not uncover the nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father or the daughter of your mother, whether born at home or born abroad.
10
You shall not uncover the nakedness of your son's daughter or of your daughter's daughter, for their nakedness is your own nakedness.
11
You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's wife's daughter, begotten by your father, since she is your sister.
12
You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father's sister; she is your father's near kinswoman.
13
You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister, for she is your mother's near kinswoman.
