21 Cursed is he who has sex relations with any sort of beast. And let all the people say, So be it.

22 Cursed is he who has sex relations with his sister, the daughter of his father or of his mother. And let all the people say, So be it.

23 Cursed is he who has sex relations with his mother-in-law. And let all the people say, So be it.

24 Cursed is he who takes his neighbour's life secretly. And let all the people say, So be it.
