New American Standard Bible NAS
New International Version NIV
24 'Do not defile yourselves by any of these things; for by all these the nations which I am casting out before you have become defiled.
24
“ ‘Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, because this is how the nations that I am going to drive out before you became defiled.
25 'For the land has become defiled, therefore I have brought its punishment upon it, so the land has spewed out its inhabitants.
25
Even the land was defiled; so I punished it for its sin, and the land vomited out its inhabitants.
26 'But as for you, you are to keep My statutes and My judgments and shall not do any of these abominations, neither the native, nor the alien who sojourns among you
26
But you must keep my decrees and my laws. The native-born and the foreigners residing among you must not do any of these detestable things,
27 (for the men of the land who have been before you have done all these abominations, and the land has become defiled );
27
for all these things were done by the people who lived in the land before you, and the land became defiled.
28 so that the land will not spew you out, should you defile it, as it has spewed out the nation which has been before you.
28
And if you defile the land, it will vomit you out as it vomited out the nations that were before you.
