(Lev 20:1) And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,
(Lev 20:2) Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever {he be} of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth {any} of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones.
(Lev 20:3) And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
(Lev 20:4) And if the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from the man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, and kill him not:
(Lev 20:5) Then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom with Molech, from among their people.
(Lev 20:6) And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
(Lev 20:7) Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I {am} the Lord your God.
(Lev 20:8) And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I {am} the Lord which sanctify you.
(Lev 20:9) For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood {shall be} upon him.
(Lev 20:10) And the man that committeth adultery with {another} man's wife, {even he} that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
(Lev 20:11) And the man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood {shall be} upon them.
(Lev 20:12) And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood {shall be} upon them.
(Lev 20:13) If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood {shall be} upon them.
(Lev 20:14) And if a man take a wife and her mother, it {is} wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you.
(Lev 20:15) And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death: and ye shall slay the beast.
(Lev 20:16) And if a woman approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou shalt kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be put to death; their blood {shall be} upon them.
(Lev 20:17) And if a man shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness; it {is} a wicked thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of their people: he hath uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
(Lev 20:18) And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness; he hath discovered her fountain, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
(Lev 20:19) And thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister, nor of thy father's sister: for he uncovereth his near kin: they shall bear their iniquity.

(Lev 20:22) Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spue you not out.
(Lev 20:23) And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
(Lev 20:24) But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey: I {am} the Lord your God, which have separated you from {other} people.
(Lev 20:25) Ye shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean fowls and clean: and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creepeth on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.
(Lev 20:26) And ye shall be holy unto me: for I the Lord {am} holy, and have severed you from {other} people, that ye should be mine.
