- 2Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, I am the LORD your God.

- 19Also thou shalt not approach to a woman to uncover her nakedness, as long as she is put apart for her uncleanness.
- 20Moreover, thou shalt not lie carnally with thy neighbor's wife, to defile thyself with her.
- 21And thou shalt not let any of thy seed pass through the fire to Molech, neither shalt thou profane the name of thy God: I am the LORD.
- 22Thou shalt not lie with mankind, as with womankind: it is abomination.
- 23Neither shalt thou lie with any beast to defile thyself therewith: neither shall any woman stand before a beast to lie down thereto: it is confusion.
