18 aIf a man lies with a woman during her1 sickness and uncovers her nakedness, he has2 exposed her flow, and she has uncovered the flow of her blood. Both of them shall be3 cut off from their people.
19 ‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your amother’s sister nor of your bfather’s sister, for that would uncover his near of kin. They shall bear their guilt.
20 If a man lies with his auncle’s wife, he has uncovered his uncle’s nakedness. They shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
21 If a man takes his abrother’s wife, it is an unclean thing. He has uncovered his brother’s nakedness. They shall be childless.
22 ‘You shall therefore keep all My astatutes and all My judgments, and perform them, that the land where I am bringing you to dwell bmay not vomit you out.
23 aAnd you shall not walk in the statutes of the nation which I am casting out before you; for they commit all these things, and btherefore I abhor them.
