18 Não tomarás mulher juntamente com sua irmã, para fazê-la sua rival, descobrindo sua nudez diante dela em sua vida.

19 E não chegarás à mulher na separação de sua impureza, para descobrir sua nudez.

20 Além disso, não terás ato carnal com a mulher de teu próximo, contaminando-te nela.

21 E não dês de tua descendência para fazê-la passar pelo fogo a Moloque; não contamines o nome de teu Deus: Eu sou o SENHOR.

22 Não te deitarás com homem como com mulher: é abominação.
