Leviticus 20:21 in Context — Leviticus 20
19 A nudez da irmã de tua mãe, ou da irmã de teu pai, não descobrirás; uma vez que descobriu sua parente, levarão sobresi a sua perversidade.
20 E qualquer um que dormir com a mulher do irmão de seu pai, a nudez do irmão de seu pai descobriu; seu pecado levarão; morrerão sem filhos.
21 E o que tomar a mulher de seu irmão, é imundícia; a nudez de seu irmão descobriu; sem filhos serão.
22 Guardai, pois, todos meus estatutos e todos meus regulamentos, e ponde-os por obra: e não vos vomitará a terra, na qual eu vos introduzo para que habiteis nela.
23 E não andeis nas práticas da gente que eu lançarei de diante de vós: porque eles fizeram todas estas coisas, e os tive em abominação.
