Unlawful Sexual Relations

²⁴ _k "Do not make yourselves unclean by any of these things, _l for by all these the nations I am driving out before you have become unclean, ²⁵ and the _m land became unclean, so that I punished its iniquity, and the land _n vomited out its inhabitants. ²⁶ But _o you shall keep my statutes and my rules and do none of these abominations, either the _p native or the stranger who sojourns among you ²⁷ (for the people of the land, who were before you, did all of these abominations, so that the land became unclean), ²⁸ lest the land vomit you out when you make it unclean, as it vomited out the nation that was before you. ²⁹ For everyone who does any of these abominations, the persons who do them shall be cut off from among their people. ³⁰ _q So keep my charge never to practice _r any of these abominable customs that were practiced before you, and never to make yourselves unclean by them: _s I am the Lord your God."
