Leviticus 18
1 And the Lord spake vnto Moses, saying,
Locutus est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:
2 Speake vnto the children of Israel, and say vnto them, I am the Lord your God.
Loquere filiis Israel, et dices ad eos: Ego Dominus Deus vester:
3 After ye doings of the land of Egypt, wherin ye dwelt, shall ye not doe: and after the maner of the land of Canaan, whither I will bring you, shall ye not do, neither walke in their ordinances,
iuxta consuetudinem Terræ Ægypti, in qua habitastis, non facietis: et iuxta morem Regionis Chanaan, ad quam ego introducturus sum vos, non agetis, nec in legitimis eorum ambulabitis.
4 But do after my iudgements, and keepe mine ordinances, to walke therein: I am the Lord your God.
Facietis iudicia mea, et præcepta mea servabitis, et ambulabitis in eis. ego Dominus Deus vester.
5 Ye shall keepe therefore my statutes, and my iudgements, which if a man doe, he shall then liue in them: I am the Lord.
Custodite leges meas atque iudicia, quæ faciens homo, vivet in eis. Ego Dominus.
