Leviticus 20

1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen, dicens:

And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

2 Hæc loqueris filiis Israel: Homo de filiis Israel, et de advenis, qui habitant in Israel, si quis dederit de semine suo idolo Moloch, morte moriatur: populus terræ lapidabit eum.

Moreover, thou shall say to the sons of Israel, Whoever he is of the sons of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, who gives of his seed to Molech, he shall surely be put to death. The people of the land shall stone him with stones.

3 Et ego ponam faciem meam contra illum: succidamque eum de medio populi sui, eo quod dederit de semine suo Moloch, et contaminaverit Sanctuarium meum, ac polluerit nomen sanctum meum.

I also will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people, because he has given of his seed to Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.

4 Quod si negligens populus terræ, et quasi parvipendens imperium meum, dimiserit hominem qui dedit de semine suo Moloch, nec voluerit eum occidere:

And if the people at the land do at all hide their eyes from that man, when he gives of his seed to Molech, and do not put him to death,

5 ponam faciem meam super hominem illum, et super cognationem eius, succidamque et ipsum, et omnes qui consensuerunt ei ut fornicarentur cum Moloch, de medio populi sui.

then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all who play the harlot after him, to play the harlot with Molech, from among their people.

6 Anima, quæ declinaverit ad magos et ariolos, et fornicata fuerit cum eis, ponam faciem meam contra eam, et interficiam illam de medio populi sui.

And the soul that turns to those who have familiar spirits, and to the wizards, to play the harlot after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.

7 Sanctificamini et estote sancti, quia ego sum Dominus Deus vester.

Sanctify yourselves therefore, and become ye holy, for I am Jehovah your God.

8 Custodite præcepta mea, et facite ea: Ego Dominus qui sanctifico vos.

And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them. I am Jehovah who sanctifies you.

9 Qui maledixerit patri suo, aut matri, morte moriatur: patri, matrique maledixit, sanguis eius sit super eum.

For he who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death. He has cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.

10 Si mœchatus quis fuerit cum uxore alterius, et adulterium perpetraverit cum coniuge proximi sui, morte moriantur et mœchus et adultera.

And the man who commits adultery with another man's wife, even he who commits adultery with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.

11 Qui dormierit cum noverca sua, et revelaverit ignominiam patris sui, morte moriantur ambo: sanguis eorum sit super eos.

And the man who lies with his father's wife has uncovered his father's nakedness. Both of them shall surely be put to death, their blood shall be upon them.

12 Si quis dormierit cum nuru sua, uterque moriatur, quia scelus operati sunt: sanguis eorum sit super eos.

And if a man lies with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death. They have wrought perversion. Their blood shall be upon them.

13 Qui dormierit cum masculo coitu femineo, uterque operatus est nefas, morte moriantur: sit sanguis eorum super eos.

And if a man lies with a man, as with a woman, both of them have committed abomination. They shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

14 Qui supra uxorem filiam, duxerit matrem eius, scelus operatus est: vivus ardebit cum eis, nec permanebit tantum nefas in medio vestri.

And if a man takes a wife and her mother, it is wickedness. They shall be burnt with fire, both he and they, that there be no wickedness among you.

15 Qui cum iumento et pecore coierit, morte moriatur: pecus quoque occidite.

And if a man lies with a beast, he shall surely be put to death, and ye shall kill the beast.

16 Mulier, quæ succubuerit cuilibet iumento, simul interficietur cum eo: sanguis eorum sit super eos.

And if a woman approaches to any beast, and lies down with it, thou shall kill the woman and the beast. They shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

17 Qui acceperit sororem suam filiam patris sui, vel filiam matris suæ, et viderit turpitudinem eius, illaque conspexerit fratris ignominiam: nefariam rem operati sunt: occidentur in conspectu populi sui, eo quod turpitudinem suam mutuo revelaverint, et portabunt iniquitatem suam.

And if a man shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness, it is a shameful thing, and they shall be cut off in the sight of the sons of their people. He has uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.

18 Qui coierit cum muliere in fluxu menstruo, et revelaverit turpitudinem eius, ipsaque aperuerit fontem sanguinis sui, interficientur ambo de medio populi sui.

And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness, he has made naked her fountain, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood. And both of them shall be cut off from among their people.

19 Turpitudinem materteræ, et amitæ tuæ non discooperies: qui hoc fecerit, ignominiam carnis suæ nudavit, portabunt ambo iniquitatem suam.

And thou shall not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister, nor of thy father's sister, for he has made naked his near kin. They shall bear their iniquity.

20 Qui coierit cum uxore patrui, vel avunculi sui, et revelaverit ignominiam cognationis suæ, portabunt ambo peccatum suum: absque liberis morientur.

And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife, he has uncovered his uncle's nakedness. They shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.

21 Qui duxerit uxorem fratris sui, rem facit illicitam, turpitudinem fratris sui revelavit: absque liberis erunt.

And if a man shall take his brother's wife, it is impurity. He has uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless.

22 Custodite leges meas, atque iudicia, et facite ea: ne et vos evomat terra quam intraturi estis et habitaturi.

Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my ordinances, and do them, that the land, where I bring you to dwell in it, not vomit you out.

23 Nolite ambulare in legitimis nationum, quas ego expulsurus sum ante vos. Omnia enim hæc fecerunt, et abominatus sum eas.

And ye shall not walk in the customs of the nation which I cast out before you, for they did all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.

24 Vobis autem loquor: Possidete terram eorum, quam dabo vobis in hereditatem, terram fluentem lacte et melle. ego Dominus Deus vester, qui separavi vos a ceteris populis.

But I have said to you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am Jehovah your God, who has separated you from the peoples.

25 Separate ergo et vos iumentum mundum ab immundo, et avem mundam ab immunda: ne polluatis animas vestras in pecore, et avibus, et cunctis quæ moventur in terra, et quæ vobis ostendi esse polluta.

Ye shall therefore make a distinction between the clean beast and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean. And ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by bird, or by anything with which the ground teems, which I have separated from you as unclean.

26 Eritis mihi sancti, quia sanctus sum ego Dominus, et separavi vos a ceteris populis, ut essetis mei.

And ye shall be holy to me, for I, Jehovah, am holy, and have set you apart from the peoples, that ye should be mine.

27 Vir, sive mulier, in quibus pythonicus, vel divinationis fuerit spiritus, morte moriantur. lapidibus obruent eos: sanguis eorum sit super illos.

A man or also a woman who has a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death. They shall stone them with stones; their blood shall be upon them.
