26 custodite legitima mea atque iudicia et non faciat ex omnibus abominationibus istis tam indigena quam colonus qui peregrinatur apud vos
And you shall keep all my statutes and all my ordinances, and you shall do none of these abominations; neither the native, nor the stranger that joins himself with you:

(for all these abominations the men of the land did who were before you, and the land was defiled, )
28 cavete ergo ne et vos similiter evomat cum paria feceritis sicut evomuit gentem quae fuit ante vos
