Levitikosy 18
1 Hoe ty nitsara’ Iehovà amy Mosè:
And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Misaontsia amo ana’ Israeleo, taroño ty hoe: Izaho Iehovà Andrianañahare’ areo.
Speak to the sons of Israel, and say to them, I am Jehovah your God.
3 Ko anoe’ areo o satan-tane Mitsraime nimoneña’ areoo; le tsy hanoe’ areo ka o satan-tane Kanàne aneseako anahareoo, tsy hañaveloa’ areo o fañè’ iareoo.
Ye shall not do after the doings of the land of Egypt, in which ye dwelt, and ye shall not do after the doings of the land of Canaan, where I bring you, nor shall ye walk in their statutes.

Ye shall do my ordinances, and ye shall keep my statutes, to walk therein. I am Jehovah your God.

Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my ordinances, which if a man does, he shall live in them. I am Jehovah.

None of you shall approach to any who are near of kin to him, to uncover nakedness. I am Jehovah.
