Levítico 20
1 Y él Señor dijo a Moisés:
Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
2 Nuevamente, di a los hijos de Israel: Si algún hombre de los hijos de Israel, o cualquier otro hombre que vive en Israel, le da su descendencia a Molec, ciertamente será ejecutado: debe ser apedreado. por el pueblo de la tierra;
“Say to the people of Israel, 'Anyone among the people of Israel, or any foreigner who lives in Israel who gives any of his children to Molech, must certainly be put to death. The people in the land must stone him with stones.
3 Y mi rostro se volverá contra ese hombre, y él será cortado de su pueblo; porque ha dado su descendencia a Molec, haciendo mi lugar santo inmundo, y profanar mi santo nombre.
I also will set my face against that man and will cut him off from among his people because he has given his child to Molech, so as to defile my holy place and profane my holy name.
4 Y si la gente de la tierra no toma nota de ese hombre cuando da su descendencia a Molec, y no lo mata,
If the people of the land close their eyes to that man when he gives any of his children to Molech, if they do not put him to death,
5 Entonces mi rostro se volverá contra él y su familia, y él y todos los que fornicaron prostituyéndose con él serán separados de entre su gente.
then I myself will set my face against that man and his clan, and I will cut him off and everyone else who prostitutes himself in order to play the harlot with Molech.
6 Y el que persiga a los que hacen uso de espíritus y adivinadores, prostituyéndose con ellos, se volverá contra él, y será cortado de entre su pueblo.
The person who turns to those who talk with the dead, or to those who talk with spirits so as to prostitute themselves with them, I will set my face against that person; I will cut him off from among his people.
7 Así que se santo y mantente santo, porque yo soy el Señor, tu Dios.
Therefore consecrate yourselves and be holy, because I am Yahweh your God.
8 Y guarda mis reglas y hazlas: Yo soy el Señor, que te santifico.
You must keep my commands and carry them out. I am Yahweh who sets you apart as holy.
9 Todo hombre que maldice a su padre o a su madre ciertamente debe ser condenado a muerte; Debido a su maldición sobre su padre o su madre, su sangre estará sobre él.
Everyone who curses his father or his mother must surely be put to death. He has cursed his father or his mother, so he is guilty and deserves to die.
10 Y si un hombre tiene relaciones sexuales con la esposa de otro hombre, incluso la esposa de su vecino, él y ella ciertamente serán condenados a muerte.

You must therefore keep all my statutes and all my decrees; you must obey them so that the land into which I am bringing you to live will not vomit you up.

You must not walk in the customs of the nations that I will drive out before you, for they have done all these things, and I detest them.

I said to you, “You will inherit their land; I will give it to you to possess, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am Yahweh your God, who has separated you from the other peoples.

You must therefore distinguish between the clean animals and the unclean, and between the unclean birds and the clean. You must not defile yourselves with unclean animals or birds or with any creature that crawls along the ground, which I have separated as unclean from you.

You must be holy, for I, Yahweh, am holy, and I have separated you from the other peoples, for you belong to me.
