Leviticus 18:2-9 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

2. Speak to the children of Israel, and thou shalt say to them: I am the Lord your God.

3. You shall not do according to the custom of the land of Egypt, in which you dwelt: neither shall you act according to the manner of the country of Chanaan, into which I will bring you, nor shall you walk in their ordinances.

4. You shall do my judgments, and shall observe my precepts, and shall walk in them. I am the Lord your God.

5. Keep my laws and my judgments, which if a man do, he shall live in them. I am the Lord.

6. No man shall approach to her that is near of kin to him, to uncover her nakedness. I am the Lord.

7. Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother: she is thy mother, thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

8. Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy father's wife: for it is the nakedness of thy father.

9. Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy sister by father or by mother, whether born at home or abroad.
