Leviticus 20:21-27 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

21. He that marrieth his brother's wife, doth an unlawful thing, he hath uncovered his brother's nakedness: they shall be without children.

22. Keep my laws and my judgments, and do them: lest the land into which you are to enter to dwell therein, vomit you also out.

23. Walk not after the laws of the nations, which I will cast out before you. For they have done all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.

24. But to you I say: Possess their land which I will give you for an inheritance, a land flowing with milk and honey. I am the Lord your God, who have separated you from other people.

25. Therefore do you also separate the clean beast from the unclean, and the clean fowl from the unclean: defile not your souls with beasts, or birds, or any things that move on the earth, and which I have shewn you to be unclean.

26. You shall be holy unto me, because I the Lord am holy, and I have separated you from other people, that you should be mine.

27. A man, or woman, in whom there is a pythonical or divining spirit, dying let them die: they shall stone them: their blood be upon them.
