New Testament

Leviticus 20:4-14 English Standard Version (ESV)

4. And if the people of the land do at all close their eyes to that man when he gives one of his children to Molech, and do not put him to death,

5. then I will set my face against that man and against his clan and will cut them off from among their people, him and all who follow him in whoring after Molech.

6. “If a person turns to mediums and necromancers, whoring after them, I will set my face against that person and will cut him off from among his people.

7. Consecrate yourselves, therefore, and be holy, for I am the Lord your God.

8. Keep my statutes and do them; I am the Lord who sanctifies you.

9. For anyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death; he has cursed his father or his mother; his blood is upon him.

10. “If a man commits adultery with the wife of his neighbor, both the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.

11. If a man lies with his father’s wife, he has uncovered his father’s nakedness; both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them.

12. If a man lies with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death; they have committed perversion; their blood is upon them.

13. If a man lies with a male as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination; they shall surely be put to death; their blood is upon them.

14. If a man takes a woman and her mother also, it is depravity; he and they shall be burned with fire, that there may be no depravity among you.
