19. You shall not have intercourse with your mother’s sister or your father’s sister, because that dishonors one’s own flesh; they shall bear their penalty.
20. If a man lies with his uncle’s wife, he disgraces his uncle; they shall bear the penalty; they shall die childless.
21. If a man takes his brother’s wife, it is severe defilement and he has disgraced his brother; they shall be childless.
22. Be careful to observe all my statutes and all my decrees; otherwise the land where I am bringing you to dwell will vomit you out.
23. Do not conform, therefore, to the customs of the nations whom I am driving out of your way, because all these things that they have done have filled me with disgust for them.
24. But to you I have said: You shall take possession of their land. I am giving it to you to possess, a land flowing with milk and honey. I, the Lord, am your God, who have set you apart from other peoples.
25. You, too, must set apart, then, the clean animals from the unclean, and the clean birds from the unclean, so that you do not make yourselves detestable through any beast or bird or any creature which creeps on the ground that I have set apart for you as unclean.
26. To me, therefore, you shall be holy; for I, the Lord, am holy, and I have set you apart from other peoples to be my own.
27. A man or a woman who acts as a medium or clairvoyant shall be put to death. They shall be stoned to death; their bloodguilt is upon them.
