- 'But as for you, you are to keep My statutes and My judgments and shall not do any of these abominations, neither the native, nor the alien who sojourns among you
- (for the men of the land who have been before you have done all these abominations, and the land has become defiled);
- so that the land will not spew you out, should you defile it, as it has spewed out the nation which has been before you.
- 'For whoever does any of these abominations, those persons who do so shall be cut off from among their people.
- 'Thus you are to keep My charge, that you do not practice any of the abominable customs which have been practiced before you, so as not to defile yourselves with them; I am the LORD your God.'"

- But you must keep my decrees and my laws. The native-born and the aliens living among you must not do any of these detestable things,
- for all these things were done by the people who lived in the land before you, and the land became defiled.
- And if you defile the land, it will vomit you out as it vomited out the nations that were before you.
- " 'Everyone who does any of these detestable things--such persons must be cut off from their people.
- Keep my requirements and do not follow any of the detestable customs that were practiced before you came and do not defile yourselves with them. I am the LORD your God.' "
