- Ye shall therefore keep my statutes and my judgments, and shall not commit any of these abominations; neither any of your own nation, nor any stranger that sojourneth among you:
- (For all these abominations have the men of the land done, which were before you, and the land is defiled;)
- That the land spue not you out also, when ye defile it, as it spued out the nations that were before you.
- For whosoever shall commit any of these abominations, even the souls that commit them shall be cut off from among their people.
- Therefore shall ye keep mine ordinance, that ye commit not any one of these abominable customs, which were committed before you, and that ye defile not yourselves therein: I am the LORD your God.

- '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.'"
