Leviticus

The third book of Moses, called Leviticus, chapter 20, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 20 Vulgate

   1 Locutusque est Dominus ad Moysen dicens:
   2 "Haec lo queris filiis Israel: Homo de filiis Israel et de advenis, qui habitant in Israel, si dederit de semine suo idolo Moloch, morte moriatur: populus terrae lapidabit eum.
   3 Et ego ponam faciem meam contra illum; succidamque eum de medio populi sui, eo quod dederit de semine suo Moloch et contaminaverit sanctuarium meum ac polluerit nomen sanctum meum.
   4 Quod si clauserit populus terrae oculos suos, ne videat hominem illum, qui dederit de semine suo Moloch, nec voluerit eum occidere,
   5 ponam ego faciem meam super hominem illum et cognationem eius succidamque et ipsum et omnes, qui consenserunt ei, ut fornicarentur cum Moloch, de medio populi sui.
   6 Anima, quae declinaverit ad pythones et hariolos et fornicata fuerit cum eis, ponam faciem meam contra eam et interficiam illam de medio populi sui.
   7 Sanctificamini et estote sancti, quia ego Dominus Deus vester.
   8 Custodite praecepta mea et facite ea. Ego Dominus, qui sanctifico vos.
   9 Qui maledixerit patri suo et matri, morte moriatur; qui patri matrique maledixit, sanguis eius sit super eum.
   10 Si moechatus quis fuerit cum uxore alterius et adulterium perpetrarit cum coniuge proximi sui, morte moriantur et moechus et adultera.
   11 Qui dormierit cum noverca sua et revelaverit ignominiam patris sui, morte moriantur ambo: sanguis eorum sit super eos.
   12 Si quis dormierit cum nuru sua, uterque moriatur, quia scelus operati sunt: sanguis eorum sit super eos.
   13 Qui dormierit cum masculo coitu femineo, uterque operatus est nefas, morte moriantur: sit sanguis eorum super eos.
   14 Qui supra uxorem filiam duxerit matrem eius, scelus operatus est: vivus ardebit cum eis, nec permanebit tantum nefas in medio vestri.
   15 Qui cum iumento et pecore coierit, morte moriatur; pecus quoque occidite.
   16 Mulier, quae succubuerit cuilibet iumento, simul interficies illam cum eo, morte moriantur: sanguis eorum sit super eos.
   17 Qui acceperit sororem suam filiam patris sui vel filiam matris suae et viderit turpitudinem eius, illaque conspexerit fratris ignominiam, nefaria res est; occidentur in conspectu populi sui, eo quod turpitudinem sororis suae revelaverit, portabit iniquitatem suam.
   18 Qui coierit cum muliere in fluxu menstruo et revelaverit turpitudinem eius fontem eius nudavit, ipsaque aperuit fontem sanguinis sui interficientur ambo de medio populi sui.
   19 Turpitudinem materterae et amitae tuae non discooperies; qui hoc fecerit, ignominiam carnis suae nudavit; portabunt ambo iniquitatem suam.
   20 Qui coierit cum uxore patrui vel avunculi sui et revelaverit ignominiam cognationis suae, portabunt ambo peccatum suum: absque liberis morientur.
   21 Qui duxerit uxorem fratris sui, immunditia est, turpitudinem fratris sui revelavit: absque liberis erunt.
   22 Custodite omnes leges meas atque omnia iudicia et facite ea, ne et vos evomat terra, quam intraturi estis et habitaturi.
   23 Nolite ambulare in legitimis nationum, quas ego expulsurus sum ante vos. Omnia enim haec fecerunt, et abominatus sum eas
   24 locutusque sum vobis: Vos possidebitis terram eorum, et ego dabo eam vobis in hereditatem, terram fluentem lacte et melle. Ego Dominus Deus vester, qui separavi vos a ceteris populis.
   25 Separate ergo et vos iumentum mundum ab immundo et avem immundam a munda, ne polluatis animas vestras in pecore et in avibus et cunctis, quae moventur in terra, et quae vobis separavi tamquam immunda.
   26 Eritis mihi sancti, quia sanctus sum ego Dominus et separavi vos a ceteris populis, ut essetis mei.
   27 Vir sive mulier, in quibus pythonicus vel divinationis fuerit spiritus, morte moriantur; lapidibus obruent eos: sanguis eorum sit super illos"

King James Version

   1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
   2 Again, thou shalt say to the children of Israel, Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that sojourn in Israel, that giveth any of his seed unto Molech; he shall surely be put to death: the people of the land shall stone him with stones.
   3 And I will set my face against that man, and will cut him off from among his people; because he hath given of his seed unto Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.
   4 And if the people of the land do any ways hide their eyes from the man, when he giveth of his seed unto Molech, and kill him not:
   5 Then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all that go a whoring after him, to commit whoredom with Molech, from among their people.
   6 ¶ And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
   7 ¶ Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I am the LORD your God.
   8 And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I am the LORD which sanctify you.
   9 ¶ For every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death: he hath cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.
   10 ¶ And the man that committeth adultery with another man's wife, even he that committeth adultery with his neighbour's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.
   11 And the man that lieth with his father's wife hath uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
   12 And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood shall be upon them.
   13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
   14 And if a man take a wife and her mother, it is wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you.
   15 And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death: and ye shall slay the beast.
   16 And if a woman approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto, thou shalt kill the woman, and the beast: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
   17 And if a man shall take his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and see her nakedness, and she see his nakedness; it is a wicked thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of their people: he hath uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.
   18 And if a man shall lie with a woman having her sickness, and shall uncover her nakedness; he hath discovered her fountain, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
   19 And thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother's sister, nor of thy father's sister: for he uncovereth his near kin: they shall bear their iniquity.
   20 And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife, he hath uncovered his uncle's nakedness: they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.
   21 And if a man shall take his brother's wife, it is an unclean thing: he hath uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless.
   22 ¶ Ye shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: that the land, whither I bring you to dwell therein, spue you not out.
   23 And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
   24 But I have said unto you, Ye shall inherit their land, and I will give it unto you to possess it, a land that floweth with milk and honey: I am the LORD your God, which have separated you from other people.
   25 Ye shall therefore put difference between clean beasts and unclean, and between unclean fowls and clean: and ye shall not make your souls abominable by beast, or by fowl, or by any manner of living thing that creepeth on the ground, which I have separated from you as unclean.
   26 And ye shall be holy unto me: for I the LORD am holy, and have severed you from other people, that ye should be mine.
   27 ¶ A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood shall be upon them.
