1 And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

2 Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am the Lord your God.

3 After the doings of the land of Egypt, wherein ye dwelt, shall ye not do; and after the doings of the land of Canaan, whither I bring you, shall ye not do; neither shall ye walk in their ordinances.

4 Ye shall do my judgments, and keep mine ordinances, to walk therein; I am the Lord your God.

5 Ye shall therefore keep my statutes, and my judgments; which if a man do, he shall live in them; I am the Lord.

6 None of you shall approach to any that is near of kin to him, to uncover their nakedness; I am the Lord.

7 The nakedness of thy father, or the nakedness of thy mother, shalt thou not uncover; she is thy mother; thou shalt not uncover her nakedness.

8 The nakedness of thy father's wife shalt thou not uncover; it is thy father's nakedness.
