## Leviticus 20:1-27 in Context (Verses 1–27 KJV)
 
 [1 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/1) And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
 
 [2 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/2) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/3) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/4) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/5) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/6) ¶ 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/7) ¶ Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I *am* the LORD your God.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/8) And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I *am* the LORD which sanctify you.
 
 [9 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/9) ¶ 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/10) ¶ 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/11) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/12) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/13) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/14) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/15) And if a man lie with a beast, he shall surely be put to death: and ye shall slay the beast.
 
 [16 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/16) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/17) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/18) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/19) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/20) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/21) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/22) ¶ 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/23) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/24) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/25) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/26) 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 ](/kjv/leviticus/20/27) ¶ 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.
