Leviticus 18:3-5

Common English Bible

³ You must not do things like they are done in the land of Egypt, where you used to live. And you must not do things like they are done in the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you. You must not follow the practices^[a] of those places. ⁴ No, my regulations and my rules are the ones you must keep by following them: I am the Lord your God. ⁵ You must keep my rules and my regulations; by doing them one will live; I am the Lord.
