Λευϊτικόν 18
1 καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρὸς Μωυσῆν λέγων
Yahweh said to Moses,
2 λάλησον τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτούς ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν
“Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘I am Yahweh your God.
3 κατὰ τὰ ἐπιτηδεύματα γῆς Αἰγύπτου ἐν ᾗ κατῳκήσατε ἐπ’ αὐτῇ οὐ ποιήσετε καὶ κατὰ τὰ ἐπιτηδεύματα γῆς Χανααν εἰς ἣν ἐγὼ εἰσάγω ὑμᾶς ἐκεῖ οὐ ποιήσετε καὶ τοῖς νομίμοις αὐτῶν οὐ πορεύσεσθε
You shall not do as they do in the land of Egypt, where you lived. You shall not do as they do in the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you. You shall not follow their statutes.
4 τὰ κρίματά μου ποιήσετε καὶ τὰ προστάγματά μου φυλάξεσθε πορεύεσθαι ἐν αὐτοῖς ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν
You shall do my ordinances. You shall keep my statutes and walk in them. I am Yahweh your God.
5 καὶ φυλάξεσθε πάντα τὰ προστάγματά μου καὶ πάντα τὰ κρίματά μου καὶ ποιήσετε αὐτά ἃ ποιήσας ἄνθρωπος ζήσεται ἐν αὐτοῖς ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν
You shall therefore keep my statutes and my ordinances, which if a man does, he shall live in them. I am Yahweh.
6 ἄνθρωπος ἄνθρωπος πρὸς πάντα οἰκεῖα σαρκὸς αὐτοῦ οὐ προσελεύσεται ἀποκαλύψαι ἀσχημοσύνην ἐγὼ κύριος

25 καὶ ἐμιάνθη ἡ γῆ καὶ ἀνταπέδωκα ἀδικίαν αὐτοῖς δῑ αὐτήν καὶ προσώχθισεν ἡ γῆ τοῖς ἐγκαθημένοις ἐπ’ αὐτῆς
The land was defiled. Therefore I punished its iniquity, and the land vomited out her inhabitants.

27 πάντα γὰρ τὰ βδελύγματα ταῦτα ἐποίησαν οἱ ἄνθρωποι τῆς γῆς οἱ ὄντες πρότεροι ὑμῶν καὶ ἐμιάνθη ἡ γῆ
(for the men of the land that were before you had done all these abominations, and the land became defiled),
28 καὶ ἵνα μὴ προσοχθίσῃ ὑμῖν ἡ γῆ ἐν τῷ μιαίνειν ὑμᾶς αὐτήν ὃν τρόπον προσώχθισεν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν τοῖς πρὸ ὑμῶν
that the land not vomit you out also, when you defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you.
29 ὅτι πᾶς ὃς ἂν ποιήσῃ ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν βδελυγμάτων τούτων ἐξολεθρευθήσονται αἱ ψυχαὶ αἱ ποιοῦσαι ἐκ τοῦ λαοῦ αὐτῶν
“‘For whoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people.
30 καὶ φυλάξετε τὰ προστάγματά μου ὅπως μὴ ποιήσητε ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν νομίμων τῶν ἐβδελυγμένων ἃ γέγονεν πρὸ τοῦ ὑμᾶς καὶ οὐ μιανθήσεσθε ἐν αὐτοῖς ὅτι ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν
Therefore you shall keep my requirements, that you do not practice any of these abominable customs which were practiced before you, and that you do not defile yourselves with them. I am Yahweh your God.’”
