Leviticus 18 — Rahlfs Septuagint

And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying

λάλησον τοῖς υἱοῖς Ισραηλ καὶ ἐρεῖς πρὸς αὐτούς ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν

Speak to the sons of Israel, and you shall say to them: I am the Lord your God.

According to the practices of the land of Egypt, in which you dwelt upon it, you shall not do; and according to the practices of the land of Canaan, into which I am bringing you there, you shall not do; and in their ordinances you shall not walk.

4

τὰ κρίματά μου ποιήσετε καὶ τὰ προστάγματά μου φυλάξεσθε πορεύεσθαι ἐν αὐτοῖς ἐγὼ κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὑμῶν

You shall do my judgments and keep my statutes, to walk in them; I am the Lord your God.

5

And you shall keep all my ordinances and all my judgments, and you shall do them, which if a man does, he shall live by them; I am the Lord your God.

6

ἄνθρωπος ἄνθρωπος πρὸς πάντα οἰκεῖα σαρκὸς αὐτοῦ οὐ προσελεύσεται ἀποκαλύψαι ἀσχημοσύνην ἐγὼ κύριος

A man, a man, shall not approach to any of the relatives of his flesh to uncover shame; I am the Lord

7

ἀσχημοσύνην πατρός σου καὶ ἀσχημοσύνην μητρός σου οὐκ ἀποκαλύψεις μήτηρ γάρ σού ἐστιν καὶ οὐκ ἀποκαλύψεις τὴν ἀσχημοσύνην αὐτῆς

You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father and the nakedness of your mother; for she is your mother, and you shall not uncover her nakedness.

8

ἀσχημοσύνην γυναικὸς πατρός σου οὐκ ἀποκαλύψεις ἀσχημοσύνη πατρός σού ἐστιν

You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s wife; it is your father’s nakedness.

9

ἀσχημοσύνην τῆς ἀδελφῆς σου ἐκ πατρός σου ἢ ἐκ μητρός σου ἐνδογενοῦς ἢ γεγεννημένης ἔξω οὐκ ἀποκαλύψεις ἀσχημοσύνην αὐτῆς

The nakedness of your sister, from your father or from your mother, whether born within the house or born outside, you shall not uncover her nakedness.

10

ἀσχημοσύνην θυγατρὸς υἱοῦ σου ἢ θυγατρὸς θυγατρός σου οὐκ ἀποκαλύψεις τὴν ἀσχημοσύνην αὐτῶν ὅτι σὴ ἀσχημοσύνη ἐστίν

The nakedness of the daughter of your son or the daughter of your daughter you shall not uncover; their nakedness, for it is your nakedness.

11

ἀσχημοσύνην θυγατρὸς γυναικὸς πατρός σου οὐκ ἀποκαλύψεις ὁμοπατρία ἀδελφή σού ἐστιν οὐκ ἀποκαλύψεις τὴν ἀσχημοσύνην αὐτῆς

You shall not uncover the nakedness of the daughter of your father’s wife; she is your paternal half-sister. You shall not uncover her nakedness.

ἀσχημοσύνην ἀδελφῆς πατρός σου οὐκ ἀποκαλύψεις οἰκεία γὰρ πατρός σού ἐστιν

You shall not uncover the nakedness of your father’s sister, for she is your father’s own kin.

ἀσχημοσύνην ἀδελφοῦ τοῦ πατρός σου οὐκ ἀποκαλύψεις καὶ πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτοῦ οὐκ εἰσελεύσῃ συγγενὴς γάρ σού ἐστιν

You shall not uncover the indecency of your father’s brother, and you shall not go in to his wife, for she is your relative.

You shall not uncover the nakedness of your brother’s wife; it is your brother’s nakedness

17

You shall not uncover the nakedness of a woman and of her daughter; you shall not take the daughter of her son and the daughter of her daughter to uncover their nakedness, for they are relatives of yours; it is a wickedness.

18

γυναῖκα ἐπὶ ἀδελφῇ αὐτῆς οὐ λήμψῃ ἀντίζηλον ἀποκαλύψαι τὴν ἀσχημοσύνην αὐτῆς ἐπ ᾿ αὐτῇ ἔτι ζώσης αὐτῆς

And you shall not take a woman in addition to her sister, to be a rival, to uncover her shame over her, while she is yet living.

19

καὶ πρὸς γυναῖκα ἐν χωρισμῷ ἀκαθαρσίας αὐτῆς οὐ προσελεύσῃ ἀποκαλύψαι τὴν ἀσχημοσύνην αὐτῆς

And you shall not approach a woman in the separation of her uncleanness to uncover her shameful nakedness

20

καὶ πρὸς τὴν γυναῖκα τοῦ πλησίον σου οὐ δώσεις κοίτην σπέρματός σου ἐκμιανθῆναι πρὸς αὐτήν

And you shall not give the bed of your seed to the wife of your neighbor, to be defiled with her.

21

καὶ ἀπὸ τοῦ σπέρματός σου οὐ δώσεις λατρεύειν ἄρχοντι καὶ οὐ βεβηλώσεις τὸ ὄνομα τὸ ἅγιον ἐγὼ κύριος

And from your seed you shall not give to serve a ruler, and you shall not profane the holy name; I am the Lord.

22

καὶ μετὰ ἄρσενος οὐ κοιμηθήσῃ κοίτην γυναικός βδέλυγμα γάρ ἐστιν

And with a male you shall not lie the lying of a woman, for it is an abomination.

23

And with every four-footed animal you shall not give your bed for semen to be defiled with it, and a woman shall not stand before any four-footed animal to be mounted; for it is a detestable thing.

24

μὴ μιαίνεσθε ἐν πᾶσιν τούτοις ἐν πᾶσι γὰρ τούτοις ἐμιάνθησαν τὰ ἔθνη ἃ ἐγὼ ἐξαποστέλλω πρὸ προσώπου ὑμῶν

Do not defile yourselves in all these things, for by all these things the nations were defiled, which I am sending away before your face.

25

καὶ ἐμιάνθη ἡ γῆ καὶ ἀνταπέδωκα ἀδικίαν αὐτοῖς δι᾿ αὐτήν καὶ προσώχθισεν ἡ γῆ τοῖς ἐγκαθημένοις ἐπ᾿ αὐτῆς

And the land was defiled, and I repaid them injustice because of it, and the land became angry with those who were settled upon it.

26

And you shall keep all my statutes and all my ordinances, and you shall do none of all these abominations, neither the native nor the sojourning proselyte among you

27

πάντα γὰρ τὰ βδελύγματα ταῦτα ἐποίησαν οἱ ἄνθρωποι τῆς γῆς οἱ ὄντες πρότεροι ὑμῶν καὶ ἐμιάνθη ἡ γῆ

For all these abominations the men of the land, who were before you, did, and the land was defiled

28

and so that the land may not loathe you, by your defiling it, just as it loathed the nations that were 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 all these abominations, the souls that do them shall be cut off from their people.

30

And you shall keep my ordinances, so that you do not do any of the statutes of the abominations that have been done before you, and you shall not be defiled by them, for I am the Lord your God.
