Leviticus 20:17-19

Expanded Bible

¹⁷ “‘It is shameful for a brother to ·marry [^Ltake] his sister, the daughter of either his father or his mother, and ·to have sexual relations with her [^Lhe sees her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness]. In front of everyone they must both be cut off from their people. The man has ·shamed [^Lexposed/revealed the nakedness of] his sister, and he is guilty of sin [18:9].

¹⁸ “‘If a man ·has sexual relations [^Llies] with a woman during her monthly period, both the woman and the man must be cut off from their people. They sinned because ·they showed the source of her blood [^Lhe uncovered her fountain and she has revealed the fountain of her blood; 18:19].

¹⁹ “‘Do not ·have sexual relations with [^Luncover the nakedness of] your mother’s sister or your father’s sister, because that would ·shame a close relative [^Lexpose one’s own flesh]. Both of you are guilty of this sin [18:12–13].
