Leviticus 20:17-19
1599 Geneva Bible
17 Also the man that taketh his sister, his father’s daughter, or his mother’s daughter, and seeth her shame, and she seeth his shame, it is villainy: therefore they shall be cut off in the sight [a]of their people, because he that uncovered his sister’s shame, he shall bear his iniquity.
18 (A)The man also that lieth with a woman having her [b]disease, and uncovereth her shame, and openeth her fountain, and she open the fountain of her blood, they shall be even both cut off from among their people.
19 Moreover, thou shalt not uncover the shame of thy mother’s sister, (B)nor of thy father’s sister: because he hath uncovered his [c]kin, they shall bear their iniquity.
