Leviticus 20:21-26 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

21. And if you marry your sister-in-law, neither of you will ever have any children.

22. Obey my laws and teachings. Or else the land I am giving you will become sick of you and throw you out.

23. The nations I am chasing out did these disgusting things, and I hated them for it, so don't follow their example.

24. I am the Lord your God, and I have promised you their land that is rich with milk and honey. I have chosen you to be different from other people.

25. That's why you must make a difference between animals and birds that I have said are clean and unclean—this will keep you from becoming disgusting to me.

26. I am the Lord, the holy God. You have been chosen to be my people, and so you must be holy too.
