[The Pentateuch]

¶ The .xviij. Chapter.

And the Lord talked with Moses saying: speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I am the Lord your God Wherefore after the doings of the land of Egypt wherein ye dwelt, see that ye do not: nether after the doings of the land of Canaan, whether I will bring you, nether walk ye in their ordinances, but do after my judgment tes, and keep mine ordinances, to walk therein: for I am the Lord your God. Keep therefore mine ordinances, and my judgements which if a man do he shall live thereby: for I am the Lord.

ANd the Lorde talked with Moses saynge: speake vnto the childern of Israel, ād saye vnto them, I am the Lorde youre God Wherfore after the doynges of the land of Egipte wherein ye dwelt, se that ye doo not: nether after the doynges of the lande of Canaan, whether I will bringe you, nether walke ye in their ordinaunces, but doo after my iudgemē tes, and kepe myne ordynaunces, to walke therein: for I am the Lorde youre God. Kepe therfore myne ordinaunces, ād my iudgemētes whiche yf a man doo he shall lyue thereby: for I am the Lorde.

See that ye goo to none of your nighest kin red for to uncover their secrets, for I am the Lord. The secrets of thy father and thy mother, see thou unheal not: she is thy mother, therefore shalt thou not discover her secrets. The secrets of thy fathers wife shalt thou not discover, for they are thy fathers secrets. Thou shalt not discover the privity of thy sister, the daughter of thy father or of thy mother: whether ⟨p. XXXIII⟩she be borne at home or without. Thou shalt not discover the secrets of thy sons daughter or thy daughters daughter, for that is thine own privity: Thou shalt not discover the secrets of thy fathers wives daughter, which she bare to thy father, for she is thy sister: thou shalt therefore not discover her secrets. Thou shalt not uncover the secrets off thy fathers sister, for she is thy fathers next kin. Thou shalt not discover the secrets off thy mothers sister, for she is thy mothers next kin.
