1 The Lord told Moses
2 to say to the people of Israel, “I am the Lord your God.
3 Do not follow the practices of the people of Egypt, where you once lived, or of the people in the land of Canaan, where I am now taking you.
4 Obey my laws and do what I command. I am the Lord your God.
5 Follow the practices and the laws that I give you; you will save your life by doing so. I am the Lord.”
6 The Lord gave the following regulations. Do not have sexual intercourse with any of your relatives.
