That is detestible. 23: "'You shall not lie with any animal to defile yourself with it; neither shall any woman give herself to an animal, to lie down with it: it is a perversion. 24: "'Don't defile yourselves in any of these things: for in all these the nations which I am casting out before you were defiled. 25: The land was defiled: therefore I punished its iniquity, and the land vomitted out her inhabitants. 26: You therefore shall keep my statutes and my ordinances, and shall not do any of these abominations; neither the native-born, nor the stranger who sojourns among you; 27: (for all these abominations have the men of the land done, that were before you, and the land became defiled); 28: that the land not vomit you out also, when you defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you. 29: "'For whoever shall do any of these abominations, even the souls that do them shall be cut off from among their people. 30: Therefore you shall keep my charge, that you do not practice any of these abominable customs, which were practiced before you, and that you do not defile yourselves with them: I am Yahweh your God.'"
