Leviticus 20:18-20
New English Translation
18 If a man goes to bed[a] with a menstruating woman and uncovers her nakedness, he has laid bare her fountain of blood and she has exposed the fountain of her blood, so both of them[b] must be cut off from the midst of their people. 19 You must not expose the nakedness of your mother’s sister or your father’s sister, for such a person has exposed his own close relative.[c] They must bear their punishment for iniquity.[d] 20 If a man goes to bed[e] with his aunt, he has exposed his uncle’s nakedness; they must bear responsibility for their sin, they will die childless.
