Leviticus 18:28-30

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁸ lest the land vomit you out, when you defile it, as it vomited out the nation that was before you. ²⁹ For whoever shall do any of these abominations, the persons that do them shall be cut off from among their people. ³⁰ So keep my charge never to practice any of these abominable customs which were practiced before you, and never to defile yourselves by them: I am the Lord your God.”
