Leviticus 20:15-17
Lexham English Bible
15 “‘As for[a] a man who has sexual relations[b] with an animal, he shall surely be put to death, and you must kill the animal. 16 As for[c] a woman who approaches any animal to copulate with it, you shall kill[d] the woman and the animal; they shall surely be put to death—their blood is on them.
17 “‘As for[e] a man who takes his sister, his father’s daughter or his mother’s daughter, and he sees her nakedness and she herself sees his nakedness, it is a disgrace, and they shall be cut off before[f] the eyes of their people;[g] he has exposed his sister’s nakedness—he must bear his guilt.
