Leviticus 18:26-30

English Standard Version

²⁶ But ^(A)you shall keep my statutes and my rules and do none of these abominations, either the ^(B)native or the stranger who sojourns among you ²⁷ (for the people of the land, who were before you, did all of these abominations, so that the land became unclean), ²⁸ lest the land vomit you out when you make it unclean, as it vomited out the nation that was before you. ²⁹ For everyone who does any of these abominations, the persons who do them shall be cut off from among their people. ^30 (C)So keep my charge never to practice ^(D)any of these abominable customs that were practiced before you, and never to make yourselves unclean by them: ^(E)I am the Lord your God.”
