Leviticus 18:24-28

Expanded Bible

²⁴ “‘Don’t make yourself unclean by any of these wrong things. I am forcing nations out of their countries because they did these sins, and I am giving their land to you. ²⁵ The land has become unclean [^Cin a ritual sense], and I punished it for its sins, so the land is ·throwing [vomiting] out those people who live there.

²⁶ “‘You must ·obey [guard; keep] my ·laws [statutes; ordinances; requirements] and ·rules [regulations], and you must not do any of these ·hateful sins [abominations]. ·These rules [^LThey] are for ·the citizens of Israel and for the people who live with you [natives and resident aliens]. ²⁷ The people who lived in the land before you did all these ·hateful [abominable] things and made the land unclean. ²⁸ If you do these things, you will also make the land unclean, and it will ·throw [vomit] you out as it ·threw [vomited] out the nations before you.
