18 If a man doeth fleshly knowing with a woman in the flowing of blood of the month, and showeth her filth(hood), and she openeth the well of her blood, both they shall be slain from the midst of their people.

19 Thou shalt not discover the filth(hood) of thy mother’s sister, and of thy father’s sister; he, that doeth this, shall make naked the shame of his flesh, and both they shall bear their wickedness. (Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy mother’s sister, or of thy father’s sister; he, who doeth this, shall make naked his own kin’s flesh, and they both shall bear their wickedness.)

20 He that doeth fleshly knowing with the wife of his father’s brother, either of his mother’s brother, and showeth the filth(hood) of his kin, both they shall bear their sin, [and] they shall die without free children. (He who doeth fleshly knowing with the wife of his father’s brother, or the wife of his mother’s brother, and uncovereth the nakedness of his kin, they both shall bear their sin, and they shall die without any children.)
