20 2 They that give of their seed to Molech, must die. 6 They that have recourse to sorcerers. 10 The man that committeth adultery, 11 incest, or fornication with the kindred or affinity. 24 Israel a peculiar people to the Lord.

And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying,

Thou shalt say also to the children of Israel, (A)Whosoever he be of the children of Israel, or of the strangers that dwell in Israel, that giveth his children unto [a]Molech, he shall die the death, the people of the land shall stone him to death.

And I will [b]set my face against that man and cut him off from among his people, because he hath given his children unto Molech, for to defile my Sanctuary, and to pollute mine holy Name.
