Leviticus 19:20-37

²⁰If a man slepith with a womman by fleischly knowyng of seed, which womman is an `hand maide, ye, a noble womman of kyn, and netheles is not ayenbouyt bi prijs, nethir rewardid with fredom, bothe schulen be betun, and thei schulen not die, for sche was not fre.

²¹Sotheli the man for his trespas schal offre a ram to the Lord, at the dore of the tabernacle of witnessyng;

²²and the preest schal preye for hym, and for his trespas, bifor the Lord; and the Lord schal be merciful to hym, and the synne schal be foryouun.

²³Whanne ye han entrid in to the lond of biheest, and han plauntid therynne appil trees, ye schulen do awei the firste flouris; the applis whiche tho trees bryngen forth, schulen be vncleene to you, nethir ye schulen ete of tho.

²⁴Forsothe in the fourthe yeer al the fruyt of tho trees schal be `halewid preiseful to the Lord;

²⁵forsothe in the fifthe yeer ye schulen ete fruytis, and schulen gadere applis, whiche tho trees bryngen forth; Y am youre Lord God.

²⁶Ye schulen not ete fleisch with blood. Ye schulen not make veyn diuynyng, nether ye schulen kepe dremes;

²⁷nether ye schulen clippe the heer in round, nether ye schulen schaue the beerd;

²⁸and on deed men ye schulen not kitte youre fleischis, nether ye schulen make to you ony fyguris, ether markis in youre fleisch; Y am the Lord.

²⁹Sette thou not thi douytir to do leccherie for hire, and the lond be defoulid, and be fillid with synne.

³⁰Kepe ye my sabatis, and drede ye my seyntuarie; Y `am the Lord.

³¹Bowe ye not to astronomyers, nether axe ye ony thing of fals dyuynours, that ye be defoulid bi hem; Y am youre Lord God.

³²Rise thou bifor an hoor heed, and onoure thou the persoone of an eld man, and drede thou thi Lord God; Y am the Lord.

³³If a comelyng enhabitith in youre lond, and dwellith among you, dispise ye not hym,

³⁴but be he among you as a man borun in the lond; and ye schulen loue hym as you silf, for also ye weren comelyngis in the lond of Egipt; Y am youre Lord God.

³⁵Nyle ye do ony wickid thing in doom, in reule, in weiyte, and in mesure; the balance be iust,

³⁶and the weiytis be euene, the buschel be iust, and the sextarie be euene; Y am youre Lord God, that ladde you out of the lond of Egipt.

³⁷Kepe ye alle myn heestis, and alle domes, and do ye tho; Y am the Lord.
