Leviticus 20:19

NETBible

"‘Do not have sexual relations with the sister of either your mother or your father, for that would dishonour a close relative; both of you would be held responsible.

NASB ©

MSG ©

BBE ©

And you may not have sex connection with your mother’s sister or your father’s sister, for they are his near relations: their sin will be on them.

NRSV ©

You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister or of your father’s sister, for that is to lay bare one’s own flesh; they shall be subject to punishment.

NKJV ©

‘You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother’s sister nor of your father’s sister, for that would uncover his near of kin. They shall bear their guilt.
