Imamat 18:9

18:9 You must not have sexual intercourse with your sister, whether she is your father’s daughter or your mother’s daughter, ¹  whether she is born in the same household or born outside it; ²  you must not have sexual intercourse with either of them. ³ 

Kejadian 20:12

20:12 What’s more, ⁴  she is indeed my sister, my father’s daughter, but not my mother’s daughter. She became my wife.

Ulangan 27:22

27:22 ‘Cursed is the one who has sexual relations with his sister, the daughter of either his father or mother.’ Then all the people will say, ‘Amen!’

Ulangan 27:2

27:2 When you cross the Jordan River ⁵  to the land the Lord your God is giving you, you must erect great stones and cover ⁶  them with plaster.

1 Samuel 13:12

13:12 I thought, ⁷  ‘Now the Philistines will come down on me at Gilgal and I have not sought the Lord’s favor.’ So I felt obligated ⁸  to offer the burnt offering.”

Yehezkiel 22:11

22:11 One ⁹  commits an abominable act with his neighbor’s wife; another obscenely defiles his daughter-in-law; another violates ¹⁰  his sister – his father’s daughter ¹¹  – within you.

[18:9]  ¹ tn Heb “the daughter of your father or the daughter of your mother.”

[18:9]  ² tn Heb “born of house or born of outside.” CEV interprets as “whether you grew up together or not” (cf. also TEV, NLT).

[18:9]  ³ tc Several medieval Hebrew mss, Smr, LXX, and Syriac have “her nakedness” rather than “their nakedness,” thus agreeing with singular “sister” at the beginning of the verse.

[18:9]  tn For a smooth English translation “either of” was added.

[20:12]  ⁴ tn Heb “but also.”

[27:2]  ⁵ tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text but has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[27:2]  ⁶ tn Heb “plaster” (so KJV, ASV; likewise in v. 4). In the translation “cover” has been used for stylistic reasons.

[13:12]  ⁷ tn Heb “said.”

[13:12]  ⁸ tn Or “I forced myself” (so KJV, NASB, NRSV, CEV); NAB “So in my anxiety I offered”; NIV “I felt compelled.”

[22:11]  ⁹ tn Heb “a man.”

[22:11]  ¹⁰ tn The verb is the same one used in verse 10b and suggests forcible sexual violation of the woman.

[22:11]  ¹¹ sn Sexual relations with one’s half-sister may be primarily in view here. See Lev 18:9; 20:17.
