Do not have intercourse with your sister or your stepsister, whether or not she was brought up in the same house with you.

Do not have intercourse with a half sister; she, too, is your sister.

If a man marries his sister or half sister, they shall be publicly disgraced and driven out of the community. He has had intercourse with his sister and must suffer the consequences.

I took her body, cut it in pieces, and sent one piece to each of the twelve tribes of Israel. These people have committed an evil and immoral act among us.
