Elberfelder Bibel (ELB)Deutsch
Und wenn ein Mann seine Schwester nimmt, die Tochter seines Vaters oder die Tochter seiner Mutter, und er sieht ihre Blöße, und sie sieht seine Blöße: das ist eine Schande, und sie sollen ausgerottet werden vor den Augen der Kinder ihres Volkes; er hat die Blöße seiner Schwester aufgedeckt, er soll seine Ungerechtigkeit tragen.
Reina-Valera (RV)Español
Y cualquiera que tomare á su hermana, hija de su padre ó hija de su madre, y viere su desnudez, y ella viere la suya, cosa es execrable; por tanto serán muertos á ojos de los hijos de su pueblo: descubrió la desnudez de su hermana; su pecado llevará.
Bíblia Livre (BL)Português
Qualquer um que tomar a sua irmã, filha de seu pai ou filha de sua mãe, e vir sua nudez, e ela vir a sua, coisa é execrável; portanto serão mortos à vista dos filhos de seu povo: revelou a nudez de sua irmã; levará consigo o seu pecado.
Nova Versão (NVA)Português
Se um homem manter relação com sua irmã, mesmo se for filha de seu pai ou filha de sua mãe —mantendo relação com ela e ela com ele, é uma coisa vergonhosa. Eles devem ser expulsos da presença do povo, porque ele teve relações sexuais com sua irmã. Ele levará a culpa.
