Leviticus 19:26-31

Avoiding Pagan Practices

26
You shall not eat with blood. You shall not divine nor observe dreams.
27
Nor shall you cut your hair roundwise: nor shave your beard.
28
You shall not make any cuttings in your flesh, for the dead: neither shall you make in yourselves any figures or marks. I am the Lord.
29
Make not thy daughter a common strumpet, lest the land be defiled, and filled with wickedness.
30
Keep ye my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary. I am the Lord.
31
Go not aside after wizards: neither ask any thing of soothsayers, to be defiled by them. I am the Lord your God.
