Leviticus 18:27-29

27 for the people who were in the land before you have done all these abominations,[a] and the land has become unclean. 28 So do not make the land vomit you out because you defile it[b] just as it has vomited out the nations[c] that were before you. 29 For if anyone does any of these abominations, that person who does them will be cut off from the midst of the people.[d]
