19 And thou shalt not approach a woman in the separation of her uncleanness to uncover her nakedness.

And if a man shall lie with a woman in her infirmity, and uncover her nakedness, her flux doth he lay bare, and she hath uncovered the fountain of her blood; and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.
-- he hath not eaten upon the mountains, nor lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, neither hath defiled his neighbour's wife, nor come near to a woman in her separation,
in thee have they discovered their fathers' nakedness; in thee have they humbled her that was unclean in her separation.
