ગુજરાતીપુનર્નિયમ ૨૩:૧૮
સ્ત્રી અથવા પુરુષ વેશ્યાની કમાણીને માનતા ઉતારવા માટે યહોવાહ તમારા ઈશ્વરના ઘરમાં લાવવા નહિ; કારણ કે એ બન્ને કમાણીને યહોવાહ તમારા ઈશ્વર ધિક્કારે છે.
हिन्दीव्यवस्थाविवरण २३:१८
तू वेश्यापन की कमाई या कुत्ते की कमाई किसी मन्नत को पूरी करने के लिये अपने परमेश्वर यहोवा के घर में न लाना; क्योंकि तेरे परमेश्वर यहोवा के समीप ये दोनों की दोनों कमाई घृणित कर्म है।
