Niewiasta, która by przystąpiła do jakiego bydlęcia, aby z niem obcowała, zabijesz niewiastę i bydlę; śmiercią umrą, krew ich będzie na nich.
Jesliby też jaka niewiasta podała się w złączenie przeciw przyrodzeniu bestyjej którejkolwiek, tedy i niewiastę i bestyją zamordujecie, abowiem są winni śmierci.
Również kobietę, która się zbliży do jakiegokolwiek bydlęcia, aby z nim obcować zabijcie kobietę i bydlę; będą wydani na śmierć, ich krew jest na nich.

Jeśli kobieta zbliża się do jakiegoś zwierzęcia, aby się z nim położyć, zabijesz kobietę i zwierzę. Poniosą śmierć, ich krew będzie na nich.
Kobietę, która zbliży się do jakiegoś zwierzęcia, aby się z nim parzyć, zabijesz, zarówno kobietę jak i zwierzę to także; oboje poniosą śmierć i krew ich spadnie na nich.
Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
And if a woman: We are assured by Herodotus - in Euterp that the abominations here referred to existed among the Egyptians, and even formed part of their superstitious religious system, and we have reason to believe that they were not uncommon among the Canaanites. - See note on Leviticus 18:24, Leviticus 18:25. Need we wonder then, that God should have made laws of this nature, and appointed the punishment of death for these crimes? This one observation will account for many of those strange prohibitions which we find in the Mosaic law.
and the beast: Exodus 19:13, Exodus 21:28, Exodus 21:32, Hebrews 12:20
Reciprocal: Exodus 22:19 - General Leviticus 17:4 - be cut off Leviticus 18:23 - any beast Leviticus 20:9 - his blood Leviticus 24:15 - bear his sin 2 Samuel 1:16 - Thy blood
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And if a woman approach unto any beast, and lie down thereto,.... In order that the beast may lie with her, and solicit it to commit such an action with her, see Leviticus 18:23;
thou shall kill the woman and the beast: the woman by stoning, and the beast with clubs, as the Targum of Jonathan; and this for the same reasons as before, as well as to prevent monstrous births:
they shall surely be put to death; both the one and the other, and not spared:
their blood [shall be] upon them; they are guilty of a capital crime, a crime which deserves death; this must be understood of the man that lies with a beast, and of the woman; for as for the beast itself, as it is not capable of sinning, so not of guilt, in a proper sense.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Leviticus 20:16. If a woman approach unto any beast — We have the authority of one of the most eminent historians in the world, Herodotus, to say that this was a crime not unknown in Egypt; yea, that a case of this nature actually took place while he was there. ÎγενεÏο δ' εν ÏÏÍ Î½Î¿ μÏÍ ÏÎ¿Ï ÏÏÍ ÎµÏ' ÎµÎ¼ÎµÏ ÏÎ¿Ï Ïο Ïο ÏεÏαÏ, ÎÏ Î½Î±Î¹ÎºÎ¹ ΤÏÎ±Î³Î¿Ï ÎµÎ¼Î¹ÏγεÏο αναÏανδον. Î¤Î¿Ï Ïο ÎµÏ ÎµÏιδειξιν ανθÏÏÏÏν αÏικεÏο. - Herod. in Euterp., p. 108. Edit. Gale, Lond. 1679.
"In this district, within my own recollection, this portentous business took place: a goat coupled so publicly with a woman that every person knew it," c. After this, need we wonder that God should have made laws of this nature, when it appears these abominations were not only practised among the Egyptians, but were parts of a superstitious religious system? This one observation will account for many of those strange prohibitions which we find in the Mosaic law others, the reasons of which are not so plain, we should see the propriety of equally, had we ampler historic records of the customs that existed in that country.
