וְאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר יִקַּח אֶת-אֵשֶׁת אָחִיו נִדָּה הִוא עֶרְוַת אָחִיו גִּלָּה עֲרִירִים יִֽהְיֽוּ׃
And if a man shall take his brother's wife, it is an unclean thing: he hath uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless.

Thou shalt not uncover the nakedness of thy brother's wife: it is thy brother's nakedness.
