Leviticus 18:17

[Woman and her daughter]
You shall not uncover the nakedness of a woman
and her daughter (you shall not have sexual relations with a mother and her daughter);
you shall not uncover the nakedness of her granddaughter or her great-granddaughter,
for they are close relatives
– it is depraved (indecent, an abomination – Hebr. zimah) [Lev. 19:29; 20:14].
[Hebr. zimah comes from zamam, which means to think and fantasize; see also verses 22 and 23.]
