Leviticus 18:9

[Your sister]
You shall not uncover your sister's nakedness (you shall not have sexual relations with your sister)
– whether she is your father's daughter or your mother's daughter, born at home or away.
[This is thematically related to verse 11 – incest between siblings is forbidden. The prohibition applies to a sister in every conceivable way, previous marriage, outside of marriage, etc.]
