Deuteronomy 12:1--25:19

These [are] the statutes
<02706>
and judgments
<04941>_,
which ye shall observe
<08104> (8799)
to do
<06213> (8800)
in the land
<0776>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of thy fathers
<01>
giveth
<05414> (8804)
thee to possess
<03423> (8800)
it, all the days
<03117>
that ye live
<02416>
upon the earth
<0127>_.
Ye shall utterly
<06> (8763)
destroy
<06> (8762)
all the places
<04725>_,
wherein the nations
<01471>
which
<0834>
ye shall possess
<03423> (8802)
served
<05647> (8804)
their gods
<0430>_,
upon the high
<07311> (8802)
mountains
<02022>_,
and upon the hills
<01389>_,
and under every green
<07488>
tree
<06086>_:
{possess: or, inherit}
And ye shall overthrow
<05422> (8765)
their altars
<04196>_,
and break
<07665> (8765)
their pillars
<04676>_,
and burn
<08313> (8799)
their groves
<0842>
with fire
<0784>_;
and ye shall hew down
<01438> (8762)
the graven images
<06456>
of their gods
<0430>_,
and destroy
<06> (8765)
the names
<08034>
of them out of that place
<04725>_.
{overthrow: Heb. break down}
Ye shall not do so
<06213> (8799)
unto the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_.
But unto the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)
out of all your tribes
<07626>
to put
<07760> (8800)
his name
<08034>
there, [even] unto his habitation
<07933>
shall ye seek
<01875> (8799)_,
and thither thou shalt come
<0935> (8804)_:
And thither ye shall bring
<0935> (8689)
your burnt offerings
<05930>_,
and your sacrifices
<02077>_,
and your tithes
<04643>_,
and heave offerings
<08641>
of your hand
<03027>_,
and your vows
<05088>_,
and your freewill offerings
<05071>_,
and the firstlings
<01062>
of your herds
<01241>
and of your flocks
<06629>_:
And there ye shall eat
<0398> (8804)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_,
and ye shall rejoice
<08055> (8804)
in all that ye put
<04916>
your hand
<03027>
unto, ye and your households
<01004>_,
wherein the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath blessed
<01288> (8765)
thee.
Ye shall not do
<06213> (8799)
after all [the things] that we do
<06213> (8802)
here this day
<03117>_,
every man
<0376>
whatsoever [is] right
<03477>
in his own eyes
<05869>_.
For ye are not as yet come
<0935> (8804)
to the rest
<04496>
and to the inheritance
<05159>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
you.
But [when] ye go over
<05674> (8804)
Jordan
<03383>_,
and dwell
<03427> (8804)
in the land
<0776>
which the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
giveth you to inherit
<05157> (8688)_,
and [when] he giveth you rest
<05117> (8689)
from all your enemies
<0341> (8802)
round about
<05439>_,
so that ye dwell
<03427> (8804)
in safety
<0983>_;
Then there shall be a place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)
to cause his name
<08034>
to dwell
<07931> (8763)
there; thither shall ye bring
<0935> (8686)
all that I command
<06680> (8764)
you; your burnt offerings
<05930>_,
and your sacrifices
<02077>_,
your tithes
<04643>_,
and the heave offering
<08641>
of your hand
<03027>_,
and all your choice
<04005>
vows
<05088>
which ye vow
<05087> (8799)
unto the LORD
<03068>_:
{your choice...: Heb. the choice of your vows}
And ye shall rejoice
<08055> (8804)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_,
ye, and your sons
<01121>_,
and your daughters
<01323>_,
and your menservants
<05650>_,
and your maidservants
<0519>_,
and the Levite
<03881>
that [is] within your gates
<08179>_;
forasmuch
<03588>
as he hath no part
<02506>
nor inheritance
<05159>
with you.
Take heed
<08104> (8734)
to thyself that thou offer
<05927> (8686)
not thy burnt offerings
<05930>
in every place
<04725>
that thou seest
<07200> (8799)_:
But in the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)
in one
<0259>
of thy tribes
<07626>_,
there thou shalt offer
<05927> (8686)
thy burnt offerings
<05930>_,
and there thou shalt do
<06213> (8799)
all that I command
<06680> (8764)
thee.
Notwithstanding thou mayest kill
<02076> (8799)
and eat
<0398> (8804)
flesh
<01320>
in all thy gates
<08179>_,
whatsoever thy soul
<05315>
lusteth after
<0185>_,
according to the blessing
<01293>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
which he hath given
<05414> (8804)
thee: the unclean
<02931>
and the clean
<02889>
may eat
<0398> (8799)
thereof, as of the roebuck
<06643>_,
and as of the hart
<0354>_.
Only ye shall not eat
<0398> (8799)
the blood
<01818>_;
ye shall pour
<08210> (8799)
it upon the earth
<0776>
as water
<04325>_.
Thou mayest
<03201> (8799)
not eat
<0398> (8800)
within thy gates
<08179>
the tithe
<04643>
of thy corn
<01715>_,
or of thy wine
<08492>_,
or of thy oil
<03323>_,
or the firstlings
<01062>
of thy herds
<01241>
or of thy flock
<06629>_,
nor any of thy vows
<05088>
which thou vowest
<05087> (8799)_,
nor thy freewill offerings
<05071>_,
or heave offering
<08641>
of thine hand
<03027>_:
But thou must eat
<0398> (8799)
them before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
in the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)_,
thou, and thy son
<01121>_,
and thy daughter
<01323>_,
and thy manservant
<05650>_,
and thy maidservant
<0519>_,
and the Levite
<03881>
that [is] within thy gates
<08179>_:
and thou shalt rejoice
<08055> (8804)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
in all that thou puttest
<04916>
thine hands
<03027>
unto.
Take heed
<08104> (8734)
to thyself that thou forsake
<05800> (8799)
not the Levite
<03881>
as long as thou livest
<03117>
upon the earth
<0127>_.
{as long...: Heb. all thy days}
When the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
shall enlarge
<07337> (8686)
thy border
<01366>_,
as he hath promised
<01696> (8765)
thee, and thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)_,
I will eat
<0398> (8799)
flesh
<01320>_,
because thy soul
<05315>
longeth
<0183> (8762)
to eat
<0398> (8800)
flesh
<01320>_;
thou mayest eat
<0398> (8799)
flesh
<01320>_,
whatsoever thy soul
<05315>
lusteth after
<0185>_.
If the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath chosen
<0977> (8799)
to put
<07760> (8800)
his name
<08034>
there be too far
<07368> (8799)
from thee, then thou shalt kill
<02076> (8804)
of thy herd
<01241>
and of thy flock
<06629>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
hath given
<05414> (8804)
thee, as I have commanded
<06680> (8765)
thee, and thou shalt eat
<0398> (8804)
in thy gates
<08179>
whatsoever thy soul
<05315>
lusteth after
<0185>_.
Even as the roebuck
<06643>
and the hart
<0354>
is eaten
<0398> (8735)_,
so thou shalt eat
<0398> (8799)
them: the unclean
<02931>
and the clean
<02889>
shall eat
<0398> (8799)
[of] them alike
<03162>_.
Only be sure
<02388> (8798)
that thou eat
<0398> (8800)
not the blood
<01818>_:
for the blood
<01818>
[is] the life
<05315>_;
and thou mayest not eat
<0398> (8799)
the life
<05315>
with the flesh
<01320>_.
{be...: Heb. be strong}
Thou shalt not eat
<0398> (8799)
it; thou shalt pour
<08210> (8799)
it upon the earth
<0776>
as water
<04325>_.
Thou shalt not eat
<0398> (8799)
it; that it may go well
<03190> (8799)
with thee, and with thy children
<01121>
after
<0310>
thee, when thou shalt do
<06213> (8799)
[that which is] right
<03477>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
Only thy holy things
<06944>
which thou hast, and thy vows
<05088>_,
thou shalt take
<05375> (8799)_,
and go
<0935> (8804)
unto the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)_:
And thou shalt offer
<06213> (8804)
thy burnt offerings
<05930>_,
the flesh
<01320>
and the blood
<01818>_,
upon the altar
<04196>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_:
and the blood
<01818>
of thy sacrifices
<02077>
shall be poured out
<08210> (8735)
upon the altar
<04196>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
and thou shalt eat
<0398> (8799)
the flesh
<01320>_.
Observe
<08104> (8798)
and hear
<08085> (8804)
all these words
<01697>
which I command
<06680> (8764)
thee, that it may go well
<03190> (8799)
with thee, and with thy children
<01121>
after
<0310>
thee for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_,
when thou doest
<06213> (8799)
[that which is] good
<02896>
and right
<03477>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_.
When the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
shall cut off
<03772> (8686)
the nations
<01471>
from before
<06440>
thee, whither thou goest
<0935> (8802)
to possess
<03423> (8800)
them, and thou succeedest
<03423> (8804)
them, and dwellest
<03427> (8804)
in their land
<0776>_;
{succeedest...: Heb. inheritest, or, possessest them}
Take heed
<08104> (8734)
to thyself that thou be not snared
<05367> (8735)
by following
<0310>
them, after
<0310>
that they be destroyed
<08045> (8736)
from before
<06440>
thee; and that thou enquire
<01875> (8799)
not after their gods
<0430>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
How did these nations
<01471>
serve
<05647> (8799)
their gods
<0430>_?
even so will I do
<06213> (8799)
likewise
<01571>_.
{by...: Heb. after them}
Thou shalt not do
<06213> (8799)
so unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_:
for every abomination
<08441>
to the LORD
<03068>_,
which he hateth
<08130> (8804)_,
have they done
<06213> (8804)
unto their gods
<0430>_;
for even their sons
<01121>
and their daughters
<01323>
they have burnt
<08313> (8799)
in the fire
<0784>
to their gods
<0430>_.
{to the: Heb. of the}
What thing
<01697>
soever I command
<06680> (8764)
you, observe
<08104> (8799)
to do
<06213> (8800)
it: thou shalt not add
<03254> (8686)
thereto, nor diminish
<01639> (8799)
from it.
If there arise
<06965> (8799)
among
<07130>
you a prophet
<05030>_,
or a dreamer
<02492> (8802)
of dreams
<02472>_,
and giveth
<05414> (8804)
thee a sign
<0226>
or a wonder
<04159>_,
And the sign
<0226>
or the wonder
<04159>
come to pass
<0935> (8804)_,
whereof he spake
<01696> (8765)
unto thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Let us go
<03212> (8799)
after
<0310>
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
which thou hast not known
<03045> (8804)_,
and let us serve
<05647> (8714)
them;
Thou shalt not hearken
<08085> (8799)
unto the words
<01697>
of that prophet
<05030>_,
or that dreamer
<02492> (8802)
of dreams
<02472>_:
for the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
proveth
<05254> (8764)
you, to know
<03045> (8800)
whether ye
<03426>
love
<0157> (8802)
the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
with all your heart
<03824>
and with all your soul
<05315>_.
Ye shall walk
<03212> (8799)
after
<0310>
the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_,
and fear
<03372> (8799)
him, and keep
<08104> (8799)
his commandments
<04687>_,
and obey
<08085> (8799)
his voice
<06963>_,
and ye shall serve
<05647> (8799)
him, and cleave
<01692> (8799)
unto him.
And that prophet
<05030>_,
or that dreamer
<02492> (8802)
of dreams
<02472>_,
shall be put to death
<04191> (8714)_;
because he hath spoken
<01696> (8765)
to turn
<05627>
[you] away from the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_,
which brought you out
<03318> (8688)
of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and redeemed
<06299> (8802)
you out of the house
<01004>
of bondage
<05650>_,
to thrust
<05080> (8687)
thee out of the way
<01870>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
commanded
<06680> (8765)
thee to walk in
<03212> (8800)_.
So shalt thou put
<01197> (0)
the evil
<07451>
away
<01197> (8765)
from the midst
<07130>
of thee. {to turn...: Heb. revolt against the LORD}
If thy brother
<0251>_,
the son
<01121>
of thy mother
<0517>_,
or thy son
<01121>_,
or thy daughter
<01323>_,
or the wife
<0802>
of thy bosom
<02436>_,
or thy friend
<07453>_,
which [is] as thine own soul
<05315>_,
entice
<05496> (8686)
thee secretly
<05643>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Let us go
<03212> (8799)
and serve
<05647> (8799)
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
which thou hast not known
<03045> (8804)_,
thou, nor thy fathers
<01>_;
[Namely], of the gods
<0430>
of the people
<05971>
which [are] round about
<05439>
you, nigh
<07138>
unto thee, or far off
<07350>
from thee, from the [one] end
<07097>
of the earth
<0776>
even unto the [other] end
<07097>
of the earth
<0776>_;
Thou shalt not consent
<014> (8799)
unto him, nor hearken
<08085> (8799)
unto him; neither shall thine eye
<05869>
pity
<02347> (8799)
him, neither shalt thou spare
<02550> (8799)_,
neither shalt thou conceal
<03680> (8762)
him:
But thou shalt surely
<02026> (8800)
kill
<02026> (8799)
him; thine hand
<03027>
shall be first
<07223>
upon him to put him to death
<04191> (8687)_,
and afterwards
<0314>
the hand
<03027>
of all the people
<05971>_.
And thou shalt stone
<05619> (8804)
him with stones
<068>_,
that he die
<04191> (8804)_;
because he hath sought
<01245> (8765)
to thrust thee away
<05080> (8687)
from the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
which brought thee out
<03318> (8688)
of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
from the house
<01004>
of bondage
<05650>_.
{bondage: Heb. bondmen}
And all Israel
<03478>
shall hear
<08085> (8799)_,
and fear
<03372> (8799)_,
and shall do
<06213> (8800)
no more
<03254> (8686)
any
<01697>
such wickedness
<07451>
as this is among
<07130>
you.
If thou shalt hear
<08085> (8799)
[say] in one
<0259>
of thy cities
<05892>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath given
<05414> (8802)
thee to dwell
<03427> (8800)
there, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
[Certain] men
<0582>_,
the children
<01121>
of Belial
<01100>_,
are gone out
<03318> (8804)
from among
<07130>
you, and have withdrawn
<05080> (8686)
the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of their city
<05892>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Let us go
<03212> (8799)
and serve
<05647> (8799)
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
which ye have not known
<03045> (8804)_;
{the children...: or, naughty men}
Then shalt thou enquire
<01875> (8804)_,
and make search
<02713> (8804)_,
and ask
<07592> (8804)
diligently
<03190> (8687)_;
and, behold, [if it be] truth
<0571>_,
[and] the thing
<01697>
certain
<03559> (8737)_,
[that] such
<02063>
abomination
<08441>
is wrought
<06213> (8738)
among
<07130>
you;
Thou shalt surely
<05221> (8687)
smite
<05221> (8686)
the inhabitants
<03427> (8802)
of that city
<05892>
with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_,
destroying it utterly
<02763> (8685)_,
and all that [is] therein, and the cattle
<0929>
thereof, with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_.
And thou shalt gather
<06908> (8799)
all the spoil
<07998>
of it into the midst
<08432>
of the street
<07339>
thereof, and shalt burn
<08313> (8804)
with fire
<0784>
the city
<05892>_,
and all the spoil
<07998>
thereof every whit
<03632>_,
for the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_:
and it shall be an heap
<08510>
for ever
<05769>_;
it shall not be built again
<01129> (8735)_.
And there shall cleave
<01692> (8799)
nought
<03972>
of the cursed thing
<02764>
to thine hand
<03027>_:
that the LORD
<03068>
may turn
<07725> (8799)
from the fierceness
<02740>
of his anger
<0639>_,
and shew
<05414> (8804)
thee mercy
<07356>_,
and have compassion
<07355> (8765)
upon thee, and multiply
<07235> (8689)
thee, as he hath sworn
<07650> (8738)
unto thy fathers
<01>_;
{cursed: or, devoted}
When thou shalt hearken
<08085> (8799)
to the voice
<06963>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
to keep
<08104> (8800)
all his commandments
<04687>
which I command
<06680> (8764)
thee this day
<03117>_,
to do
<06213> (8800)
[that which is] right
<03477>
in the eyes
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_.
Ye [are] the children
<01121>
of the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_:
ye shall not cut
<01413> (8704)
yourselves, nor make
<07760> (8799)
any baldness
<07144>
between your eyes
<05869>
for the dead
<04191> (8801)_.
For thou [art] an holy
<06918>
people
<05971>
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
and the LORD
<03068>
hath chosen
<0977> (8804)
thee to be a peculiar
<05459>
people
<05971>
unto himself, above all the nations
<05971>
that [are] upon
<06440>
the earth
<0127>_.
Thou shalt not eat
<0398> (8799)
any abominable thing
<08441>_.
These [are] the beasts
<0929>
which ye shall eat
<0398> (8799)_:
the ox
<07794>_,
the sheep
<07716> <03775>_,
and the goat
<05795>_,
The hart
<0354>_,
and the roebuck
<06643>_,
and the fallow deer
<03180>_,
and the wild goat
<0689>_,
and the pygarg
<01788>_,
and the wild ox
<08377>_,
and the chamois
<02169>_.
{pygarg: or bison: Heb. dishon}
And every beast
<0929>
that parteth
<06536> (8688)
the hoof
<06541>_,
and cleaveth
<08157>
the cleft
<08156> (8802)
into two
<08147>
claws
<06541>_,
[and] cheweth
<05927> (8688)
the cud
<01625>
among the beasts
<0929>_,
that ye shall eat
<0398> (8799)_.
Nevertheless these ye shall not eat
<0398> (8799)
of them that chew
<05927> (8688)
the cud
<01625>_,
or of them that divide
<06536> (8688)
the cloven
<08156> (8803)
hoof
<06541>_;
[as] the camel
<01581>_,
and the hare
<0768>_,
and the coney
<08227>_:
for they chew
<05927> (8688)
the cud
<01625>_,
but divide
<06536> (8689)
not the hoof
<06541>_;
[therefore] they [are] unclean
<02931>
unto you.
And the swine
<02386>_,
because it divideth
<06536> (8688)
the hoof
<06541>_,
yet cheweth not the cud
<01625>_,
it [is] unclean
<02931>
unto you: ye shall not eat
<0398> (8799)
of their flesh
<01320>_,
nor touch
<05060> (8799)
their dead carcase
<05038>_.
These ye shall eat
<0398> (8799)
of all that [are] in the waters
<04325>_:
all that have fins
<05579>
and scales
<07193>
shall ye eat
<0398> (8799)_:
And whatsoever hath not fins
<05579>
and scales
<07193>
ye may not eat
<0398> (8799)_;
it [is] unclean
<02931>
unto you.
[Of] all clean
<02889>
birds
<06833>
ye shall eat
<0398> (8799)_.
But these [are they] of which ye shall not eat
<0398> (8799)_:
the eagle
<05404>_,
and the ossifrage
<06538>_,
and the ospray
<05822>_,
And the glede
<07201>_,
and the kite
<0344>_,
and the vulture
<01772>
after his kind
<04327>_,
And every raven
<06158>
after his kind
<04327>_,
And the owl
<01323> <03284>_,
and the night hawk
<08464>_,
and the cuckow
<07828>_,
and the hawk
<05322>
after his kind
<04327>_,
The little owl
<03563>_,
and the great owl
<03244>_,
and the swan
<08580>_,
And the pelican
<06893>_,
and the gier eagle
<07360>_,
and the cormorant
<07994>_,
And the stork
<02624>_,
and the heron
<0601>
after her kind
<04327>_,
and the lapwing
<01744>_,
and the bat
<05847>_.
And every creeping thing
<08318>
that flieth
<05775>
[is] unclean
<02931>
unto you: they shall not be eaten
<0398> (8735)_.
[But of] all clean
<02889>
fowls
<05775>
ye may eat
<0398> (8799)_.
Ye shall not eat
<0398> (8799)
[of] any thing that dieth of itself
<05038>_:
thou shalt give
<05414> (8799)
it unto the stranger
<01616>
that [is] in thy gates
<08179>_,
that he may eat
<0398> (8804)
it; or thou mayest sell
<04376> (8800)
it unto an alien
<05237>_:
for thou [art] an holy
<06918>
people
<05971>
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_.
Thou shalt not seethe
<01310> (8762)
a kid
<01423>
in his mother's
<0517>
milk
<02461>_.
Thou shalt truly
<06237> (8763)
tithe
<06237> (8762)
all the increase
<08393>
of thy seed
<02233>_,
that the field
<07704>
bringeth forth
<03318> (8802)
year
<08141>
by year
<08141>_.
And thou shalt eat
<0398> (8804)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
in the place
<04725>
which he shall choose
<0977> (8799)
to place
<07931> (8763)
his name
<08034>
there, the tithe
<04643>
of thy corn
<01715>_,
of thy wine
<08492>_,
and of thine oil
<03323>_,
and the firstlings
<01062>
of thy herds
<01241>
and of thy flocks
<06629>_;
that thou mayest learn
<03925> (8799)
to fear
<03372> (8800)
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
always
<03117>_.
And if the way
<01870>
be too long
<07235> (8799)
for thee, so that
<03588>
thou art not able
<03201> (8799)
to carry
<05375> (8800)
it; [or] if the place
<04725>
be too far
<07368> (8799)
from thee, which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)
to set
<07760> (8800)
his name
<08034>
there, when the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath blessed
<01288> (8762)
thee:
Then shalt thou turn
<05414> (8804)
[it] into money
<03701>_,
and bind up
<06696> (8804)
the money
<03701>
in thine hand
<03027>_,
and shalt go
<01980> (8804)
unto the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)_:
And thou shalt bestow
<05414> (8804)
that money
<03701>
for whatsoever thy soul
<05315>
lusteth after
<0183> (8762)_,
for oxen
<01241>_,
or for sheep
<06629>_,
or for wine
<03196>_,
or for strong drink
<07941>_,
or for whatsoever thy soul
<05315>
desireth
<07592> (8799)_:
and thou shalt eat
<0398> (8804)
there before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
and thou shalt rejoice
<08055> (8804)_,
thou, and thine household
<01004>_,
{desireth: Heb. asketh of thee}
And the Levite
<03881>
that [is] within thy gates
<08179>_;
thou shalt not forsake
<05800> (8799)
him; for he hath no part
<02506>
nor inheritance
<05159>
with thee.
At the end
<07097>
of three
<07969>
years
<08141>
thou shalt bring forth
<03318> (8686)
all the tithe
<04643>
of thine increase
<08393>
the same year
<08141>_,
and shalt lay [it] up
<03240> (8689)
within thy gates
<08179>_:
And the Levite
<03881>_,
(because he hath no part
<02506>
nor inheritance
<05159>
with thee,) and the stranger
<01616>_,
and the fatherless
<03490>_,
and the widow
<0490>_,
which [are] within thy gates
<08179>_,
shall come
<0935> (8804)_,
and shall eat
<0398> (8804)
and be satisfied
<07646> (8804)_;
that the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
may bless
<01288> (8762)
thee in all the work
<04639>
of thine hand
<03027>
which thou doest
<06213> (8799)_.
At the end
<07093>
of [every] seven
<07651>
years
<08141>
thou shalt make
<06213> (8799)
a release
<08059>_.
And this [is] the manner
<01697>
of the release
<08059>_:
Every creditor
<01167> <04874> <03027>
that lendeth
<05383> (8686)
[ought] unto his neighbour
<07453>
shall release
<08058> (8800)
[it]; he shall not exact
<05065> (8799)
[it] of his neighbour
<07453>_,
or of his brother
<0251>_;
because it is called
<07121> (8804)
the LORD'S
<03068>
release
<08059>_.
{creditor: Heb. master of the lending of his hand}
Of a foreigner
<05237>
thou mayest exact
<05065> (8799)
[it again]: but [that] which is thine with thy brother
<0251>
thine hand
<03027>
shall release
<08058> (8686)_;
Save
<0657>
when there shall be no poor
<034>
among you; for the LORD
<03068>
shall greatly
<01288> (8763)
bless
<01288> (8762)
thee in the land
<0776>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee [for] an inheritance
<05159>
to possess
<03423> (8800)
it: {Save...: or, To the end that there be no poor among you}
Only if thou carefully
<08085> (8800)
hearken
<08085> (8799)
unto the voice
<06963>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
to observe
<08104> (8800)
to do
<06213> (8800)
all these commandments
<04687>
which I command
<06680> (8764)
thee this day
<03117>_.
For the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
blesseth
<01288> (8765)
thee, as he promised
<01696> (8765)
thee: and thou shalt lend
<05670> (8689)
unto many
<07227>
nations
<01471>_,
but thou shalt not borrow
<05670> (8799)_;
and thou shalt reign
<04910> (8804)
over many
<07227>
nations
<01471>_,
but they shall not reign
<04910> (8799)
over thee.
If there be among you a poor man
<034>
of one
<0259>
of thy brethren
<0251>
within any
<0259>
of thy gates
<08179>
in thy land
<0776>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee, thou shalt not harden
<0553> (8762)
thine heart
<03824>_,
nor shut
<07092> (8799)
thine hand
<03027>
from thy poor
<034>
brother
<0251>_:
But thou shalt open
<06605> (8799)
thine hand
<03027>
wide
<06605> (8800)
unto him, and shalt surely
<05670> (8687)
lend
<05670> (8686)
him sufficient
<01767>
for his need
<04270>_,
[in that] which he wanteth
<02637> (8799)_.
Beware
<08104> (8734)
that there be not a thought
<01697>
in thy wicked
<01100>
heart
<03824>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
The seventh
<07651>
year
<08141>_,
the year
<08141>
of release
<08059>_,
is at hand
<07126> (8804)_;
and thine eye
<05869>
be evil
<07489> (8804)
against thy poor
<034>
brother
<0251>_,
and thou givest
<05414> (8799)
him nought; and he cry
<07121> (8804)
unto the LORD
<03068>
against thee, and it be sin
<02399>
unto thee. {thought: Heb. word} {wicked: Heb. Belial}
Thou shalt surely
<05414> (8800)
give
<05414> (8799)
him, and thine heart
<03824>
shall not be grieved
<03415> (8799)
when thou givest
<05414> (8800)
unto him: because
<01558>
that for this thing
<01697>
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
shall bless
<01288> (8762)
thee in all thy works
<04639>_,
and in all that thou puttest
<04916>
thine hand
<03027>
unto.
For the poor
<034>
shall never cease
<02308> (8799)
out of
<07130>
the land
<0776>_:
therefore I command
<06680> (8764)
thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thou shalt open
<06605> (8799)
thine hand
<03027>
wide
<06605> (8800)
unto thy brother
<0251>_,
to thy poor
<06041>_,
and to thy needy
<034>_,
in thy land
<0776>_.
[And] if thy brother
<0251>_,
an Hebrew man
<05680>_,
or an Hebrew woman
<05680>_,
be sold
<04376> (8735)
unto thee, and serve
<05647> (8804)
thee six
<08337>
years
<08141>_;
then in the seventh
<07637>
year
<08141>
thou shalt let him go
<07971> (8762)
free
<02670>
from thee.
And when thou sendest
<07971> (8762)
him out free
<02670>
from thee, thou shalt not let him go away
<07971> (8762)
empty
<07387>_:
Thou shalt furnish
<06059> (8686)
him liberally
<06059> (8687)
out of thy flock
<06629>_,
and out of thy floor
<01637>_,
and out of thy winepress
<03342>_:
[of that] wherewith the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath blessed
<01288> (8765)
thee thou shalt give
<05414> (8799)
unto him.
And thou shalt remember
<02142> (8804)
that thou wast a bondman
<05650>
in the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
redeemed
<06299> (8799)
thee: therefore I command
<06680> (8764)
thee this thing
<01697>
to day
<03117>_.
And it shall be, if he say
<0559> (8799)
unto thee, I will not go away
<03318> (8799)
from thee; because he loveth
<0157> (8804)
thee and thine house
<01004>_,
because he is well
<02895> (8804)
with thee;
Then thou shalt take
<03947> (8804)
an aul
<04836>_,
and thrust
<05414> (8804)
[it] through his ear
<0241>
unto the door
<01817>_,
and he shall be thy servant
<05650>
for ever
<05769>_.
And also unto thy maidservant
<0519>
thou shalt do
<06213> (8799)
likewise.
It shall not seem hard
<07185> (8799)
unto thee
<05869>_,
when thou sendest him away
<07971> (8763)
free
<02670>
from thee; for he hath been worth
<07939>
a double
<04932>
hired servant
<07916>
[to thee], in serving
<05647> (8804)
thee six
<08337>
years
<08141>_:
and the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
shall bless
<01288> (8765)
thee in all that thou doest
<06213> (8799)_.
All the firstling
<01060>
males
<02145>
that come
<03205> (8735)
of thy herd
<01241>
and of thy flock
<06629>
thou shalt sanctify
<06942> (8686)
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_:
thou shalt do no work
<05647> (8799)
with the firstling
<01060>
of thy bullock
<07794>_,
nor shear
<01494> (8799)
the firstling
<01060>
of thy sheep
<06629>_.
Thou shalt eat
<0398> (8799)
[it] before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
year
<08141>
by year
<08141>
in the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)_,
thou and thy household
<01004>_.
And if there be [any] blemish
<03971>
therein, [as if it be] lame
<06455>_,
or blind
<05787>_,
[or have] any ill
<07451>
blemish
<03971>_,
thou shalt not sacrifice
<02076> (8799)
it unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_.
Thou shalt eat
<0398> (8799)
it within thy gates
<08179>_:
the unclean
<02931>
and the clean
<02889>
[person shall eat it] alike
<03162>_,
as the roebuck
<06643>_,
and as the hart
<0354>_.
Only thou shalt not eat
<0398> (8799)
the blood
<01818>
thereof; thou shalt pour
<08210> (8799)
it upon the ground
<0776>
as water
<04325>_.
Observe
<08104> (8800)
the month
<02320>
of Abib
<024>_,
and keep
<06213> (8804)
the passover
<06453>
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_:
for in the month
<02320>
of Abib
<024>
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
brought thee forth
<03318> (8689)
out of Egypt
<04714>
by night
<03915>_.
Thou shalt therefore sacrifice
<02076> (8804)
the passover
<06453>
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
of the flock
<06629>
and the herd
<01241>_,
in the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)
to place
<07931> (8763)
his name
<08034>
there.
Thou shalt eat
<0398> (8799)
no leavened bread
<02557>
with it; seven
<07651>
days
<03117>
shalt thou eat
<0398> (8799)
unleavened bread
<04682>
therewith, [even] the bread
<03899>
of affliction
<06040>_;
for thou camest forth
<03318> (8804)
out of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>
in haste
<02649>_:
that thou mayest remember
<02142> (8799)
the day
<03117>
when thou camest forth
<03318> (8800)
out of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>
all the days
<03117>
of thy life
<02416>_.
And there shall be no leavened bread
<07603>
seen
<07200> (8735)
with thee in all thy coast
<01366>
seven
<07651>
days
<03117>_;
neither shall there [any thing] of the flesh
<01320>_,
which thou sacrificedst
<02076> (8799)
the first
<07223>
day
<03117>
at even
<06153>_,
remain
<03885> (8799)
all night until the morning
<01242>_.
Thou mayest
<03201> (8799)
not sacrifice
<02076> (8800)
the passover
<06453>
within any
<0259>
of thy gates
<08179>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee: {sacrifice: or, kill}
But at the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)
to place
<07931> (8763)
his name
<08034>
in, there thou shalt sacrifice
<02076> (8799)
the passover
<06453>
at even
<06153>_,
at the going down
<0935> (8800)
of the sun
<08121>_,
at the season
<04150>
that thou camest forth
<03318> (8800)
out of Egypt
<04714>_.
And thou shalt roast
<01310> (8765)
and eat
<0398> (8804)
[it] in the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)_:
and thou shalt turn
<06437> (8804)
in the morning
<01242>_,
and go
<01980> (8804)
unto thy tents
<0168>_.
Six
<08337>
days
<03117>
thou shalt eat
<0398> (8799)
unleavened bread
<04682>_:
and on the seventh
<07637>
day
<03117>
[shall be] a solemn assembly
<06116>
to the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_:
thou shalt do
<06213> (8799)
no work
<04399>
[therein]. {solemn...: Heb. restraint}
Seven
<07651>
weeks
<07620>
shalt thou number
<05608> (8799)
unto thee: begin
<02490> (8687)
to number
<05608> (8800)
the seven
<07651>
weeks
<07620>
from [such time as] thou beginnest
<02490> (8686)
[to put] the sickle
<02770>
to the corn
<07054>_.
And thou shalt keep
<06213> (8804)
the feast
<02282>
of weeks
<07620>
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
with a tribute
<04530>
of a freewill offering
<05071>
of thine hand
<03027>_,
which thou shalt give
<05414> (8799)
[unto the LORD thy God], according as the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath blessed
<01288> (8762)
thee: {a tribute: or, sufficiency}
And thou shalt rejoice
<08055> (8804)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
thou, and thy son
<01121>_,
and thy daughter
<01323>_,
and thy manservant
<05650>_,
and thy maidservant
<0519>_,
and the Levite
<03881>
that [is] within thy gates
<08179>_,
and the stranger
<01616>_,
and the fatherless
<03490>_,
and the widow
<0490>_,
that [are] among
<07130>
you, in the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath chosen
<0977> (8799)
to place
<07931> (8763)
his name
<08034>
there.
And thou shalt remember
<02142> (8804)
that thou wast a bondman
<05650>
in Egypt
<04714>_:
and thou shalt observe
<08104> (8804)
and do
<06213> (8804)
these statutes
<02706>_.
Thou shalt observe
<06213> (8799)
the feast
<02282>
of tabernacles
<05521>
seven
<07651>
days
<03117>_,
after that thou hast gathered
<0622> (8800)
in thy corn
<01637>
and thy wine
<03342>_:
{corn...: Heb. floor, and thy winepress}
And thou shalt rejoice
<08055> (8804)
in thy feast
<02282>_,
thou, and thy son
<01121>_,
and thy daughter
<01323>_,
and thy manservant
<05650>_,
and thy maidservant
<0519>_,
and the Levite
<03881>_,
the stranger
<01616>_,
and the fatherless
<03490>_,
and the widow
<0490>_,
that [are] within thy gates
<08179>_.
Seven
<07651>
days
<03117>
shalt thou keep a solemn feast
<02287> (8799)
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
in the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)_:
because the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
shall bless
<01288> (8762)
thee in all thine increase
<08393>_,
and in all the works
<04639>
of thine hands
<03027>_,
therefore thou shalt surely rejoice
<08056>_.
Three
<07969>
times
<06471>
in a year
<08141>
shall all thy males
<02138>
appear
<07200> (8735)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
in the place
<04725>
which he shall choose
<0977> (8799)_;
in the feast
<02282>
of unleavened bread
<04682>_,
and in the feast
<02282>
of weeks
<07620>_,
and in the feast
<02282>
of tabernacles
<05521>_:
and they shall not appear
<07200> (8735)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
empty
<07387>_:
Every man
<0376>
[shall give] as he is able
<04979> <03027>_,
according to the blessing
<01293>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
which he hath given
<05414> (8804)
thee. {as...: Heb. according to the gift of his hand}
Judges
<08199> (8802)
and officers
<07860> (8802)
shalt thou make
<05414> (8799)
thee in all thy gates
<08179>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee, throughout thy tribes
<07626>_:
and they shall judge
<08199> (8804)
the people
<05971>
with just
<06664>
judgment
<04941>_.
Thou shalt not wrest
<05186> (8686)
judgment
<04941>_;
thou shalt not respect
<05234> (8686)
persons
<06440>_,
neither take
<03947> (8799)
a gift
<07810>_:
for a gift
<07810>
doth blind
<05786> (8762)
the eyes
<05869>
of the wise
<02450>_,
and pervert
<05557> (8762)
the words
<01697>
of the righteous
<06662>_.
{words: or, matters}
That which is altogether
<06664>
just
<06664>
shalt thou follow
<07291> (8799)_,
that thou mayest live
<02421> (8799)_,
and inherit
<03423> (8804)
the land
<0776>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee. {That which...: Heb. Justice, justice}
Thou shalt not plant
<05193> (8799)
thee a grove
<0842>
of any trees
<06086>
near unto
<0681>
the altar
<04196>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
which thou shalt make
<06213> (8799)
thee.
Neither shalt thou set thee up
<06965> (8686)
[any] image
<04676>_;
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hateth
<08130> (8804)_.
{image: or, statue, or, pillar}
Thou shalt not sacrifice
<02076> (8799)
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
[any] bullock
<07794>_,
or sheep
<07716>_,
wherein is blemish
<03971>_,
[or] any evilfavouredness
<07451> <01697>_:
for that [is] an abomination
<08441>
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_.
{sheep: or, goat}
If there be found
<04672> (8735)
among
<07130>
you, within any
<0259>
of thy gates
<08179>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee, man
<0376>
or woman
<0802>_,
that hath wrought
<06213> (8799)
wickedness
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
in transgressing
<05674> (8800)
his covenant
<01285>_,
And hath gone
<03212> (8799)
and served
<05647> (8799)
other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
and worshipped
<07812> (8691)
them, either the sun
<08121>_,
or moon
<03394>_,
or any of the host
<06635>
of heaven
<08064>_,
which I have not commanded
<06680> (8765)_;
And it be told
<05046> (8717)
thee, and thou hast heard
<08085> (8804)
[of it], and enquired
<01875> (8804)
diligently
<03190> (8687)_,
and, behold, [it be] true
<0571>_,
[and] the thing
<01697>
certain
<03559> (8737)_,
[that] such abomination
<08441>
is wrought
<06213> (8738)
in Israel
<03478>_:
Then shalt thou bring forth
<03318> (8689)
that man
<0376>
or that woman
<0802>_,
which have committed
<06213> (8804)
that wicked
<07451>
thing
<01697>_,
unto thy gates
<08179>_,
[even] that man
<0376>
or that woman
<0802>_,
and shalt stone
<05619> (8804)
them with stones
<068>_,
till they die
<04191> (8804)_.
At the mouth
<06310>
of two
<08147>
witnesses
<05707>_,
or three
<07969>
witnesses
<05707>_,
shall he that is worthy of death
<04191> (8714)
be put to death
<04191> (8801)_;
[but] at the mouth
<06310>
of one
<0259>
witness
<05707>
he shall not be put to death
<04191> (8714)_.
The hands
<03027>
of the witnesses
<05707>
shall be first
<07223>
upon him to put him to death
<04191> (8687)_,
and afterward
<0314>
the hands
<03027>
of all the people
<05971>_.
So thou shalt put
<01197> (0)
the evil
<07451>
away
<01197> (8765)
from among
<07130>
you.
If there arise a matter
<01697>
too hard
<06381> (8735)
for thee in judgment
<04941>_,
between blood
<01818>
and blood
<01818>_,
between plea
<01779>
and plea
<01779>_,
and between stroke
<05061>
and stroke
<05061>_,
[being] matters
<01697>
of controversy
<07379>
within thy gates
<08179>_:
then shalt thou arise
<06965> (8804)_,
and get thee up
<05927> (8804)
into the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)_;
And thou shalt come
<0935> (8804)
unto the priests
<03548>
the Levites
<03881>_,
and unto the judge
<08199> (8802)
that shall be in those days
<03117>_,
and enquire
<01875> (8804)_;
and they shall shew
<05046> (8689)
thee the sentence
<01697>
of judgment
<04941>_:
And thou shalt do
<06213> (8804)
according to the sentence
<06310> <01697>_,
which they of that place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)
shall shew
<05046> (8686)
thee; and thou shalt observe
<08104> (8804)
to do
<06213> (8800)
according to all that they inform
<03384> (8686)
thee:
According to the sentence
<06310>
of the law
<08451>
which they shall teach
<03384> (8686)
thee, and according to the judgment
<04941>
which they shall tell
<0559> (8799)
thee, thou shalt do
<06213> (8799)_:
thou shalt not decline
<05493> (8799)
from the sentence
<01697>
which they shall shew
<05046> (8686)
thee, [to] the right hand
<03225>_,
nor [to] the left
<08040>_.
And the man
<0376>
that will do
<06213> (8799)
presumptuously
<02087>_,
and will not hearken
<08085> (8800)
unto the priest
<03548>
that standeth
<05975> (8802)
to minister
<08334> (8763)
there before the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
or unto the judge
<08199> (8802)_,
even that man
<0376>
shall die
<04191> (8804)_:
and thou shalt put away
<01197> (8765)
the evil
<07451>
from Israel
<03478>_.
{and will...: Heb. not to hearken}
And all the people
<05971>
shall hear
<08085> (8799)_,
and fear
<03372> (8799)_,
and do no more presumptuously
<02102> (8686)_.
When thou art come
<0935> (8799)
unto the land
<0776>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee, and shalt possess
<03423> (8804)
it, and shalt dwell
<03427> (8804)
therein, and shalt say
<0559> (8804)_,
I will set
<07760> (8799)
a king
<04428>
over me, like as all the nations
<01471>
that [are] about
<05439>
me;
Thou shalt in any wise
<07760> (8800)
set
<07760> (8799)
[him] king
<04428>
over thee, whom the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)_:
[one] from among
<07130>
thy brethren
<0251>
shalt thou set
<07760> (8799)
king
<04428>
over thee: thou mayest
<03201> (8799)
not set
<05414> (8800)
a stranger
<05237> <0376>
over thee, which [is] not thy brother
<0251>_.
But he shall not multiply
<07235> (8686)
horses
<05483>
to himself, nor cause the people
<05971>
to return
<07725> (8686)
to Egypt
<04714>_,
to the end that he should multiply
<07235> (8687)
horses
<05483>_:
forasmuch as the LORD
<03068>
hath said
<0559> (8804)
unto you, Ye shall henceforth
<03254> (8686)
return
<07725> (8800)
no more that way
<01870>_.
Neither shall he multiply
<07235> (8686)
wives
<0802>
to himself, that his heart
<03824>
turn
<05493> (8799)
not away: neither shall he greatly
<03966>
multiply
<07235> (8686)
to himself silver
<03701>
and gold
<02091>_.
And it shall be, when he sitteth
<03427> (8800)
upon the throne
<03678>
of his kingdom
<04467>_,
that he shall write
<03789> (8804)
him a copy
<04932>
of this law
<08451>
in a book
<05612>
out of [that which is] before
<06440>
the priests
<03548>
the Levites
<03881>_:
And it shall be with him, and he shall read
<07121> (8804)
therein all the days
<03117>
of his life
<02416>_:
that he may learn
<03925> (8799)
to fear
<03372> (8800)
the LORD
<03068>
his God
<0430>_,
to keep
<08104> (8800)
all the words
<01697>
of this law
<08451>
and these statutes
<02706>_,
to do
<06213> (8800)
them:
That his heart
<03824>
be not lifted up
<07311> (8800)
above his brethren
<0251>_,
and that he turn not aside
<05493> (8800)
from the commandment
<04687>_,
[to] the right hand
<03225>_,
or [to] the left
<08040>_:
to the end that he may prolong
<0748> (8686)
[his] days
<03117>
in his kingdom
<04467>_,
he, and his children
<01121>_,
in the midst
<07130>
of Israel
<03478>_.
The priests
<03548>
the Levites
<03881>_,
[and] all the tribe
<07626>
of Levi
<03878>_,
shall have no part
<02506>
nor inheritance
<05159>
with Israel
<03478>_:
they shall eat
<0398> (8799)
the offerings
<0801> (0)
of the LORD
<03068>
made by fire
<0801>_,
and his inheritance
<05159>_.
Therefore shall they have no inheritance
<05159>
among
<07130>
their brethren
<0251>_:
the LORD
<03068>
[is] their inheritance
<05159>_,
as he hath said
<01696> (8765)
unto them.
And this shall be the priest's
<03548>
due
<04941>
from the people
<05971>_,
from them that offer
<02076> (8802)
a sacrifice
<02077>_,
whether [it be] ox
<07794>
or sheep
<07716>_;
and they shall give
<05414> (8804)
unto the priest
<03548>
the shoulder
<02220>_,
and the two cheeks
<03895>_,
and the maw
<06896>_.
The firstfruit
<07225>
[also] of thy corn
<01715>_,
of thy wine
<08492>_,
and of thine oil
<03323>_,
and the first
<07225>
of the fleece
<01488>
of thy sheep
<06629>_,
shalt thou give
<05414> (8799)
him.
For the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath chosen
<0977> (8804)
him out of all thy tribes
<07626>_,
to stand
<05975> (8800)
to minister
<08334> (8763)
in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
him and his sons
<01121>
for ever
<03117>_.
And if a Levite
<03881>
come
<0935> (8799)
from any
<0259>
of thy gates
<08179>
out of all Israel
<03478>_,
where he sojourned
<01481> (8802)_,
and come
<0935> (8804)
with all the desire
<0185>
of his mind
<05315>
unto the place
<04725>
which the LORD
<03068>
shall choose
<0977> (8799)_;
Then he shall minister
<08334> (8765)
in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>
his God
<0430>_,
as all his brethren
<0251>
the Levites
<03881>
[do], which stand
<05975> (8802)
there before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_.
They shall have like portions
<02506>
to eat
<0398> (8799)_,
beside that which cometh of the sale
<04465>
of his patrimony
<01>_.
{that...: Heb. his sale by the fathers}
When thou art come
<0935> (8802)
into the land
<0776>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee, thou shalt not learn
<03925> (8799)
to do
<06213> (8800)
after the abominations
<08441>
of those nations
<01471>_.
There shall not be found
<04672> (8735)
among you [any one] that maketh his son
<01121>
or his daughter
<01323>
to pass
<05674> (8688)
through the fire
<0784>_,
[or] that useth
<07080> (8802)
divination
<07081>_,
[or] an observer of times
<06049> (8781)_,
or an enchanter
<05172> (8764)_,
or a witch
<03784> (8764)_,
Or a charmer
<02266> (8802) <02267>_,
or a consulter
<07592> (8802)
with familiar spirits
<0178>_,
or a wizard
<03049>_,
or a necromancer
<01875> (8802) <04191> (8801)_.
For all that do
<06213> (8802)
these things [are] an abomination
<08441>
unto the LORD
<03068>_:
and because
<01558>
of these abominations
<08441>
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
doth drive them out
<03423> (8688)
from before
<06440>
thee.
Thou shalt be perfect
<08549>
with the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_.
{perfect: or, upright, or, sincere}
For these nations
<01471>_,
which thou shalt possess
<03423> (8802)_,
hearkened
<08085> (8799)
unto observers of times
<06049> (8781)_,
and unto diviners
<07080> (8802)_:
but as for thee, the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath not suffered
<05414> (8804)
thee so [to do]. {possess: or, inherit}
The LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
will raise up
<06965> (8686)
unto thee a Prophet
<05030>
from the midst
<07130>
of thee, of thy brethren
<0251>_,
like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken
<08085> (8799)_;
According to all that thou desiredst
<07592> (8804)
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
in Horeb
<02722>
in the day
<03117>
of the assembly
<06951>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Let me not hear
<08085> (8800)
again
<03254> (8686)
the voice
<06963>
of the LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>_,
neither let me see
<07200> (8799)
this great
<01419>
fire
<0784>
any more, that I die
<04191> (8799)
not.
And the LORD
<03068>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto me, They have well
<03190> (8689)
[spoken that] which they have spoken
<01696> (8765)_.
I will raise them up
<06965> (8686)
a Prophet
<05030>
from among
<07130>
their brethren
<0251>_,
like unto thee, and will put
<05414> (8804)
my words
<01697>
in his mouth
<06310>_;
and he shall speak
<01696> (8765)
unto them all that I shall command
<06680> (8762)
him.
And it shall come to pass, [that] whosoever
<0376>
will not hearken
<08085> (8799)
unto my words
<01697>
which he shall speak
<01696> (8762)
in my name
<08034>_,
I will require
<01875> (8799)
[it] of him.
But the prophet
<05030>_,
which shall presume
<02102> (8686)
to speak
<01696> (8763)
a word
<01697>
in my name
<08034>_,
which I have not commanded
<06680> (8765)
him to speak
<01696> (8763)_,
or that shall speak
<01696> (8762)
in the name
<08034>
of other
<0312>
gods
<0430>_,
even that prophet
<05030>
shall die
<04191> (8804)_.
And if thou say
<0559> (8799)
in thine heart
<03824>_,
How shall we know
<03045> (8799)
the word
<01697>
which the LORD
<03068>
hath not spoken
<01696> (8765)_?
When a prophet
<05030>
speaketh
<01696> (8762)
in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
if the thing
<01697>
follow not, nor come to pass
<0935> (8799)_,
that [is] the thing
<01697>
which the LORD
<03068>
hath not spoken
<01696> (8765)_,
[but] the prophet
<05030>
hath spoken
<01696> (8765)
it presumptuously
<02087>_:
thou shalt not be afraid
<01481> (8799)
of him.
When the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath cut off
<03772> (8686)
the nations
<01471>_,
whose land
<0776>
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee, and thou succeedest
<03423> (8804)
them, and dwellest
<03427> (8804)
in their cities
<05892>_,
and in their houses
<01004>_;
{succeedest: Heb. inheritest, or, possessest}
Thou shalt separate
<0914> (8686)
three
<07969>
cities
<05892>
for thee in the midst
<08432>
of thy land
<0776>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee to possess
<03423> (8800)
it.
Thou shalt prepare
<03559> (8686)
thee a way
<01870>_,
and divide the coasts
<01366>
of thy land
<0776>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth thee to inherit
<05157> (8686)_,
into three parts
<08027> (8765)_,
that every slayer
<07523> (8802)
may flee
<05127> (8800)
thither.
And this [is] the case
<01697>
of the slayer
<07523> (8802)_,
which shall flee
<05127> (8799)
thither, that he may live
<02425> (8804)_:
Whoso killeth
<05221> (8686)
his neighbour
<07453>
ignorantly
<01097> <01847>_,
whom he hated
<08130> (8802)
not in time
<08543>
past
<08032>_;
{in...: Heb. from yesterday the third day}
As when a man goeth
<0935> (8799)
into the wood
<03293>
with his neighbour
<07453>
to hew
<02404> (8800)
wood
<06086>_,
and his hand
<03027>
fetcheth a stroke
<05080> (8738)
with the axe
<01631>
to cut down
<03772> (8800)
the tree
<06086>_,
and the head
<01270>
slippeth
<05394> (8804)
from the helve
<06086>_,
and lighteth
<04672> (8804)
upon his neighbour
<07453>_,
that he die
<04191> (8804)_;
he shall flee
<05127> (8799)
unto one
<0259>
of those cities
<05892>_,
and live
<02425> (8804)_:
{head: Heb. iron} {helve: Heb. wood} {lighteth...: Heb. findeth}
Lest the avenger
<01350> (8802)
of the blood
<01818> (8676)
pursue
<07291> (8799)
the slayer
<0310> <07523> (8802)_,
while
<03588>
his heart
<03824>
is hot
<03179> (8799)_,
and overtake
<05381> (8689)
him, because the way
<01870>
is long
<07235> (8799)_,
and slay
<05221> (8689)
him
<05315>_;
whereas he [was] not worthy
<04941>
of death
<04194>_,
inasmuch as
<03588>
he hated
<08130> (8802)
him not in time
<08543>
past
<08032>_.
{slay...: Heb. smite him in life} {in...: Heb. from yesterday the third day}
Wherefore I command
<06680> (8764)
thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Thou shalt separate
<0914> (8686)
three
<07969>
cities
<05892>
for thee.
And if the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
enlarge
<07337> (8686)
thy coast
<01366>_,
as he hath sworn
<07650> (8738)
unto thy fathers
<01>_,
and give
<05414> (8804)
thee all the land
<0776>
which he promised
<01696> (8765)
to give
<05414> (8800)
unto thy fathers
<01>_;
If thou shalt keep
<08104> (8799)
all these commandments
<04687>
to do
<06213> (8800)
them, which I command
<06680> (8764)
thee this day
<03117>_,
to love
<0157> (8800)
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
and to walk
<03212> (8800)
ever
<03117>
in his ways
<01870>_;
then shalt thou add
<03254> (8804)
three
<07969>
cities
<05892>
more for thee, beside these three
<07969>_:
That innocent
<05355>
blood
<01818>
be not shed
<08210> (8735)
in
<07130>
thy land
<0776>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee [for] an inheritance
<05159>_,
and [so] blood
<01818>
be upon thee.
But if any man
<0376>
hate
<08130> (8802)
his neighbour
<07453>_,
and lie in wait
<0693> (8804)
for him, and rise up
<06965> (8804)
against him, and smite
<05221> (8689)
him mortally
<05315>
that he die
<04191> (8804)_,
and fleeth
<05127> (8804)
into one
<0259>
of these
<0411>
cities
<05892>_:
{mortally: Heb. in life}
Then the elders
<02205>
of his city
<05892>
shall send
<07971> (8804)
and fetch
<03947> (8804)
him thence, and deliver
<05414> (8804)
him into the hand
<03027>
of the avenger
<01350> (8802)
of blood
<01818>_,
that he may die
<04191> (8804)_.
Thine eye
<05869>
shall not pity
<02347> (8799)
him, but thou shalt put away
<01197> (8765)
[the guilt of] innocent
<05355>
blood
<01818>
from Israel
<03478>_,
that it may go well
<02895> (8804)
with thee.
Thou shalt not remove
<05253> (8686)
thy neighbour's
<07453>
landmark
<01366>_,
which they of old time
<07223>
have set
<01379> (8804)
in thine inheritance
<05159>_,
which thou shalt inherit
<05157> (8799)
in the land
<0776>
that the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee to possess
<03423> (8800)
it.
One
<0259>
witness
<05707>
shall not rise up
<06965> (8799)
against a man
<0376>
for any iniquity
<05771>_,
or for any sin
<02403>_,
in any sin
<02399>
that he sinneth
<02398> (8799)_:
at the mouth
<06310>
of two
<08147>
witnesses
<05707>_,
or at the mouth
<06310>
of three
<07969>
witnesses
<05707>_,
shall the matter
<01697>
be established
<06965> (8799)_.
If a false
<02555>
witness
<05707>
rise up
<06965> (8799)
against any man
<0376>
to testify
<06030> (8800)
against him [that which is] wrong
<05627>_;
{that...: or, falling away}
Then both
<08147>
the men
<0582>_,
between whom the controversy
<07379>
[is], shall stand
<05975> (8804)
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
before
<06440>
the priests
<03548>
and the judges
<08199> (8802)_,
which shall be in those days
<03117>_;
And the judges
<08199> (8802)
shall make diligent
<03190> (8687)
inquisition
<01875> (8804)_:
and, behold, [if] the witness
<05707>
[be] a false
<08267>
witness
<05707>_,
[and] hath testified
<06030> (8804)
falsely
<08267>
against his brother
<0251>_;
Then shall ye do
<06213> (8804)
unto him, as he had thought
<02161> (8804)
to have done
<06213> (8800)
unto his brother
<0251>_:
so shalt thou put
<01197> (0)
the evil
<07451>
away
<01197> (8765)
from among
<07130>
you.
And those which remain
<07604> (8737)
shall hear
<08085> (8799)_,
and fear
<03372> (8799)_,
and shall henceforth
<03254> (8686)
commit
<06213> (8800)
no more any
<01697>
such evil
<07451>
among
<07130>
you.
And thine eye
<05869>
shall not pity
<02347> (8799)_;
[but] life
<05315>
[shall go] for life
<05315>_,
eye
<05869>
for eye
<05869>_,
tooth
<08127>
for tooth
<08127>_,
hand
<03027>
for hand
<03027>_,
foot
<07272>
for foot
<07272>_.
When thou goest out
<03318> (8799)
to battle
<04421>
against thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
and seest
<07200> (8804)
horses
<05483>_,
and chariots
<07393>_,
[and] a people
<05971>
more
<07227>
than thou, be not afraid
<03372> (8799)
of them: for the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
[is] with thee, which brought thee up
<05927> (8688)
out of the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_.
And it shall be, when ye are come nigh
<07126> (8800)
unto the battle
<04421>_,
that the priest
<03548>
shall approach
<05066> (8738)
and speak
<01696> (8765)
unto the people
<05971>_,
And shall say
<0559> (8804)
unto them, Hear
<08085> (8798)_,
O Israel
<03478>_,
ye approach
<07131>
this day
<03117>
unto battle
<04421>
against your enemies
<0341> (8802)_:
let not your hearts
<03824>
faint
<07401> (8735)_,
fear
<03372> (8799)
not, and do not tremble
<02648> (8799)_,
neither be ye terrified
<06206> (8799)
because
<06440>
of them; {faint: Heb. be tender} {tremble: Heb. make haste}
For the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>
[is] he that goeth
<01980> (8802)
with you, to fight
<03898> (8736)
for you against your enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
to save
<03467> (8687)
you.
And the officers
<07860> (8802)
shall speak
<01696> (8765)
unto the people
<05971>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
What man
<0376>
[is there] that hath built
<01129> (8804)
a new
<02319>
house
<01004>_,
and hath not dedicated
<02596> (8804)
it? let him go
<03212> (8799)
and return
<07725> (8799)
to his house
<01004>_,
lest he die
<04191> (8799)
in the battle
<04421>_,
and another
<0312>
man
<0376>
dedicate
<02596> (8799)
it.
And what man
<0376>
[is he] that hath planted
<05193> (8804)
a vineyard
<03754>_,
and hath not [yet] eaten
<02490> (8765)
of it? let him [also] go
<03212> (8799)
and return
<07725> (8799)
unto his house
<01004>_,
lest he die
<04191> (8799)
in the battle
<04421>_,
and another
<0312>
man
<0376>
eat
<02490> (8762)
of it. {eaten...: Heb. made it common}
And what man
<0376>
[is there] that hath betrothed
<0781> (8765)
a wife
<0802>_,
and hath not taken
<03947> (8804)
her? let him go
<03212> (8799)
and return
<07725> (8799)
unto his house
<01004>_,
lest he die
<04191> (8799)
in the battle
<04421>_,
and another
<0312>
man
<0376>
take
<03947> (8799)
her.
And the officers
<07860> (8802)
shall speak
<01696> (8763)
further
<03254> (8804)
unto the people
<05971>_,
and they shall say
<0559> (8804)_,
What man
<0376>
[is there that is] fearful
<03373>
and fainthearted
<07390> <03824>_?
let him go
<03212> (8799)
and return
<07725> (8799)
unto his house
<01004>_,
lest his brethren's
<0251>
heart
<03824>
faint
<04549> (8735)
as well as his heart
<03824>_.
{faint: Heb. melt}
And it shall be, when the officers
<07860> (8802)
have made an end
<03615> (8763)
of speaking
<01696> (8763)
unto the people
<05971>_,
that they shall make
<06485> (8804)
captains
<08269>
of the armies
<06635>
to lead
<07218>
the people
<05971>_.
{to lead...: Heb. to be in the head of the people}
When thou comest nigh
<07126> (8799)
unto a city
<05892>
to fight
<03898> (8736)
against it, then proclaim
<07121> (8804)
peace
<07965>
unto it.
And it shall be, if it make thee answer
<06030> (8799)
of peace
<07965>_,
and open
<06605> (8804)
unto thee, then it shall be, [that] all the people
<05971>
[that is] found
<04672> (8737)
therein shall be tributaries
<04522>
unto thee, and they shall serve
<05647> (8804)
thee.
And if it will make no peace
<07999> (8686)
with thee, but will make
<06213> (8804)
war
<04421>
against thee, then thou shalt besiege
<06696> (8804)
it:
And when the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath delivered
<05414> (8804)
it into thine hands
<03027>_,
thou shalt smite
<05221> (8689)
every male
<02138>
thereof with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_:
But the women
<0802>_,
and the little ones
<02945>_,
and the cattle
<0929>_,
and all that is in the city
<05892>_,
[even] all the spoil
<07998>
thereof, shalt thou take
<0962> (8799)
unto thyself; and thou shalt eat
<0398> (8804)
the spoil
<07998>
of thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath given
<05414> (8804)
thee. {take: Heb. spoil}
Thus shalt thou do
<06213> (8799)
unto all the cities
<05892>
[which are] very
<03966>
far off
<07350>
from thee, which
<02007>
[are] not of the cities
<05892>
of these nations
<01471>_.
But of the cities
<05892>
of these people
<05971>_,
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
doth give
<05414> (8802)
thee [for] an inheritance
<05159>_,
thou shalt save alive
<02421> (8762)
nothing that breatheth
<05397>_:
But thou shalt utterly
<02763> (8687)
destroy
<02763> (8686)
them; [namely], the Hittites
<02850>_,
and the Amorites
<0567>_,
the Canaanites
<03669>_,
and the Perizzites
<06522>_,
the Hivites
<02340>_,
and the Jebusites
<02983>_;
as the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath commanded
<06680> (8765)
thee:
That they teach
<03925> (8762)
you not to do
<06213> (8800)
after all their abominations
<08441>_,
which they have done
<06213> (8804)
unto their gods
<0430>_;
so should ye sin
<02398> (8804)
against the LORD
<03068>
your God
<0430>_.
When thou shalt besiege
<06696> (8799)
a city
<05892>
a long
<07227>
time
<03117>_,
in making war
<03898> (8736)
against it to take
<08610> (8800)
it, thou shalt not destroy
<07843> (8686)
the trees
<06086>
thereof by forcing
<05080> (8800)
an axe
<01631>
against them: for thou mayest eat
<0398> (8799)
of them, and thou shalt not cut them down
<03772> (8799)
(for the tree
<06086>
of the field
<07704>
[is] man's
<0120>
[life]) to employ
<0935> (8800)
[them] in the siege
<06440> <04692>_:
{for the...: or, for, O man, the tree of the field is to be employed in the siege} {to employ...: Heb. to go from before thee}
Only the trees
<06086>
which thou knowest
<03045> (8799)
that they [be] not trees
<06086>
for meat
<03978>_,
thou shalt destroy
<07843> (8686)
and cut them down
<03772> (8804)_;
and thou shalt build
<01129> (8804)
bulwarks
<04692>
against the city
<05892>
that maketh
<06213> (8802)
war
<04421>
with thee, until it be subdued
<03381> (8800)_.
{it...: Heb. it come down}
If [one] be found
<04672> (8735)
slain
<02491>
in the land
<0127>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee to possess
<03423> (8800)
it, lying
<05307> (8802)
in the field
<07704>_,
[and] it be not known
<03045> (8738)
who hath slain
<05221> (8689)
him:
Then thy elders
<02205>
and thy judges
<08199> (8802)
shall come forth
<03318> (8804)_,
and they shall measure
<04058> (8804)
unto the cities
<05892>
which [are] round about
<05439>
him that is slain
<02491>_:
And it shall be, [that] the city
<05892>
[which is] next
<07138>
unto the slain man
<02491>_,
even the elders
<02205>
of that city
<05892>
shall take
<03947> (8804)
an heifer
<01241> <05697>_,
which hath not been wrought with
<05647> (8795)_,
[and] which hath not drawn
<04900> (8804)
in the yoke
<05923>_;
And the elders
<02205>
of that city
<05892>
shall bring down
<03381> (8689)
the heifer
<05697>
unto a rough
<0386>
valley
<05158>_,
which is neither eared
<05647> (8735)
nor sown
<02232> (8735)_,
and shall strike off
<06202> (0)
the heifer's
<05697>
neck
<06202> (8804)
there in the valley
<05158>_:
And the priests
<03548>
the sons
<01121>
of Levi
<03878>
shall come near
<05066> (8738)_;
for them the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath chosen
<0977> (8804)
to minister
<08334> (8763)
unto him, and to bless
<01288> (8763)
in the name
<08034>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
and by their word
<06310>
shall every controversy
<07379>
and every stroke
<05061>
be [tried]: {word: Heb. mouth}
And all the elders
<02205>
of that city
<05892>_,
[that are] next
<07138>
unto the slain
<02491>
[man], shall wash
<07364> (8799)
their hands
<03027>
over the heifer
<05697>
that is beheaded
<06202> (8803)
in the valley
<05158>_:
And they shall answer
<06030> (8804)
and say
<0559> (8804)_,
Our hands
<03027>
have not shed
<08210> (8804)
this blood
<01818>_,
neither have our eyes
<05869>
seen
<07200> (8804)
[it].
Be merciful
<03722> (8761)_,
O LORD
<03068>_,
unto thy people
<05971>
Israel
<03478>_,
whom thou hast redeemed
<06299> (8804)_,
and lay
<05414> (8799)
not innocent
<05355>
blood
<01818>
unto thy people
<05971>
of Israel's
<03478>
charge
<07130>_.
And the blood
<01818>
shall be forgiven
<03722> (8694)
them. {unto thy people of: Heb. in the midst, etc}
So shalt thou put away
<01197> (8762)
the [guilt of] innocent
<05355>
blood
<01818>
from among
<07130>
you, when thou shalt do
<06213> (8799)
[that which is] right
<03477>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
When thou goest forth
<03318> (8799)
to war
<04421>
against thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
and the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath delivered
<05414> (8804)
them into thine hands
<03027>_,
and thou hast taken
<07617> (8804)
them captive
<07628>_,
And seest
<07200> (8804)
among the captives
<07633>
a beautiful
<08389> <03303>
woman
<0802>_,
and hast a desire
<02836> (8804)
unto her, that thou wouldest have her
<03947> (8804)
to thy wife
<0802>_;
Then thou shalt bring
<0935> (8689)
her home
<08432>
to thine house
<01004>_;
and she shall shave
<01548> (8765)
her head
<07218>_,
and pare
<06213> (8804)
her nails
<06856>_;
{pare: or, suffer to grow: Heb. make, or, dress}
And she shall put
<05493> (8689)
the raiment
<08071>
of her captivity
<07628>
from off her, and shall remain
<03427> (8804)
in thine house
<01004>_,
and bewail
<01058> (8804)
her father
<01>
and her mother
<0517>
a full
<03117>
month
<03391>_:
and after
<0310>
that thou shalt go
<0935> (8799)
in unto her, and be her husband
<01166> (8804)_,
and she shall be thy wife
<0802>_.
And it shall be, if thou have no delight
<02654> (8804)
in her, then thou shalt let her go
<07971> (8765)
whither she will
<05315>_;
but thou shalt not sell
<04376> (8799)
her at all
<04376> (8800)
for money
<03701>_,
thou shalt not make merchandise
<06014> (8691)
of her, because
<0834>
thou hast humbled
<06031> (8765)
her.
If a man
<0376>
have two
<08147>
wives
<0802>_,
one
<0259>
beloved
<0157> (8803)_,
and another
<0259>
hated
<08130> (8803)_,
and they have born
<03205> (8804)
him children
<01121>_,
[both] the beloved
<0157> (8803)
and the hated
<08130> (8803)_;
and [if] the firstborn
<01060>
son
<01121>
be hers that was hated
<08146>_:
Then it shall be, when
<03117>
he maketh his sons
<01121>
to inherit
<05157> (8687)
[that] which he hath, [that] he may
<03201> (8799)
not make the son
<01121>
of the beloved
<0157> (8803)
firstborn
<01069> (8763)
before
<06440>
the son
<01121>
of the hated
<08130> (8803)_,
[which is indeed] the firstborn
<01060>_:
But he shall acknowledge
<05234> (8686)
the son
<01121>
of the hated
<08130> (8803)
[for] the firstborn
<01060>_,
by giving
<05414> (8800)
him a double
<08147>
portion
<06310>
of all that he hath
<04672> (8735)_:
for he [is] the beginning
<07225>
of his strength
<0202>_;
the right
<04941>
of the firstborn
<01062>
[is] his. {that...: Heb. that is found with him}
If a man
<0376>
have a stubborn
<05637> (8802)
and rebellious
<04784> (8802)
son
<01121>_,
which will not obey
<08085> (8802)
the voice
<06963>
of his father
<01>_,
or the voice
<06963>
of his mother
<0517>_,
and [that], when they have chastened
<03256> (8765)
him, will not hearken
<08085> (8799)
unto them:
Then shall his father
<01>
and his mother
<0517>
lay hold
<08610> (8804)
on him, and bring him out
<03318> (8689)
unto the elders
<02205>
of his city
<05892>_,
and unto the gate
<08179>
of his place
<04725>_;
And they shall say
<0559> (8804)
unto the elders
<02205>
of his city
<05892>_,
This our son
<01121>
[is] stubborn
<05637> (8802)
and rebellious
<04784> (8802)_,
he will not obey
<08085> (8802)
our voice
<06963>_;
[he is] a glutton
<02151> (8802)_,
and a drunkard
<05433> (8802)_.
And all the men
<0582>
of his city
<05892>
shall stone
<07275> (8804)
him with stones
<068>_,
that he die
<04191> (8804)_:
so shalt thou put
<01197> (0)
evil
<07451>
away
<01197> (8765)
from among
<07130>
you; and all Israel
<03478>
shall hear
<08085> (8799)_,
and fear
<03372> (8799)_.
And if a man
<0376>
have committed a sin
<02399>
worthy of
<04941>
death
<04194>_,
and he be to be put to death
<04191> (8717)_,
and thou hang
<08518> (8804)
him on a tree
<06086>_:
His body
<05038>
shall not remain all night
<03885> (8799)
upon the tree
<06086>_,
but thou shalt in any wise
<06912> (8800)
bury
<06912> (8799)
him that day
<03117>_;
(for he that is hanged
<08518> (8803)
[is] accursed
<07045>
of God
<0430>;)
that thy land
<0127>
be not defiled
<02930> (8762)_,
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee [for] an inheritance
<05159>_.
{accursed...: Heb. the curse of God}
Thou shalt not see
<07200> (8799)
thy brother's
<0251>
ox
<07794>
or his sheep
<07716>
go astray
<05080> (8737)_,
and hide
<05956> (8694)
thyself from them: thou shalt in any case
<07725> (8687)
bring them again
<07725> (8686)
unto thy brother
<0251>_.
And if thy brother
<0251>
[be] not nigh
<07138>
unto thee, or if thou know
<03045> (8804)
him not, then thou shalt bring
<0622> (8804)
it unto
<08432>
thine own house
<01004>_,
and it shall be with thee until thy brother
<0251>
seek
<01875> (8800)
after it, and thou shalt restore it to him again
<07725> (8689)_.
In like manner
<03651>
shalt thou do
<06213> (8799)
with his ass
<02543>_;
and so shalt thou do
<06213> (8799)
with his raiment
<08071>_;
and with all lost thing
<09>
of thy brother's
<0251>_,
which he hath lost
<06> (8799)_,
and thou hast found
<04672> (8804)_,
shalt thou do
<06213> (8799)
likewise: thou mayest
<03201> (8799)
not hide
<05956> (8692)
thyself.
Thou shalt not see
<07200> (8799)
thy brother's
<0251>
ass
<02543>
or his ox
<07794>
fall down
<05307> (8802)
by the way
<01870>_,
and hide
<05956> (8694)
thyself from them: thou shalt surely
<06965> (8687)
help him to lift [them] up again
<06965> (8686)_.
The woman
<0802>
shall not wear that which pertaineth
<03627>
unto a man
<01397>_,
neither shall a man
<01397>
put
<03847> (8799)
on a woman's
<0802>
garment
<08071>_:
for all that do
<06213> (8802)
so
<0428>
[are] abomination
<08441>
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_.
If a bird's
<06833>
nest
<07064>
chance
<07122> (8735)
to be before
<06440>
thee in the way
<01870>
in any tree
<06086>_,
or on the ground
<0776>_,
[whether they be] young ones
<0667>_,
or eggs
<01000>_,
and the dam
<0517>
sitting
<07257> (8802)
upon the young
<0667>_,
or upon the eggs
<01000>_,
thou shalt not take
<03947> (8799)
the dam
<0517>
with the young
<01121>_:
[But] thou shalt in any wise
<07971> (8763)
let the dam
<0517>
go
<07971> (8762)_,
and take
<03947> (8799)
the young
<01121>
to thee; that it may be well
<03190> (8799)
with thee, and [that] thou mayest prolong
<0748> (8689)
[thy] days
<03117>_.
When thou buildest
<01129> (8799)
a new
<02319>
house
<01004>_,
then thou shalt make
<06213> (8804)
a battlement
<04624>
for thy roof
<01406>_,
that thou bring
<07760> (8799)
not blood
<01818>
upon thine house
<01004>_,
if any man
<05307> (8802)
fall
<05307> (8799)
from thence.
Thou shalt not sow
<02232> (8799)
thy vineyard
<03754>
with divers seeds
<03610>_:
lest the fruit
<04395>
of thy seed
<02233>
which thou hast sown
<02232> (8799)_,
and the fruit
<08393>
of thy vineyard
<03754>_,
be defiled
<06942> (8799)_.
{fruit of thy seed: Heb. fulness of the seed}
Thou shalt not plow
<02790> (8799)
with an ox
<07794>
and an ass
<02543>
together
<03162>_.
Thou shalt not wear
<03847> (8799)
a garment of divers sorts
<08162>_,
[as] of woollen
<06785>
and linen
<06593>
together
<03162>_.
Thou shalt make
<06213> (8799)
thee fringes
<01434>
upon the four
<0702>
quarters
<03671>
of thy vesture
<03682>_,
wherewith thou coverest
<03680> (8762)
[thyself]. {quarters: Heb. wings}
If any man
<0376>
take
<03947> (8799)
a wife
<0802>_,
and go in
<0935> (8804)
unto her, and hate
<08130> (8804)
her,
And give
<07760> (8804)
occasions
<05949>
of speech
<01697>
against her, and bring up
<03318> (8689)
an evil
<07451>
name
<08034>
upon her, and say
<0559> (8804)_,
I took
<03947> (8804)
this woman
<0802>_,
and when I came
<07126> (8799)
to her, I found
<04672> (8804)
her not a maid
<01331>_:
Then shall the father
<01>
of the damsel
<05291>_,
and her mother
<0517>_,
take
<03947> (8804)
and bring forth
<03318> (8689)
[the tokens of] the damsel's
<05291>
virginity
<01331>
unto the elders
<02205>
of the city
<05892>
in the gate
<08179>_:
And the damsel's
<05291>
father
<01>
shall say
<0559> (8804)
unto the elders
<02205>_,
I gave
<05414> (8804)
my daughter
<01323>
unto this man
<0376>
to wife
<0802>_,
and he hateth
<08130> (8799)
her;
And, lo, he hath given
<07760> (8804)
occasions
<05949>
of speech
<01697>
[against her], saying
<0559> (8800)_,
I found
<04672> (8804)
not thy daughter
<01323>
a maid
<01331>_;
and yet these [are the tokens of] my daughter's
<01323>
virginity
<01331>_.
And they shall spread
<06566> (8804)
the cloth
<08071>
before
<06440>
the elders
<02205>
of the city
<05892>_.
And the elders
<02205>
of that city
<05892>
shall take
<03947> (8804)
that man
<0376>
and chastise
<03256> (8765)
him;
And they shall amerce
<06064> (8804)
him in an hundred
<03967>
[shekels] of silver
<03701>_,
and give
<05414> (8804)
[them] unto the father
<01>
of the damsel
<05291>_,
because he hath brought up
<03318> (8689)
an evil
<07451>
name
<08034>
upon a virgin
<01330>
of Israel
<03478>_:
and she shall be his wife
<0802>_;
he may
<03201> (8799)
not put her away
<07971> (8763)
all his days
<03117>_.
But if this thing
<01697>
be true
<0571>_,
[and the tokens of] virginity
<01331>
be not found
<04672> (8738)
for the damsel
<05291>_:
Then they shall bring out
<03318> (8689)
the damsel
<05291>
to the door
<06607>
of her father's
<01>
house
<01004>_,
and the men
<0582>
of her city
<05892>
shall stone
<05619> (8804)
her with stones
<068>
that she die
<04191> (8804)_:
because she hath wrought
<06213> (8804)
folly
<05039>
in Israel
<03478>_,
to play the whore
<02181> (8800)
in her father's
<01>
house
<01004>_:
so shalt thou put
<01197> (0)
evil
<07451>
away
<01197> (8765)
from among
<07130>
you.
If a man
<0376>
be found
<04672> (8735)
lying
<07901> (8802)
with a woman
<0802>
married
<01166> (8803)
to an husband
<01167>_,
then they shall both of them
<08147>
die
<04191> (8804)_,
[both] the man
<0376>
that lay
<07901> (8802)
with the woman
<0802>_,
and the woman
<0802>_:
so shalt thou put away
<01197> (8765)
evil
<07451>
from Israel
<03478>_.
If a damsel
<05291>
[that is] a virgin
<01330>
be betrothed
<0781> (8794)
unto an husband
<0376>_,
and a man
<0376>
find
<04672> (8804)
her in the city
<05892>_,
and lie
<07901> (8804)
with her;
Then ye shall bring
<03318> (8689)
them both
<08147>
out unto the gate
<08179>
of that city
<05892>_,
and ye shall stone
<05619> (8804)
them with stones
<068>
that they die
<04191> (8804)_;
the damsel
<05291>_,
because
<0834> <01697>
she cried
<06817> (8804)
not, [being] in the city
<05892>_;
and the man
<0376>_,
because
<0834> <01697>
he hath humbled
<06031> (8765)
his neighbour's
<07453>
wife
<0802>_:
so thou shalt put away
<01197> (8765)
evil
<07451>
from among
<07130>
you.
But if a man
<0376>
find
<04672> (8799)
a betrothed
<0781> (8794)
damsel
<05291>
in the field
<07704>_,
and the man
<0376>
force
<02388> (8689)
her, and lie
<07901> (8804)
with her: then the man
<0376>
only that lay
<07901> (8804)
with her shall die
<04191> (8804)_:
{force: or, take strong hold of}
But unto the damsel
<05291>
thou shalt do
<06213> (8799)
nothing
<01697>_;
[there is] in the damsel
<05291>
no sin
<02399>
[worthy] of death
<04194>_:
for as when a man
<0376>
riseth
<06965> (8799)
against his neighbour
<07453>_,
and slayeth
<07523> (8804) (8676) <05315>
him, even so [is] this matter
<01697>_:
For he found
<04672> (8804)
her in the field
<07704>_,
[and] the betrothed
<0781> (8794)
damsel
<05291>
cried
<06817> (8804)_,
and [there was] none to save
<03467> (8688)
her.
If a man
<0376>
find
<04672> (8799)
a damsel
<05291>
[that is] a virgin
<01330>_,
which is not betrothed
<0781> (8795)_,
and lay hold
<08610> (8804)
on her, and lie
<07901> (8804)
with her, and they be found
<04672> (8738)_;
Then the man
<0376>
that lay
<07901> (8802)
with her shall give
<05414> (8804)
unto the damsel's
<05291>
father
<01>
fifty
<02572>
[shekels] of silver
<03701>_,
and she shall be his wife
<0802>_;
because he hath humbled
<06031> (8765)
her, he may
<03201> (8799)
not put her away
<07971> (8763)
all his days
<03117>_.
A man
<0376>
shall not take
<03947> (8799)
his father's
<01>
wife
<0802>_,
nor discover
<01540> (8762)
his father's
<01>
skirt
<03671>_.
He that is wounded in the stones
<06481> (8803) <01795>_,
or hath his privy member
<08212>
cut off
<03772> (8803)_,
shall not enter
<0935> (8799)
into the congregation
<06951>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
A bastard
<04464>
shall not enter
<0935> (8799)
into the congregation
<06951>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
even to his tenth
<06224>
generation
<01755>
shall he not enter
<0935> (8799)
into the congregation
<06951>
of the LORD
<03068>_.
An Ammonite
<05984>
or Moabite
<04125>
shall not enter
<0935> (8799)
into the congregation
<06951>
of the LORD
<03068>_;
even to their tenth
<06224>
generation
<01755>
shall they not enter
<0935> (8799)
into the congregation
<06951>
of the LORD
<03068>
for
<05704>
ever
<05769>_:
Because
<01697>
they met
<06923> (8765)
you not with bread
<03899>
and with water
<04325>
in the way
<01870>_,
when ye came forth
<03318> (8800)
out of Egypt
<04714>_;
and because they hired
<07936> (8804)
against thee Balaam
<01109>
the son
<01121>
of Beor
<01160>
of Pethor
<06604>
of Mesopotamia
<0763>_,
to curse
<07043> (8763)
thee.
Nevertheless the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
would
<014> (8804)
not hearken
<08085> (8800)
unto Balaam
<01109>_;
but the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
turned
<02015> (8799)
the curse
<07045>
into a blessing
<01293>
unto thee, because the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
loved
<0157> (8804)
thee.
Thou shalt not seek
<01875> (8799)
their peace
<07965>
nor their prosperity
<02896>
all thy days
<03117>
for ever
<05769>_.
{prosperity: Heb. good}
Thou shalt not abhor
<08581> (8762)
an Edomite
<0130>_;
for he [is] thy brother
<0251>_:
thou shalt not abhor
<08581> (8762)
an Egyptian
<04713>_;
because thou wast a stranger
<01616>
in his land
<0776>_.
The children
<01121>
that are begotten
<03205> (8735)
of them shall enter
<0935> (8799)
into the congregation
<06951>
of the LORD
<03068>
in their third
<07992>
generation
<01755>_.
When the host
<04264>
goeth forth
<03318> (8799)
against thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_,
then keep
<08104> (8738)
thee from every wicked
<07451>
thing
<01697>_.
If there be among you any man
<0376>_,
that is not clean
<02889>
by reason of uncleanness that chanceth
<07137>
him by night
<03915>_,
then shall he go
<03318> (8804)
abroad
<02351>
out of the camp
<04264>_,
he shall not come
<0935> (8799)
within
<08432>
the camp
<04264>_:
But it shall be, when evening
<06153>
cometh on
<06437> (8800)_,
he shall wash
<07364> (8799)
[himself] with water
<04325>_:
and when the sun
<08121>
is down
<0935> (8800)_,
he shall come
<0935> (8799)
into
<08432>
the camp
<04264>
[again]. {cometh...: Heb. turneth toward}
Thou shalt have a place also
<03027>
without
<02351>
the camp
<04264>_,
whither thou shalt go forth
<03318> (8804)
abroad
<02351>_:
And thou shalt have a paddle
<03489>
upon thy weapon
<0240>_;
and it shall be, when thou wilt ease
<03427> (8800)
thyself abroad
<02351>_,
thou shalt dig
<02658> (8804)
therewith, and shalt turn back
<07725> (8804)
and cover
<03680> (8765)
that which cometh
<06627>
from thee: {wilt...: Heb. sittest down}
For the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
walketh
<01980> (8693)
in the midst
<07130>
of thy camp
<04264>_,
to deliver
<05337> (8687)
thee, and to give up
<05414> (8800)
thine enemies
<0341> (8802)
before
<06440>
thee; therefore shall thy camp
<04264>
be holy
<06918>_:
that he see
<07200> (8799)
no unclean
<06172>
thing
<01697>
in thee, and turn away
<07725> (8804)
from thee
<0310>_.
{unclean...: Heb. nakedness of any thing}
Thou shalt not deliver
<05462> (8686)
unto his master
<0113>
the servant
<05650>
which is escaped
<05337> (8735)
from his master
<0113>
unto thee:
He shall dwell
<03427> (8799)
with thee, [even] among
<07130>
you, in that place
<04725>
which he shall choose
<0977> (8799)
in one
<0259>
of thy gates
<08179>_,
where it liketh him best
<02896>_:
thou shalt not oppress
<03238> (8686)
him. {liketh...: Heb. is good for him}
There shall be no whore
<06948>
of the daughters
<01323>
of Israel
<03478>_,
nor a sodomite
<06945>
of the sons
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{whore: or, sodomitess}
Thou shalt not bring
<0935> (8686)
the hire
<0868>
of a whore
<02181> (8802)_,
or the price
<04242>
of a dog
<03611>_,
into the house
<01004>
of the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
for any vow
<05088>_:
for even both
<08147>
these [are] abomination
<08441>
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_.
Thou shalt not lend upon usury
<05391> (8686)
to thy brother
<0251>_;
usury
<05392>
of money
<03701>_,
usury
<05392>
of victuals
<0400>_,
usury
<05392>
of any thing
<01697>
that is lent upon usury
<05391> (8799)_:
Unto a stranger
<05237>
thou mayest lend upon usury
<05391> (8686)_;
but unto thy brother
<0251>
thou shalt not lend upon usury
<05391> (8686)_:
that the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
may bless
<01288> (8762)
thee in all that thou settest
<04916>
thine hand
<03027>
to in the land
<0776>
whither thou goest
<0935> (8802)
to possess
<03423> (8800)
it.
When thou shalt vow
<05087> (8799)
a vow
<05088>
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
thou shalt not slack
<0309> (8762)
to pay
<07999> (8763)
it: for the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
will surely
<01875> (8800)
require
<01875> (8799)
it of thee; and it would be sin
<02399>
in thee.
But if thou shalt forbear
<02308> (8799)
to vow
<05087> (8800)_,
it shall be no sin
<02399>
in thee.
That which is gone out
<04161>
of thy lips
<08193>
thou shalt keep
<08104> (8799)
and perform
<06213> (8804)_;
[even] a freewill offering
<05071>_,
according as thou hast vowed
<05087> (8804)
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_,
which thou hast promised
<01696> (8765)
with thy mouth
<06310>_.
When thou comest
<0935> (8799)
into thy neighbour's
<07453>
vineyard
<03754>_,
then thou mayest eat
<0398> (8804)
grapes
<06025>
thy fill
<07648>
at thine own pleasure
<05315>_;
but thou shalt not put
<05414> (8799)
[any] in thy vessel
<03627>_.
When thou comest
<0935> (8799)
into the standing corn
<07054>
of thy neighbour
<07453>_,
then thou mayest pluck
<06998> (8804)
the ears
<04425>
with thine hand
<03027>_;
but thou shalt not move
<05130> (8686)
a sickle
<02770>
unto thy neighbour's
<07453>
standing corn
<07054>_.
When a man
<0376>
hath taken
<03947> (8799)
a wife
<0802>_,
and married
<01166> (8804)
her, and it come to pass that she find
<04672> (8799)
no favour
<02580>
in his eyes
<05869>_,
because he hath found
<04672> (8804)
some
<01697>
uncleanness
<06172>
in her: then let him write
<03789> (8804)
her a bill
<05612>
of divorcement
<03748>_,
and give
<05414> (8804)
[it] in her hand
<03027>_,
and send
<07971> (8765)
her out of his house
<01004>_.
{some...: Heb. matter of nakedness} {divorcement: Heb. cutting off}
And when she is departed out
<03318> (8804)
of his house
<01004>_,
she may go
<01980> (8804)
and be another
<0312>
man's
<0376>
[wife].
And [if] the latter
<0314>
husband
<0376>
hate
<08130> (8804)
her, and write
<03789> (8804)
her a bill
<05612>
of divorcement
<03748>_,
and giveth
<05414> (8804)
[it] in her hand
<03027>_,
and sendeth
<07971> (8765)
her out of his house
<01004>_;
or if the latter
<0314>
husband
<0376>
die
<04191> (8799)_,
which took
<03947> (8804)
her [to be] his wife
<0802>_;
Her former
<07223>
husband
<01167>_,
which sent her away
<07971> (8765)_,
may
<03201> (8799)
not take
<03947> (8800)
her again
<07725> (8800)
to be his wife
<0802>_,
after
<0310>
that she is defiled
<02930> (8719)_;
for that [is] abomination
<08441>
before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_:
and thou shalt not cause the land
<0776>
to sin
<02398> (8686)_,
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee [for] an inheritance
<05159>_.
When a man
<0376>
hath taken
<03947> (8799)
a new
<02319>
wife
<0802>_,
he shall not go out
<03318> (8799)
to war
<06635>_,
neither shall he be charged
<05674> (8799)
with any business
<01697>_:
[but] he shall be free
<05355>
at home
<01004>
one
<0259>
year
<08141>_,
and shall cheer up
<08055> (8765)
his wife
<0802>
which he hath taken
<03947> (8804)_.
{neither...: Heb. not any thing shall pass upon him}
No man shall take
<02254> (0)
the nether
<07347>
or the upper millstone
<07393>
to pledge
<02254> (8799)_:
for he taketh
<02254> (0)
[a man's] life
<05315>
to pledge
<02254> (8802)_.
If a man
<0376>
be found
<04672> (8735)
stealing
<01589> (8802)
any
<05315>
of his brethren
<0251>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_,
and maketh merchandise
<06014> (8694)
of him, or selleth
<04376> (8804)
him; then that thief
<01590>
shall die
<04191> (8804)_;
and thou shalt put
<01197> (0)
evil
<07451>
away
<01197> (8765)
from among
<07130>
you.
Take heed
<08104> (8734)
in the plague
<05061>
of leprosy
<06883>_,
that thou observe
<08104> (8800)
diligently
<03966>_,
and do
<06213> (8800)
according to all that the priests
<03548>
the Levites
<03881>
shall teach
<03384> (8686)
you: as I commanded
<06680> (8765)
them, [so] ye shall observe
<08104> (8799)
to do
<06213> (8800)_.
Remember
<02142> (8800)
what the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
did
<06213> (8804)
unto Miriam
<04813>
by the way
<01870>_,
after that ye were come forth
<03318> (8800)
out of Egypt
<04714>_.
When thou dost lend
<05383> (8686)
thy brother
<07453>
any
<03972>
thing
<04859>_,
thou shalt not go
<0935> (8799)
into his house
<01004>
to fetch
<05670> (8800)
his pledge
<05667>_.
{lend...: Heb. lend the loan of any thing to, etc}
Thou shalt stand
<05975> (8799)
abroad
<02351>_,
and the man
<0376>
to whom thou dost lend
<05383> (8802)
shall bring out
<03318> (8686)
the pledge
<05667>
abroad
<02351>
unto thee.
And if the man
<0376>
[be] poor
<06041>_,
thou shalt not sleep
<07901> (8799)
with his pledge
<05667>_:
In any case
<07725> (8687)
thou shalt deliver
<07725> (0)
him the pledge
<05667>
again
<07725> (8686)
when the sun
<08121>
goeth down
<0935> (8800)_,
that he may sleep
<07901> (8804)
in his own raiment
<08008>_,
and bless
<01288> (8765)
thee: and it shall be righteousness
<06666>
unto thee before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_.
Thou shalt not oppress
<06231> (8799)
an hired servant
<07916>
[that is] poor
<06041>
and needy
<034>_,
[whether he be] of thy brethren
<0251>_,
or of thy strangers
<01616>
that [are] in thy land
<0776>
within thy gates
<08179>_:
At his day
<03117>
thou shalt give
<05414> (8799)
[him] his hire
<07939>_,
neither shall the sun
<08121>
go down
<0935> (8799)
upon it; for he [is] poor
<06041>_,
and setteth
<05375> (8802)
his heart
<05315>
upon it: lest he cry
<07121> (8799)
against thee unto the LORD
<03068>_,
and it be sin
<02399>
unto thee. {setteth...: Heb. lifteth his soul unto it}
The fathers
<01>
shall not be put to death
<04191> (8714)
for the children
<01121>_,
neither shall the children
<01121>
be put to death
<04191> (8714)
for the fathers
<01>_:
every man
<0376>
shall be put to death
<04191> (8714)
for his own sin
<02399>_.
Thou shalt not pervert
<05186> (8686)
the judgment
<04941>
of the stranger
<01616>_,
[nor] of the fatherless
<03490>_;
nor take
<02254> (0)
a widow's
<0490>
raiment
<0899>
to pledge
<02254> (8799)_:
But thou shalt remember
<02142> (8804)
that thou wast a bondman
<05650>
in Egypt
<04714>_,
and the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
redeemed
<06299> (8799)
thee thence: therefore I command
<06680> (8764)
thee to do
<06213> (8800)
this thing
<01697>_.
When thou cuttest down
<07114> (8799)
thine harvest
<07105>
in thy field
<07704>_,
and hast forgot
<07911> (8804)
a sheaf
<06016>
in the field
<07704>_,
thou shalt not go again
<07725> (8799)
to fetch
<03947> (8800)
it: it shall be for the stranger
<01616>_,
for the fatherless
<03490>_,
and for the widow
<0490>_:
that the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
may bless
<01288> (8762)
thee in all the work
<04639>
of thine hands
<03027>_.
When thou beatest
<02251> (8799)
thine olive tree
<02132>_,
thou shalt not go over the boughs
<06286> (8762)
again
<0310>_:
it shall be for the stranger
<01616>_,
for the fatherless
<03490>_,
and for the widow
<0490>_.
{go...: Heb. bough it after thee}
When thou gatherest
<01219> (8799)
the grapes of thy vineyard
<03754>_,
thou shalt not glean
<05953> (8779)
[it] afterward
<0310>_:
it shall be for the stranger
<01616>_,
for the fatherless
<03490>_,
and for the widow
<0490>_.
{afterward: Heb. after thee}
And thou shalt remember
<02142> (8804)
that thou wast a bondman
<05650>
in the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_:
therefore I command
<06680> (8764)
thee to do
<06213> (8800)
this thing
<01697>_.
If there be a controversy
<07379>
between men
<0582>_,
and they come
<05066> (8738)
unto judgment
<04941>_,
that [the judges] may judge
<08199> (8804)
them; then they shall justify
<06663> (8689)
the righteous
<06662>_,
and condemn
<07561> (8689)
the wicked
<07563>_.
And it shall be, if the wicked man
<07563>
[be] worthy
<01121>
to be beaten
<05221> (8687)_,
that the judge
<08199> (8802)
shall cause him to lie down
<05307> (8689)_,
and to be beaten
<05221> (8689)
before his face
<06440>_,
according
<01767>
to his fault
<07564>_,
by a certain number
<04557>_.
Forty
<0705>
stripes
<05221> (8686)
he may give him, [and] not exceed
<03254> (8686)_:
lest, [if] he should exceed
<03254> (8686)_,
and beat
<05221> (8687)
him above these with many
<07227>
stripes
<04347>_,
then thy brother
<0251>
should seem vile
<07034> (8738) <05869>
unto thee.
Thou shalt not muzzle
<02629> (8799)
the ox
<07794>
when he treadeth out
<01778> (8800)
[the corn]. {treadeth...: Heb. thresheth}
If brethren
<0251>
dwell
<03427> (8799)
together
<03162>_,
and one
<0259>
of them die
<04191> (8804)_,
and have no child
<01121>_,
the wife
<0802>
of the dead
<04191> (8801)
shall not marry without
<02351>
unto a stranger
<0376> <02114> (8801)_:
her husband's brother
<02993>
shall go in
<0935> (8799)
unto her, and take
<03947> (8804)
her to him to wife
<0802>_,
and perform the duty of an husband's brother
<02992> (8762)
unto her. {her husband's...: or, her next kinsman}
And it shall be, [that] the firstborn
<01060>
which she beareth
<03205> (8799)
shall succeed
<06965> (8799)
in the name
<08034>
of his brother
<0251>
[which is] dead
<04191> (8801)_,
that his name
<08034>
be not put out
<04229> (8735)
of Israel
<03478>_.
And if the man
<0376>
like
<02654> (8799)
not to take
<03947> (8800)
his brother's wife
<02994>_,
then let his brother's wife
<02994>
go up
<05927> (8804)
to the gate
<08179>
unto the elders
<02205>_,
and say
<0559> (8804)_,
My husband's brother
<02993>
refuseth
<03985> (8765)
to raise up
<06965> (8687)
unto his brother
<0251>
a name
<08034>
in Israel
<03478>_,
he will
<014> (8804)
not perform the duty of my husband's brother
<02992> (8763)_.
{brother's: or, next kinsman's}
Then the elders
<02205>
of his city
<05892>
shall call
<07121> (8804)
him, and speak
<01696> (8765)
unto him: and [if] he stand
<05975> (8804)
[to it], and say
<0559> (8804)_,
I like
<02654> (8804)
not to take
<03947> (8800)
her;
Then shall his brother's wife
<02994>
come
<05066> (8738)
unto him in the presence
<05869>
of the elders
<02205>_,
and loose
<02502> (8804)
his shoe
<05275>
from off his foot
<07272>_,
and spit
<03417> (8804)
in his face
<06440>_,
and shall answer
<06030> (8804)
and say
<0559> (8804)_,
So shall it be done
<06213> (8735)
unto that man
<0376>
that will not build up
<01129> (8799)
his brother's
<0251>
house
<01004>_.
And his name
<08034>
shall be called
<07121> (8738)
in Israel
<03478>_,
The house
<01004>
of him that hath his shoe
<05275>
loosed
<02502> (8803)_.
When men
<0582>
strive
<05327> (8735)
together
<03162>
one with another
<0251> <0376>_,
and the wife
<0802>
of the one
<0259>
draweth near
<07126> (8804)
for to deliver
<05337> (8687)
her husband
<0376>
out of the hand
<03027>
of him that smiteth
<05221> (8688)
him, and putteth forth
<07971> (8804)
her hand
<03027>_,
and taketh
<02388> (8689)
him by the secrets
<04016>_:
Then thou shalt cut off
<07112> (8804)
her hand
<03709>_,
thine eye
<05869>
shall not pity
<02347> (8799)
[her].
Thou shalt not have in thy bag
<03599>
divers weights
<068> <068>_,
a great
<01419>
and a small
<06996>_.
{divers...: Heb. a stone and a stone}
Thou shalt not have in thine house
<01004>
divers measures
<0374> <0374>_,
a great
<01419>
and a small
<06996>_.
{divers...: Heb. an ephah and an ephah}
[But] thou shalt have a perfect
<08003>
and just
<06664>
weight
<068>_,
a perfect
<08003>
and just
<06664>
measure
<0374>
shalt thou have: that thy days
<03117>
may be lengthened
<0748> (8686)
in the land
<0127>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee.
For all that do
<06213> (8802)
such things
<0428>_,
[and] all that do
<06213> (8802)
unrighteously
<05766>_,
[are] an abomination
<08441>
unto the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>_.
Remember
<02142> (8800)
what Amalek
<06002>
did
<06213> (8804)
unto thee by the way
<01870>_,
when ye were come forth
<03318> (8800)
out of Egypt
<04714>_;
How he met
<07136> (8804)
thee by the way
<01870>_,
and smote the hindmost
<02179> (8762)
of thee, [even] all [that were] feeble
<02826> (8737)
behind
<0310>
thee, when thou [wast] faint
<05889>
and weary
<03023>_;
and he feared
<03373>
not God
<0430>_.
Therefore it shall be, when the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
hath given thee rest
<05117> (8687)
from all thine enemies
<0341> (8802)
round about
<05439>_,
in the land
<0776>
which the LORD
<03068>
thy God
<0430>
giveth
<05414> (8802)
thee [for] an inheritance
<05159>
to possess
<03423> (8800)
it, [that] thou shalt blot out
<04229> (8799)
the remembrance
<02143>
of Amalek
<06002>
from under heaven
<08064>_;
thou shalt not forget
<07911> (8799)
[it].
