Deuteronomy 25:1-8

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;
