If a person commits a sin punishable by death and is executed, and you hang the corpse on a tree,

Take note – I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse:

You must not show pity; the principle will be a life for a life, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth, a hand for a hand, and a foot for a foot.

For the Lord your God is a consuming fire; he is a jealous God.

If a false witness testifies against another person and accuses him of a crime,

You must not have in your bag different stone weights, a heavy and a light one.

Suppose a man marries a woman, has sexual relations with her, and then rejects her,

You must not have in your house different measuring containers, a large and a small one.

You are to have a place outside the camp to serve as a latrine.

Suppose a prophet or one who foretells by dreams should appear among you and show you a sign or wonder,

one who casts spells, one who conjures up spirits, a practitioner of the occult, or a necromancer.

You must not pervert justice due a resident foreigner or an orphan, or take a widow’s garment as security for a loan.

Suppose a man comes across a virgin who is not engaged and overpowers and rapes her and they are discovered.

You must not erect a sacred pillar, a thing the Lord your God detests.

If a virgin is engaged to a man and another man meets her in the city and has sexual relations with her,

One must not take either lower or upper millstones as security on a loan, for that is like taking a life itself as security.

You will be engaged to a woman and another man will rape her. You will build a house but not live in it. You will plant a vineyard but not even begin to use it.

There must never be a sacred prostitute among the young women of Israel nor a sacred male prostitute among the young men of Israel.

Moses delivered to us a law, an inheritance for the assembly of Jacob.

For the Lord your God is bringing you to a good land, a land of brooks, springs, and fountains flowing forth in valleys and hills,
