When the Lord your God brings you into the land you are to possess, you must pronounce the blessing on Mount Gerizim and the curse on Mount Ebal. ¹ 

You shall do the same to his donkey, his clothes, or anything else your neighbor ¹  has lost and you have found; you must not refuse to get involved. ² 

The person who pays no attention ¹  to the priest currently serving the Lord your God there, or to the verdict – that person must die, so that you may purge evil from Israel.

If a man is found kidnapping a person from among his fellow Israelites, ¹  and regards him as mere property ²  and sells him, that kidnapper ³  must die. In this way you will purge ⁴  evil from among you.

You must gather all of its plunder into the middle of the plaza ¹  and burn the city and all its plunder as a whole burnt offering to the Lord your God. It will be an abandoned ruin ²  forever – it must never be rebuilt again.

As for that prophet or dreamer, ¹  he must be executed because he encouraged rebellion against the Lord your God who brought you from the land of Egypt, redeeming you from that place of slavery, and because he has tried to entice you from the way the Lord your God has commanded you to go. In this way you must purge out evil from within. ² 

You must not intermarry with them. Do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons,

You must not tremble in their presence, for the Lord your God, who is present among you, is a great and awesome God.

Only the holy things and votive offerings that belong to you, you must pick up and take to the place the Lord will choose. ¹ 

As for the Levites in your villages, you must not ignore them, for they have no allotment or inheritance along with you.

You must pursue justice alone ¹  so that you may live and inherit the land the Lord your God is giving you.

He must eat the same share they do, despite any profits he may gain from the sale of his family’s inheritance. ¹ 

There must never be a sacred prostitute ¹  among the young women ²  of Israel nor a sacred male prostitute ³  among the young men ⁴  of Israel.

You must not charge interest on a loan to your fellow Israelite, ¹  whether on money, food, or anything else that has been loaned with interest.

One must not take either lower or upper millstones as security on a loan, for that is like taking a life itself as security. ¹ 

You must stand outside and the person to whom you are making the loan will bring out to you what he is offering as security. ¹ 

Then you must build an altar there to the Lord your God, an altar of stones – do not use an iron tool on them.

You must by all means destroy ¹  all the places where the nations you are about to dispossess worship their gods – on the high mountains and hills and under every leafy tree. ² 

If your fellow Hebrew ¹  – whether male or female ²  – is sold to you and serves you for six years, then in the seventh year you must let that servant ³  go free. ⁴ 

I will write on the tablets the same words ¹  that were on the first tablets you broke, and you must put them into the ark.”
