[1]If there be a controversyH7379 between menH582, and they comeH5066[H8738] unto judgmentH4941, that the judges may judgeH8199[H8804] them; then they shall justifyH6663[H8689] the righteousH6662, and condemnH7561[H8689] the wickedH7563.
[2]And it shall be, if the wicked manH7563 be worthyH1121 to be beatenH5221[H8687], that the judgeH8199[H8802] shall cause him to lie downH5307[H8689], and to be beatenH5221[H8689] before his faceH6440, accordingH1767 to his faultH7564, by a certain numberH4557.
[3]FortyH705 stripesH5221[H8686] he may give him, and not exceedH3254[H8686]: lest, if he should exceedH3254[H8686], and beatH5221[H8687] him above these with manyH7227 stripesH4347, then thy brotherH251 should seem vileH7034[H8738] unto theeH5869.
[4]Thou shalt not muzzleH2629[H8799] the oxH7794 when he treadeth outH1778 the cornH8800.
[5]If brethrenH251 dwellH3427[H8799] togetherH3162, and oneH259 of them dieH4191[H8804], and have no childH1121, the wifeH802 of the deadH4191[H8801] shall not marry withoutH2351 unto a strangerH376[H2114][H8801]: her husband's brotherH2993 shall go inH935[H8799] unto her, and takeH3947[H8804] her to him to wifeH802, and perform the duty of an husband's brotherH2992 unto herH8762.
[6]And it shall be, that the firstbornH1060 which she bearethH3205[H8799] shall succeedH6965[H8799] in the nameH8034 of his brotherH251 which is deadH4191[H8801], that his nameH8034 be not put outH4229[H8735] of IsraelH3478.
[7]And if the manH376 likeH2654[H8799] not to takeH3947[H8800] his brother's wifeH2994, then let his brother's wifeH2994 go upH5927[H8804] to the gateH8179 unto the eldersH2205, and sayH559[H8804], My husband's brotherH2993 refusethH3985[H8765] to raise upH6965[H8687] unto his brotherH251 a nameH8034 in IsraelH3478, he willH14[H8804] not perform the duty of my husband's brotherH2992.[H8763]
[8]Then the eldersH2205 of his cityH5892 shall callH7121[H8804] him, and speakH1696[H8765] unto him: and if he standH5975[H8804] to it, and sayH559[H8804], I likeH2654[H8804] not to takeH3947 herH8800;
[9]Then shall his brother's wifeH2994 comeH5066[H8738] unto him in the presenceH5869 of the eldersH2205, and looseH2502[H8804] his shoeH5275 from off his footH7272, and spitH3417[H8804] in his faceH6440, and shall answerH6030[H8804] and sayH559[H8804], So shall it be doneH6213[H8735] unto that manH376 that will not build upH1129[H8799] his brother'sH251 houseH1004.
[10]And his nameH8034 shall be calledH7121[H8738] in IsraelH3478, The houseH1004 of him that hath his shoeH5275 loosedH2502.[H8803]
[11]When menH582 striveH5327[H8735] togetherH3162 one with anotherH251[H376], and the wifeH802 of the oneH259 draweth nearH7126[H8804] for to deliverH5337[H8687] her husbandH376 out of the handH3027 of him that smitethH5221[H8688] him, and putteth forthH7971[H8804] her handH3027, and takethH2388[H8689] him by the secretsH4016:
[12]Then thou shalt cut offH7112[H8804] her handH3709, thine eyeH5869 shall not pityH2347 herH8799.
[13]Thou shalt not have in thy bagH3599 divers weightsH68[H68], a greatH1419 and a smallH6996.
[14]Thou shalt not have in thine houseH1004 divers measuresH374[H374], a greatH1419 and a smallH6996.
[15]But thou shalt have a perfectH8003 and justH6664 weightH68, a perfectH8003 and justH6664 measureH374 shalt thou have: that thy daysH3117 may be lengthenedH748[H8686] in the landH127 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 theeH8802.
[16]For all that doH6213[H8802] such thingsH428, and all that doH6213[H8802] unrighteouslyH5766, are an abominationH8441 unto the LORDH3068 thy GodH430.
[17]RememberH2142[H8800] what AmalekH6002 didH6213[H8804] unto thee by the wayH1870, when ye were come forthH3318[H8800] out of EgyptH4714;
[18]How he metH7136[H8804] thee by the wayH1870, and smote the hindmostH2179[H8762] of thee, even all that were feebleH2826[H8737] behindH310 thee, when thou wast faintH5889 and wearyH3023; and he fearedH3373 not GodH430.
[19]Therefore it shall be, when the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath given thee restH5117[H8687] from all thine enemiesH341[H8802] round aboutH5439, in the landH776 which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414[H8802] thee for an inheritanceH5159 to possessH3423[H8800] it, that thou shalt blot outH4229[H8799] the remembranceH2143 of AmalekH6002 from under heavenH8064; thou shalt not forgetH7911 itH8799.
