23:001

Thou shalt not utter a false report; put not thy hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness

23:002

Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou bear witness in a cause to turn aside after a multitude to pervert justice

23:003

neither shalt thou favour a poor man in his cause

23:004

If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again

23:005

If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under its burden, thou shalt forbear to pass by him; thou shalt surely release it with him

23:006

Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause

23:007

Keep thee far from a false matter; and the innocent and righteous slay thou not; for I will not justify the wicked

23:008

And thou shalt take no gift; for a gift blindeth them that have sight, and perverteth the words of the righteous

23:009

And a stranger shalt thou not oppress; for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and gather in the increase thereof

23:011

but the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and lie fallow, that the poor of thy people may eat; and what they leave the beast of the field shall eat. In like manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thy oliveyard

23:012

Six days thou shalt do thy work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest; that thine ox and thine ass may have rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger, may be refreshed

23:013

And in all things that I have said unto you take ye heed; and make no mention of the name of other gods, neither let it be heard out of thy mouth

23:014

Three times thou shalt keep a feast unto Me in the year

23:015

The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep; seven days thou shalt eat unleavened bread, as I commanded thee, at the time appointed in the month Abib--for in it thou camest out from Egypt; and none shall appear before Me empty

23:016

and the feast of harvest, the first-fruits of thy labours, which thou sowest in the field; and the feast of ingathering, at the end of the year, when thou gatherest in thy labours out of the field

23:017

Three times in the year all thy males shall appear before the L-rd GOD

23:018

Thou shalt not offer the blood of My sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the fat of My feast remain all night until the morning

23:019

The choicest first-fruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of HaShem thy G-d. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in its mother's milk. the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared

23:021

Take heed of him, and hearken unto his voice; be not rebellious against him; for he will not pardon your transgression; for My name is in him

23:022

But if thou shalt indeed hearken unto his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries

23:023

For Mine angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Canaanite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite; and I will cut them off

23:024

Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their doings; but thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and break in pieces their pillars

23:025

And ye shall serve HaShem your G-d, and He will bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee

23:026

None shall miscarry, nor be barren, in thy land; the number of thy days I will fulfil

23:027

I will send My terror before thee, and will discomfit all the people to whom thou shalt come, and I will make all thine enemies turn their backs unto thee

23:028

And I will send the hornet before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee

23:029

I will not drive them out from before thee in one year, lest the land become desolate, and the beasts of the field multiply against thee

23:030

By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou be increased, and inherit the land

23:031

And I will set thy border from the Red Sea even unto the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness unto the River; for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand; and thou shalt drive them out before thee

23:032

Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods

23:033

They shall not dwell in thy land--lest they make thee sin against Me, for thou wilt serve their gods--for they will be a snare unto thee
