Book 05 : TORAH - DEVARIM (DEUTERONOMY) - Chapter 024
24:001
When a man taketh a wife, and marrieth her, then it cometh
to pass, if she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some unseemly
thing in her, that he writeth her a bill of divorcement, and giveth it in her
hand, and sendeth her out of his house
24:002
and she departeth out of his house, and goeth and becometh
another man's wife
24:003
and the latter husband hateth her, and writeth her a bill
of divorcement, and giveth it in her hand, and sendeth her out of his house; or
if the latter husband die, who took her to be his wife
24:004
her former husband, who sent her away, may not take her
again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is abomination before
HaShem; and thou shalt not cause the land to sin, which HaShem thy G-d giveth
thee for an inheritance
24:005
When a man taketh a new wife, he shall not go out in the
host, neither shall he be charged with any business; he shall be free for his
house one year, and shall cheer his wife whom he hath taken
24:006
No man shall take the mill or the upper millstone to
pledge; for he taketh a man's life to pledge
24:007
If a man be found stealing any of his brethren of the
children of Israel, and he deal with him as a slave, and sell him; then that
thief shall die; so shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee
24:008
Take heed in the plague of leprosy, that thou observe
diligently, and do according to all that the priests the Levites shall teach
you, as I commanded them, so ye shall observe to do
24:009
Remember what HaShem thy G-d did unto Miriam, by the way as
ye came forth out of Egypt
24:010
When thou dost lend thy neighbour any manner of loan, thou
shalt not go into his house to fetch his pledge
24:011
Thou shalt stand without, and the man to whom thou dost
lend shall bring forth the pledge without unto thee
24:012
And if he be a poor man, thou shalt not sleep with his
pledge
24:013
thou shalt surely restore to him the pledge when the sun
goeth down, that he may sleep in his garment, and bless thee; and it shall be
righteousness unto thee before HaShem thy G-d
24:014
Thou shalt not oppress a hired servant that is poor and
needy, whether he be of thy brethren, or of thy strangers that are in thy land
within thy gates
24:015
In the same day thou shalt give him his hire, neither
shall the sun go down upon it; for he is poor, and setteth his heart upon it:
lest he cry against thee unto HaShem and it be sin in thee
24:016
The fathers shall not be put to death for the children,
neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers; every man shall be
put to death for his own sin
24:017
Thou shalt not pervert the justice due to the stranger, or
to the fatherless; nor take the widow's raiment to pledge
24:018
But thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt,
and HaShem thy G-d redeemed thee thence; therefore I command thee to do this
thing
24:019
When thou reapest thy harvest in thy field, and hast
forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go back to fetch it; it shall be for
the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow; that HaShem thy G-d may
bless thee in all the work of thy hands
24:020
When thou beatest thine olive-tree, thou shalt not go over
the boughs again; it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the
widow
24:021
When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt
not glean it after thee; it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and
for the widow
24:022
And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the
land of Egypt; therefore I command thee to do this thing
