If a manH376 shall stealH1589 an oxH7794, or a sheepH7716, and killH2873 it, or sellH4376 it; he shall restoreH7999 fiveH2568 oxenH1241 for an oxH7794, and fourH702 sheepH6629 for a sheepH7716. {or a sheep: or, or a goat}
If a thiefH1590 be foundH4672 breaking upH4290, and be smittenH5221 that he dieH4191, there shall no bloodH1818 be shed for him.
If the sunH8121 be risenH2224 upon him, there shall be bloodH1818 shed for him; for he should make fullH7999 restitutionH7999; if he have nothing, then he shall be soldH4376 for his theftH1591.
If the theftH1591 be certainlyH4672 foundH4672 in his handH3027 aliveH2416, whether it be oxH7794, or assH2543, or sheepH7716; he shall restoreH7999 doubleH8147.
If a manH376 shall cause a fieldH7704 or vineyardH3754 to be eatenH1197, and shall putH7971 in his beastH1165, and shall feedH1197 in another man'sH312 fieldH7704; of the bestH4315 of his own fieldH7704, and of the bestH4315 of his own vineyardH3754, shall he make restitutionH7999.
If fireH784 break outH3318, and catchH4672 in thornsH6975, so that the stacks of cornH1430, or the standing cornH7054, or the fieldH7704, be consumedH398 therewith; he that kindledH1197 the fireH1200 shall surelyH7999 make restitutionH7999.
If a manH376 shall deliverH5414 unto his neighbourH7453 moneyH3701 or stuffH3627 to keepH8104, and it be stolenH1589 out of the man'sH376 houseH1004; if the thiefH1590 be foundH4672, let him payH7999 doubleH8147.
If the thiefH1590 be notH3808 foundH4672, then the masterH1167 of the houseH1004 shall be broughtH7126 unto the judgesH430, to see whether he have putH7971 his handH3027 unto his neighbour'sH7453 goodsH4399.
For all mannerH1697 of trespassH6588, whether it be for oxH7794, for assH2543, for sheepH7716, for raimentH8008, or for any manner of lost thingH9, which another challengethH559 to be his, the causeH1697 of both partiesH8147 shall comeH935 before the judgesH430; and whom the judgesH430 shall condemnH7561, he shall payH7999 doubleH8147 unto his neighbourH7453.
If a manH376 deliverH5414 unto his neighbourH7453 an assH2543, or an oxH7794, or a sheepH7716, or any beastH929, to keepH8104; and it dieH4191, or be hurtH7665, or driven awayH7617, no man seeingH7200 it:
Then shall an oathH7621 of the LORDH3068 be between them bothH8147, that he hath not putH7971 his handH3027 unto his neighbour'sH7453 goodsH4399; and the ownerH1167 of it shall acceptH3947 thereof, and he shall not make it goodH7999.
And if it be stolenH1589+H1589 from him, he shall make restitutionH7999 unto the ownerH1167 thereof.
If it be torn in piecesH2963+H2963, then let him bringH935 it for witnessH5707, and he shall not make goodH7999 that which was tornH2966.
And if a manH376 borrowH7592 ought of his neighbourH7453, and it be hurtH7665, or dieH4191, the ownerH1167 thereof being not with itH5973, he shall surelyH7999 make it goodH7999.
But if the ownerH1167 thereof be with it, he shall not make it goodH7999: if it be an hiredH7916 thing, it cameH935 for his hireH7939.
And if a manH376 enticeH6601 a maidH1330 that is not betrothedH781, and lieH7901 with her, he shall surelyH4117 endowH4117 her to be his wifeH802.
If her fatherH1 utterlyH3985 refuseH3985 to giveH5414 her unto him, he shall payH8254 moneyH3701 according to the dowryH4119 of virginsH1330. {pay: Heb. weigh}

Whosoever liethH7901 with a beastH929 shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191.
He that sacrificethH2076 unto any godH430, saveH1115 unto the LORDH3068 only, he shall be utterly destroyedH2763.
Thou shalt neither vexH3238 a strangerH1616, nor oppressH3905 him: for ye were strangersH1616 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
Ye shall not afflictH6031 any widowH490, or fatherless childH3490.
IfH518 thou afflictH6031 them in any wiseH6031, and they cryH6817 at allH6817 unto me, I will surelyH8085 hearH8085 their cryH6818;
And my wrathH639 shall wax hotH2734, and I will killH2026 you with the swordH2719; and your wivesH802 shall be widowsH490, and your childrenH1121 fatherlessH3490.
If thou lendH3867 moneyH3701 to any of my peopleH5971 that is poorH6041 by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurerH5383, neither shalt thou layH7760 upon him usuryH5392.
If thou at allH2254 takeH2254 thy neighbour'sH7453 raimentH8008 to pledgeH2254, thou shalt deliverH7725 it unto him byH5704 that the sunH8121 goeth downH935:
For that is his coveringH3682 only, it is his raimentH8071 for his skinH5785: wherein shall he sleepH7901? and it shall come to pass, when he criethH6817 unto me, that I will hearH8085; for I am graciousH2587.
Thou shalt not revileH7043 the godsH430, nor curseH779 the rulerH5387 of thy peopleH5971. {gods: or, judges}
Thou shalt not delayH309 to offer the first of thy ripe fruitsH4395, and of thy liquorsH1831: the firstbornH1060 of thy sonsH1121 shalt thou giveH5414 unto me. {the first…: Heb. thy fulness} {liquors: Heb. tear}
LikewiseH3651 shalt thou doH6213 with thine oxenH7794, and with thy sheepH6629: sevenH7651 daysH3117 it shall be with his damH517; on the eighthH8066 dayH3117 thou shalt giveH5414 it me.
And ye shall be holyH6944 menH582 unto me: neither shall ye eatH398 any fleshH1320 that is torn of beastsH2966 in the fieldH7704; ye shall castH7993 it to the dogsH3611.

And if thy brotherH251 be waxen poorH4134, and fallen in decayH4131 with theeH3027; then thou shalt relieveH2388 him: yea, though he be a strangerH1616, or a sojournerH8453; that he may liveH2416 with thee. {fallen…: Heb. his hand faileth} {relieve: Heb. strengthen}
TakeH3947 thou no usuryH5392 of him, or increaseH8636: but fearH3372 thy GodH430; that thy brotherH251 may liveH2416 with thee.
Thou shalt not giveH5414 him thy moneyH3701 upon usuryH5392, nor lendH5414 him thy victualsH400 for increaseH4768.
Thou shalt not lend upon usuryH5391 to thy brotherH251; usuryH5392 of moneyH3701, usuryH5392 of victualsH400, usuryH5392 of any thingH1697 that is lent upon usuryH5391:
Unto a strangerH5237 thou mayest lend upon usuryH5391; but unto thy brotherH251 thou shalt not lend upon usuryH5391: that the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 may blessH1288 thee in all that thou settestH4916 thine handH3027 to in the landH776 whither thou goestH935 to possessH3423 it.
Now there criedH6817 a certainH259 womanH802 of the wivesH802 of the sonsH1121 of the prophetsH5030 unto ElishaH477, sayingH559, Thy servantH5650 my husbandH376 is deadH4191; and thou knowestH3045 that thy servantH5650 did fearH3373 the LORDH3068: and the creditorH5383 is comeH935 to takeH3947 unto him my twoH8147 sonsH3206 to be bondmenH5650.
Then she cameH935 and toldH5046 the manH376 of GodH430. And he saidH559, GoH3212, sellH4376 the oilH8081, and payH7999 thy debtH5386, and liveH2421 thou and thy childrenH1121 of the restH3498. {debt: or, creditor}
For there wereH3426 that saidH559, We, our sonsH1121, and our daughtersH1323, are manyH7227: therefore we take upH3947 cornH1715 for them, that we may eatH398, and liveH2421.
Some also there wereH3426 that saidH559, We have mortgagedH6148 our landsH7704, vineyardsH3754, and housesH1004, that we might buyH3947 cornH1715, because of the dearthH7458.
There wereH3426 also that saidH559, We have borrowedH3867 moneyH3701 for the king'sH4428 tributeH4060, and that upon our landsH7704 and vineyardsH3754.
Yet now our fleshH1320 is as the fleshH1320 of our brethrenH251, our childrenH1121 as their childrenH1121: and, lo, we bring into bondageH3533 our sonsH1121 and our daughtersH1323 to be servantsH5650, and some of our daughtersH1323 areH3426 brought unto bondageH3533 already: neither is it in our powerH410+H3027 to redeem them; for other menH312 have our landsH7704 and vineyardsH3754.
Then I consultedH4427 with myselfH3820, and I rebukedH7378 the noblesH2715, and the rulersH5461, and saidH559 unto them, Ye exactH5378+H5383+H5375 usuryH4855, every oneH376 of his brotherH251. And I setH5414 a greatH1419 assemblyH6952 against them. {I consulted…: Heb. my heart consulted in me}
I likewise, and my brethrenH251, and my servantsH5288, might exactH5383 of them moneyH3701 and cornH1715: I pray you, let us leave offH5800 this usuryH4855.
RestoreH7725, I pray you, to them, even this dayH3117, their landsH7704, their vineyardsH3754, their oliveyardsH2132, and their housesH1004, also the hundredthH3967 part of the moneyH3701, and of the cornH1715, the wineH8492, and the oilH3323, that ye exactH5383 of them.
He that putteth not outH5414 his moneyH3701 to usuryH5392, nor takethH3947 rewardH7810 against the innocentH5355. He that doethH6213 these things shall neverH5769 be movedH4131.
He that by usuryH5392 and unjust gainH8636 increasethH7235 his substanceH1952, he shall gatherH6908 it for him that will pityH2603 the poorH1800. {unjust…: Heb. by increase}
WoeH188 is me, my motherH517, that thou hast borneH3205 me a manH376 of strifeH7379 and a manH376 of contentionH4066 to the whole earthH776! I have neither lent on usuryH5383, nor men have lent to me on usuryH5383; yet every one of them doth curseH7043 me.
He that hath not given forthH5414 upon usuryH5392, neither hath takenH3947 any increaseH8636, that hath withdrawnH7725 his handH3027 from iniquityH5766, hath executedH6213 trueH571 judgmentH4941 between manH376 and manH376,
That hath taken offH7725 his handH3027 from the poorH6041, that hath not receivedH3947 usuryH5392 nor increaseH8636, hath executedH6213 my judgmentsH4941, hath walkedH1980 in my statutesH2708; he shall not dieH4191 for the iniquityH5771 of his fatherH1, he shall surelyH2421 liveH2421.
