When a manH376 hath takenH3947 a wifeH802, and marriedH1166 her, and it come to pass that she findH4672 no favourH2580 in his eyesH5869, because he hath foundH4672 someH1697 uncleannessH6172 in her: then let him writeH3789 her a billH5612 of divorcementH3748, and giveH5414 it in her handH3027, and sendH7971 her out of his houseH1004. {some…: Heb. matter of nakedness} {divorcement: Heb. cutting off}
And when she is departed outH3318 of his houseH1004, she may goH1980 and be anotherH312 man'sH376 wife.
And if the latterH314 husbandH376 hateH8130 her, and writeH3789 her a billH5612 of divorcementH3748, and givethH5414 it in her handH3027, and sendethH7971 her out of his houseH1004; or if the latterH314 husbandH376 dieH4191, which tookH3947 her to be his wifeH802;
Her formerH7223 husbandH1167, which sent her awayH7971, mayH3201 not takeH3947 her againH7725 to be his wifeH802, afterH310 that she is defiledH2930; for that is abominationH8441 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068: and thou shalt not cause the landH776 to sinH2398, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 givethH5414 thee for an inheritanceH5159.
When a manH376 hath takenH3947 a newH2319 wifeH802, he shall not go outH3318 to warH6635, neither shall he be chargedH5674 with any businessH1697: but he shall be freeH5355 at homeH1004 oneH259 yearH8141, and shall cheer upH8055 his wifeH802 which he hath takenH3947. {neither…: Heb. not any thing shall pass upon him}
No man shall takeH2254 the netherH7347 or the upper millstoneH7393 to pledgeH2254: for he takethH2254 a man's lifeH5315 to pledgeH2254.
If a manH376 be foundH4672 stealingH1589 anyH5315 of his brethrenH251 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, and maketh merchandiseH6014 of him, or sellethH4376 him; then that thiefH1590 shall dieH4191; and thou shalt putH1197 evilH7451 awayH1197 from amongH7130 you.
Take heedH8104 in the plagueH5061 of leprosyH6883, that thou observeH8104 diligentlyH3966, and doH6213 according to all that the priestsH3548 the LevitesH3881 shall teachH3384 you: as I commandedH6680 them, so ye shall observeH8104 to doH6213.
RememberH2142 what the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 didH6213 unto MiriamH4813 by the wayH1870, after that ye were come forthH3318 out of EgyptH4714.
When thou dost lendH5383 thy brotherH7453 anyH3972 thingH4859, thou shalt not goH935 into his houseH1004 to fetchH5670 his pledgeH5667. {lend…: Heb. lend the loan of any thing to, etc}
Thou shalt standH5975 abroadH2351, and the manH376 to whom thou dost lendH5383 shall bring outH3318 the pledgeH5667 abroadH2351 unto thee.
And if the manH376 be poorH6041, thou shalt not sleepH7901 with his pledgeH5667:
In any caseH7725 thou shalt deliverH7725 him the pledgeH5667 againH7725 when the sunH8121 goeth downH935, that he may sleepH7901 in his own raimentH8008, and blessH1288 thee: and it shall be righteousnessH6666 unto thee beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430.
Thou shalt not oppressH6231 an hired servantH7916 that is poorH6041 and needyH34, whether he be of thy brethrenH251, or of thy strangersH1616 that are in thy landH776 within thy gatesH8179:
At his dayH3117 thou shalt giveH5414 him his hireH7939, neither shall the sunH8121 go downH935 upon it; for he is poorH6041, and settethH5375 his heartH5315 upon it: lest he cryH7121 against thee unto the LORDH3068, and it be sinH2399 unto thee. {setteth…: Heb. lifteth his soul unto it}
The fathersH1 shall not be put to deathH4191 for the childrenH1121, neither shall the childrenH1121 be put to deathH4191 for the fathersH1: every manH376 shall be put to deathH4191 for his own sinH2399.
Thou shalt not pervertH5186 the judgmentH4941 of the strangerH1616, nor of the fatherlessH3490; nor takeH2254 a widow'sH490 raimentH899 to pledgeH2254:
But thou shalt rememberH2142 that thou wast a bondmanH5650 in EgyptH4714, and the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 redeemedH6299 thee thence: therefore I commandH6680 thee to doH6213 this thingH1697.
When thou cuttest downH7114 thine harvestH7105 in thy fieldH7704, and hast forgotH7911 a sheafH6016 in the fieldH7704, thou shalt not go againH7725 to fetchH3947 it: it shall be for the strangerH1616, for the fatherlessH3490, and for the widowH490: that the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 may blessH1288 thee in all the workH4639 of thine handsH3027.
When thou beatestH2251 thine olive treeH2132, thou shalt not go over the boughsH6286 againH310: it shall be for the strangerH1616, for the fatherlessH3490, and for the widowH490. {go…: Heb. bough it after thee}
When thou gatherestH1219 the grapes of thy vineyardH3754, thou shalt not gleanH5953 it afterwardH310: it shall be for the strangerH1616, for the fatherlessH3490, and for the widowH490. {afterward: Heb. after thee}
And thou shalt rememberH2142 that thou wast a bondmanH5650 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714: therefore I commandH6680 thee to doH6213 this thingH1697.

Thou shalt not wrestH5186 judgmentH4941; thou shalt not respectH5234 personsH6440, neither takeH3947 a giftH7810: for a giftH7810 doth blindH5786 the eyesH5869 of the wiseH2450, and pervertH5557 the wordsH1697 of the righteousH6662. {words: or, matters}
If thou at allH2254 takeH2254 thy neighbour'sH7453 raimentH8008 to pledgeH2254, thou shalt deliverH7725 it unto him byH5704 that the sunH8121 goeth downH935:
CursedH779 be he that pervertethH5186 the judgmentH4941 of the strangerH1616, fatherlessH3490, and widowH490. And all the peopleH5971 shall sayH559, AmenH543.
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 neither vexH3238 a strangerH1616, nor oppressH3905 him: for ye were strangersH1616 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
Thou shalt not followH310 a multitudeH7227 to do evilH7451; neither shalt thou speakH6030 in a causeH7379 to declineH5186 afterH310 manyH7227 to wrestH5186 judgment: {speak: Heb. answer}
Also thou shalt not oppressH3905 a strangerH1616: for ye knowH3045 the heartH5315 of a strangerH1616, seeingH3588 ye were strangersH1616 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714. {heart: Heb. soul}
Behold, here I am: witnessH6030 against me before the LORDH3068, and before his anointedH4899: whose oxH7794 have I takenH3947? or whose assH2543 have I takenH3947? or whom have I defraudedH6231? whom have I oppressedH7533? or of whose handH3027 have I received any bribeH3724 to blindH5956 mine eyesH5869 therewith? and I will restoreH7725 it you. {bribe: Heb. ransom} {to blind…: or, that I should hide mine eyes at him}
And they saidH559, Thou hast not defraudedH6231 us, nor oppressedH7533 us, neither hast thou takenH3947 oughtH3972 of any man'sH376 handH3027.
But as for the mightyH2220 manH376, he had the earthH776; and the honourable manH5375+H6440 dweltH3427 in it. {mighty…: Heb. man of arm} {honourable…: Heb. eminent, or, accepted for countenance}
Thou hast sentH7971 widowsH490 away emptyH7387, and the armsH2220 of the fatherlessH3490 have been brokenH1792.
When the earH241 heardH8085 me, then it blessedH833 me; and when the eyeH5869 sawH7200 me, it gave witnessH5749 to me:
Because I deliveredH4422 the poorH6041 that criedH7768, and the fatherlessH3490, and him that had none to helpH5826 him.
The blessingH1293 of him that was ready to perishH6 cameH935 upon me: and I caused the widow'sH490 heartH3820 to sing for joyH7442.
I putH3847 on righteousnessH6664, and it clothedH3847 me: my judgmentH4941 was as a robeH4598 and a diademH6797.
I was eyesH5869 to the blindH5787, and feetH7272 was I to the lameH6455.
I was a fatherH1 to the poorH34: and the causeH7379 which I knewH3045 not I searched outH2713.
And I brakeH7665 the jawsH4973 of the wickedH5767, and pluckedH7993 the spoilH2964 out of his teethH8127. {the jaws: Heb. the jawteeth, or, the grinders} {plucked: Heb. cast}
A PsalmH4210 of AsaphH623. GodH430 standethH5324 in the congregationH5712 of the mightyH410; he judgethH8199 amongH7130 the godsH430. {of Asaph: or, for Asaph}
How long will ye judgeH8199 unjustlyH5766, and acceptH5375 the personsH6440 of the wickedH7563? SelahH5542.
DefendH8199 the poorH1800 and fatherlessH3490: do justiceH6663 to the afflictedH6041 and needyH7326. {Defend: Heb. Judge}
DeliverH6403 the poorH1800 and needyH34: ridH5337 them out of the handH3027 of the wickedH7563.
They knowH3045 not, neither will they understandH995; they walkH1980 on in darknessH2825: all the foundationsH4144 of the earthH776 are out of courseH4131. {out…: Heb. moved}
LORDH3068, how long shall the wickedH7563, how long shall the wickedH7563 triumphH5937?
How long shall they utterH5042 and speakH1696 hard thingsH6277? and all the workersH6466 of iniquityH205 boastH559 themselves?
They break in piecesH1792 thy peopleH5971, O LORDH3068, and afflictH6031 thine heritageH5159.
They slayH2026 the widowH490 and the strangerH1616, and murderH7523 the fatherlessH3490.
Shall the throneH3678 of iniquityH1942 have fellowshipH2266 with thee, which framethH3335 mischiefH5999 by a lawH2706?
They gather themselves togetherH1413 against the soulH5315 of the righteousH6662, and condemnH7561 the innocentH5355 bloodH1818.
RobH1497 not the poorH1800, because he is poorH1800: neither oppressH1792 the afflictedH6041 in the gateH8179:
For the LORDH3068 will pleadH7378 their causeH7379, and spoilH6906 the soulH5315 of those that spoiledH6906 them.
Lest they drinkH8354, and forgetH7911 the lawH2710, and pervertH8138 the judgmentH1779 of any of the afflictedH1121+H6040. {prevert: Heb. alter} {of any…: Heb. of all the sons of affliction}
If thou seestH7200 the oppressionH6233 of the poorH7326, and violentH1499 perverting of judgmentH4941 and justiceH6664 in a provinceH4082, marvelH8539 not at the matterH2656: for he that is higherH1364 than the highestH1364 regardethH8104; and there be higherH1364 than theyH5921. {at the…: Heb. at the will, or, purpose}
Thy princesH8269 are rebelliousH5637, and companionsH2270 of thievesH1590: every one lovethH157 giftsH7810, and followethH7291 after rewardsH8021: they judgeH8199 not the fatherlessH3490, neither doth the causeH7379 of the widowH490 comeH935 unto them.
What mean ye that ye beatH1792 my peopleH5971 to piecesH1792, and grindH2912 the facesH6440 of the poorH6041? saithH5002 the LordH136 GODH3069 of hostsH6635.
He that walkethH1980 righteouslyH6666, and speakethH1696 uprightlyH4339; he that despisethH3988 the gainH1215 of oppressionsH4642, that shakethH5287 his handsH3709 from holdingH8551 of bribesH7810, that stoppethH331 his earsH241 from hearingH8085 of bloodH1818, and shuttethH6105 his eyesH5869 from seeingH7200 evilH7451; {righteously: Heb. in righteousnesses} {uprightly: Heb. uprightnesses} {oppressions: or, deceits} {blood: Heb. bloods}
They are waxen fatH8080, they shineH6245: yea, they overpassH5674 the deedsH1697 of the wickedH7451: they judgeH1777 not the causeH1779, the cause of the fatherlessH3490, yet they prosperH6743; and the rightH4941 of the needyH34 do they not judgeH8199.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; ExecuteH6213 ye judgmentH4941 and righteousnessH6666, and deliverH5337 the spoiledH1497 out of the handH3027 of the oppressorH6216: and do no wrongH3238, do no violenceH2554 to the strangerH1616, the fatherlessH3490, nor the widowH490, neither shedH8210 innocentH5355 bloodH1818 in this placeH4725.
In thee have they set lightH7043 by fatherH1 and motherH517: in the midstH8432 of thee have they dealtH6213 by oppressionH6233 with the strangerH1616: in thee have they vexedH3238 the fatherlessH3490 and the widowH490. {oppression: or, deceit}
The peopleH5971 of the landH776 have used oppressionH6231+H6233, and exercisedH1497 robberyH1498, and have vexedH3238 the poorH6041 and needyH34: yea, they have oppressedH6231 the strangerH1616 wrongfullyH4941. {oppression: or, deceit} {wrongfully: Heb. without right}
Ye who turnH2015 judgmentH4941 to wormwoodH3939, and leave offH3240 righteousnessH6666 in the earthH776,
Seek him that makethH6213 the seven starsH3598 and OrionH3685, and turnethH2015 the shadow of deathH6757 into the morningH1242, and maketh the dayH3117 darkH2821 with nightH3915: that callethH7121 for the watersH4325 of the seaH3220, and poureth them outH8210 upon the faceH6440 of the earthH776: The LORDH3068 is his nameH8034:
That strengthenethH1082 the spoiledH7701 against the strongH5794, so that the spoiledH7701 shall comeH935 against the fortressH4013. {spoiled: Heb. spoil}
They hateH8130 him that rebukethH3198 in the gateH8179, and they abhorH8581 him that speakethH1696 uprightlyH8549.
ForasmuchH3282 therefore as your treadingH1318 is upon the poorH1800, and ye takeH3947 from him burdensH4864 of wheatH1250: ye have builtH1129 housesH1004 of hewn stoneH1496, but ye shall not dwellH3427 in them; ye have plantedH5193 pleasantH2531 vineyardsH3754, but ye shall not drinkH8354 wineH3196 of them. {pleasant…: Heb. vineyards of desire}
For I knowH3045 your manifoldH7227 transgressionsH6588 and your mightyH6099 sinsH2403: they afflictH6887 the justH6662, they takeH3947 a bribeH3724, and they turn asideH5186 the poorH34 in the gateH8179 from their right. {a bribe: or, a ransom}
WoeH1945 to them that deviseH2803 iniquityH205, and workH6466 evilH7451 upon their bedsH4904! when the morningH1242 is lightH216, they practiseH6213 it, because it isH3426 in the powerH410 of their handH3027.
And they covetH2530 fieldsH7704, and take them by violenceH1497; and housesH1004, and take them awayH5375: so they oppressH6231 a manH1397 and his houseH1004, even a manH376 and his heritageH5159. {oppress: or, defraud}
That they may do evilH7451 with both handsH3709 earnestlyH3190, the princeH8269 askethH7592, and the judgeH8199 asketh for a rewardH7966; and the greatH1419 man, he utterethH1696 his mischievousH1942 desireH5315: so they wrap it upH5686. {his…: Heb. the mischief of his soul}
And oppressH6231 not the widowH490, nor the fatherlessH3490, the strangerH1616, nor the poorH6041; and let none of you imagineH2803 evilH7451 againstH376 his brotherH251 in your heartH3824.
And I will come nearH7126 to you to judgmentH4941; and I will be a swiftH4116 witnessH5707 against the sorcerersH3784, and against the adulterersH5003, and against falseH8267 swearersH7650, and against those that oppressH6231 the hirelingH7916 in his wagesH7939, the widowH490, and the fatherlessH3490, and that turn asideH5186 the strangerH1616 from his right, and fearH3372 not me, saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635. {oppress: or, defraud}
AndG1161 the soldiersG4754 likewiseG2532 demandedG1905 of himG846, sayingG3004, AndG2532 whatG5101 shall weG2249 doG4160? AndG2532 he saidG2036 untoG4314 themG846, Do violenceG1286 to no manG3367, neitherG3366 accuse any falselyG4811; andG2532 be contentG714 with yourG5216 wagesG3800. {Do violence…: or, Put no man in fear} {wages: or, allowance}
