beast, to keep; and it die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it:
[11] Then shall an oath of the
LORD be between them both, that he hath not put his hand unto his neighbour's goods; and the owner
of it shall accept thereof, and he shall not make it good.
[12] And if it be stolen from him, he shall make
restitution unto the owner thereof.
[13] If it be torn in pieces, then let him bring it for witness, and he shall
not make good that which was torn.
[14] And if a man borrow ought of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or
die, the owner thereof being not with it, he shall surely make it good.
[15] But if the owner thereof be with
it, he shall not make it good: if it be an hired thing, it came for his hire.
[16] And if a man entice a maid
that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.
[17] If her father utterly
refuse to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.
[18] Thou shalt not
suffer a witch to live.
[19] Whosoever lieth with a beast shall surely be put to death.
[20] He that sacrificeth
unto any god, save unto the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.
[21] Thou shalt neither vex a stranger,
nor oppress him: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
[22] Ye shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless
child.
[23] If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;
[24] And
my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children
fatherless.
[25] If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him
as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.
[26] If thou at all take thy neighbour's raiment to
pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth down:
[27] For that is his covering only, it is
his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that
I will hear; for I am gracious.
[28] Thou shalt not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people.
[29]
Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the firstborn of thy sons shalt
thou give unto me.
[30] Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with thy sheep: seven days it shall be
with his dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it me.
[31] And ye shall be holy men unto me: neither shall
ye eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.
Exod.23
[1] Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness.
[2]
Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many
to wrest judgment:
[3] Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause.
[4] If thou meet thine
enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again.
[5] If thou see the ass
of him that hateth thee lying under his burden, and wouldest forbear to help him, thou shalt surely help
with him.
[6] Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause.
[7] Keep thee far from a false
matter; and the innocent and righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify the wicked.
[8] And thou shalt
take no gift: for the gift blindeth the wise, and perverteth the words of the righteous.
[9] Also thou shalt
not oppress a stranger: for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.
[10]
And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and shalt gather in the fruits thereof:
[11] But the seventh year
thou shalt let it rest and lie still; that the poor of thy people may eat: and what they leave the beasts of
the field shall eat. In like manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thy oliveyard.
[12] Six days
thou shalt do thy work, and on the seventh day thou shalt rest: that thine ox and thine ass may rest,
and the son of thy handmaid, and the stranger, may be refreshed.
[13] And in all things that I have said
unto you be circumspect: and make no mention of the name of other gods, neither let it be heard out of
thy mouth.
[14] Three times thou shalt keep a feast unto me in the year.
[15] Thou shalt keep the feast
of unleavened bread: (thou shalt eat unleavened bread seven days, as I commanded thee, in the time
appointed of the month Abib; for in it thou camest out from Egypt: and none shall appear before me empty:)
[16]
And the feast of harvest, the firstfruits of thy labours, which thou hast sown in the field: and the feast of
ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when thou hast gathered in thy labours out of the field.
[17]
Three times in the year all thy males shall appear before the Lord GOD.
[18] Thou shalt not offer the
blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the fat of my sacrifice remain until the morning.
[19]
The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of the LORD thy God. Thou shalt not
seethe a kid in his mother's milk.
[20] Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and
to bring thee into the place which I have prepared.
[21] Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him
not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him.
[22] But if thou shalt indeed obey
his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto
thine adversaries.
[23] For mine Angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites, and the
