1'Thou dost not lift up a vain report; thou dost not put thy hand with a wicked man to be a violent witness.
2Thou art not after many to evil, nor dost thou testify concerning a strife, to turn aside after many to cause others to turn aside;
3and a poor man thou dost not honour in his strife.
4'When thou meetest thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou dost certainly turn it back to him;
5when thou seest the ass of him who is hating thee crouching under its burden, then thou hast ceased from leaving it to it — thou dost certainly leave it with him.
6'Thou dost not turn aside the judgment of thy needy one in his strife;
7from a false matter thou dost keep far off, and an innocent and righteous man thou dost not slay; for I do not justify a wicked man.
8And a bribe thou dost not take; for the bribe bindeth the open -eyed, and perverteth the words of the righteous.
9And a sojourner thou dost not oppress, and ye — ye have known the soul of the sojourner, for sojourners ye have been in the land of Egypt.
10'And six years thou dost sow thy land, and hast gathered its increase;
11and the seventh thou dost release it, and hast left it, and the needy of thy people have eaten, and their leaving doth the beast of the field eat; so dost thou to thy vineyard — to thine olive-yard.
12'Six days thou dost do thy work, and on the seventh day thou dost rest, so that thine ox and thine ass doth rest, and the son of thine handmaid and the sojourner is refreshed;
13and in all that which I have said unto you ye do take heed; and the name of other gods ye do not mention; it is not heard on thy mouth.
14'Three times thou dost keep a feast to Me in a year;
15the Feast of Unleavened things thou dost keep; seven days thou dost eat unleavened things, as I have commanded thee, at the time appointed in the month of Abib; for in it thou hast come forth out of Egypt, and ye do not appear in My presence empty;
16and the Feast of Harvest, the first fruits of thy works which thou sowest in the field; and the Feast of the In-Gathering, in the outgoing of the year, in thy gathering thy works out of the field.
17'Three times in a year do all thy males appear before the face of the Lord Jehovah.
18'Thou dost not sacrifice on a fermented thing the blood of My sacrifice, and the fat of My festival doth not remain till morning;
19the beginning of the first-fruits of thy ground thou dost bring into the house of Jehovah thy God; thou dost not boil a kid in its mother's milk.
20'Lo, I am sending a messenger before thee to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee in unto the place which I have prepared;
21be watchful because of his presence, and hearken to his voice, rebel not against him, for he beareth not with your transgression, for My name is in his heart;
22for, if thou diligently hearken to his voice, and hast done all that which I speak, then I have been at enmity with thine enemies, and have distressed those distressing thee.
23'For My messenger goeth before thee, and hath brought thee in unto the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Canaanite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, and I have cut them off.
24'Thou dost not bow thyself to their gods, nor serve them, nor do according to their doings, but dost utterly devote them, and thoroughly break their standing pillars.
25'And ye have served Jehovah your God, and He hath blessed thy bread and thy water, and I have turned aside sickness from thine heart;
26there is not a miscarrying and barren one in thy land; the number of thy days I fulfil:
27My terror I send before thee, and I have put to death all the people among whom thou comest, and I have given the neck of all thine enemies unto thee.
28'And I have sent the hornet before thee, and it hath cast out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee;
29I cast them not out from before thee in one year, lest the land be a desolation, and the beast of the field hath multiplied against thee;
30little by little I cast them out from before thee, till thou art fruitful, and hast inherited the land.
31'And I have set thy border from the Red Sea, even unto the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness unto the River: for I give into your hand the inhabitants of the land, and thou hast cast them out from before thee;
32thou dost not make a covenant with them, and with their gods;
33they do not dwell in thy land, lest they cause thee to sin against Me when thou servest their gods, when it becometh a snare to thee.'
