DE-25:1 If there be a controversy between men, and they come
unto judgment, that [the judges] may judge them; then they shall
justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked.
DE-25:2 And it shall be, if the wicked man [be] worthy to be
beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be
beaten before his face, according to his fault, by a certain
number.
DE-25:3 Forty stripes he may give him, [and] not exceed: lest,
[if] he should exceed, and beat him above these with many
stripes, then thy brother should seem vile unto thee.
DE-25:4 Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out [the
corn].
DE-25:5 If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and
have no child, the wife of the dead shall not marry without unto
a stranger: her husband's brother shall go in unto her, and take
her to him to wife, and perform the duty of an husband's brother
unto her.
DE-25:6 And it shall be, [that] the firstborn which she beareth
shall succeed in the name of his brother [which is] dead, that
his name be not put out of Israel.
DE-25:7 And if the man like not to take his brother's wife, then
let his brother's wife go up to the gate unto the elders, and
say, My husband's brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother
a name in Israel, he will not perform the duty of my husband's
brother.
DE-25:8 Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak
unto him: and [if] he stand [to it], and say, I like not to take
her;
DE-25:9 Then shall his brother's wife come unto him in the
presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot,
and spit in his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be
done unto that man that will not build up his brother's house.
DE-25:10 And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of
him that hath his shoe loosed.
DE-25:11 When men strive together one with another, and the wife
of the one draweth near for to deliver her husband out of the
hand of him that smiteth him, and putteth forth her hand, and
taketh him by the secrets:
DE-25:12 Then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not
pity [her].
DE-25:13 Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great
and a small.
DE-25:14 Thou shalt not have in thine house divers measures, a
great and a small.
DE-25:15 [But] thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, a
perfect and just measure shalt thou have: that thy days may be
lengthened in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.
DE-25:16 For all that do such things, [and] all that do
unrighteously, [are] an abomination unto the LORD thy God.
DE-25:17 Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way, when ye
were come forth out of Egypt;
DE-25:18 How he met thee by the way, and smote the hindmost of
thee, [even] all [that were] feeble behind thee, when thou
[wast] faint and weary; and he feared not God.
DE-25:19 Therefore it shall be, when the LORD thy God hath given
thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which
the LORD thy God giveth thee [for] an inheritance to possess it,
[that] thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under
heaven; thou shalt not forget [it].
