1 | When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to
pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath
found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill
of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of
his house. |
|
2 | And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be
another man's wife. |
|
3 | And if the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of
divorcement, and giveth it in her hand, and sendeth her out of
his house; or if the latter husband die, which took her to be
his wife; |
|
4 | Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her
again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is
abomination before the LORD: and thou shalt not cause the land
to sin, which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance. |
|
5 | When a man hath taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war,
neither shall he be charged with any business: but he shall be
free at home one year, and shall cheer up his wife which he
hath taken. |
|
6 | No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone to pledge:
for he taketh a man's life to pledge. |
|
7 | If a man be found stealing any of his brethren of the children
of Israel, and maketh merchandise of him, or selleth him; then
that thief shall die; and thou shalt put evil away from among
you. |
|
8 | Take heed in the plague of leprosy, that thou observe
diligently, and do according to all that the priests the
Levites shall teach you: as I commanded them, so ye shall
observe to do. |
|
9 | Remember what the LORD thy God did unto Miriam by the way,
after that ye were come forth out of Egypt. |
|
10 | When thou dost lend thy brother any thing, thou shalt not go
into his house to fetch his pledge. |
|
11 | Thou shalt stand abroad, and the man to whom thou dost lend
shall bring out the pledge abroad unto thee. |
|
12 | And if the man be poor, thou shalt not sleep with his pledge: |
|
13 | In any case thou shalt deliver him the pledge again when the
sun goeth down, that he may sleep in his own raiment, and
bless thee: and it shall be righteousness unto thee before the
LORD thy God. |
|
14 | Thou shalt not oppress an hired servant that is poor and
needy, whether he be of thy brethren, or of thy strangers that
are in thy land within thy gates: |
|
15 | At his day thou shalt give him his hire, neither shall the sun
go down upon it; for he is poor, and setteth his heart upon
it: lest he cry against thee unto the LORD, and it be sin unto
thee. |
|
16 | The fathers shall not be put to death for the children,
neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers:
every man shall be put to death for his own sin. |
|
17 | Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of
the fatherless; nor take a widow's raiment to pledge: |
|
18 | But thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt, and
the LORD thy God redeemed thee thence: therefore I command
thee to do this thing. |
|
19 | When thou cuttest down thine harvest in thy field, and hast
forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch
it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for
the widow: that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the
work of thine hands. |
|
20 | When thou beatest thine olive tree, thou shalt not go over the
boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the
fatherless, and for the widow. |
|
21 | When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not
glean it afterward: it shall be for the stranger, for the
fatherless, and for the widow. |
|
22 | And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land
of Egypt: therefore I command thee to do this thing. |
