1 |
When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that
she find no favor in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her:
1then let him write her a bill of
divorcement, and give it in her hand, and 2send 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. |
