פרק כא
(י) כִּי תֵצֵא לַמִּלְחָמָה עַל אֹיְבֶיךָ וּנְתָנוֹ י״י אֱלֹהֶיךָ בְּיָדֶךָ וְשָׁבִיתָ שִׁבְיוֹ. (יא) וְרָאִיתָ בַּשִּׁבְיָה אֵשֶׁת יְפַת תֹּאַר וְחָשַׁקְתָּ בָהּ וְלָקַחְתָּ לְךָ לְאִשָּׁה. (יב) וַהֲבֵאתָהּ אֶל תּוֹךְ בֵּיתֶךָ וְגִלְּחָה אֶת רֹאשָׁהּ וְעָשְׂתָה אֶת צִפׇּרְנֶיהָ. (יג) וְהֵסִירָה אֶת שִׂמְלַת שִׁבְיָהּ מֵעָלֶיהָ וְיָשְׁבָה בְּבֵיתֶךָ וּבָכְתָה אֶת אָבִיהָ וְאֶת אִמָּהּ יֶרַח יָמִים וְאַחַר כֵּן תָּבוֹא אֵלֶיהָ וּבְעַלְתָּהּ וְהָיְתָה לְךָ לְאִשָּׁה. (יד) וְהָיָה אִם לֹא חָפַצְתָּ בָּהּ וְשִׁלַּחְתָּהּ לְנַפְשָׁהּ וּמָכֹר לֹא תִמְכְּרֶנָּה בַּכָּסֶף לֹא תִתְעַמֵּר בָּהּ תַּחַת אֲשֶׁר עִנִּיתָהּ. (טו) כִּי תִהְיֶיןָ לְאִישׁ שְׁתֵּי נָשִׁים הָאַחַת אֲהוּבָה וְהָאַחַת שְׂנוּאָה וְיָלְדוּ לוֹ בָנִים הָאֲהוּבָה וְהַשְּׂנוּאָה וְהָיָה הַבֵּן הַבְּכֹר לַשְּׂנִיאָה. (טז) וְהָיָה בְּיוֹם הַנְחִילוֹ אֶת בָּנָיו אֵת אֲשֶׁר יִהְיֶה לוֹ לֹא יוּכַל לְבַכֵּר אֶת בֶּן הָאֲהוּבָה עַל פְּנֵי בֶן הַשְּׂנוּאָה הַבְּכֹר. (יז) כִּי אֶת הַבְּכֹר בֶּן הַשְּׂנוּאָה יַכִּיר לָתֶת לוֹ פִּי שְׁנַיִם בְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר יִמָּצֵא לוֹ כִּי הוּא רֵאשִׁית אֹנוֹ לוֹ מִשְׁפַּט הַבְּכֹרָה. (יח) כִּי יִהְיֶה לְאִישׁ בֵּן סוֹרֵר וּמוֹרֶה אֵינֶנּוּ שֹׁמֵעַ בְּקוֹל אָבִיו וּבְקוֹל אִמּוֹ וְיִסְּרוּ אֹתוֹ וְלֹא יִשְׁמַע אֲלֵיהֶם. (יט) וְתָפְשׂוּ בוֹ אָבִיו וְאִמּוֹ וְהוֹצִיאוּ אֹתוֹ אֶל זִקְנֵי עִירוֹ וְאֶל שַׁעַר מְקֹמוֹ. (כ) וְאָמְרוּ אֶל זִקְנֵי עִירוֹ בְּנֵנוּ זֶה סוֹרֵר וּמֹרֶה אֵינֶנּוּ שֹׁמֵעַ בְּקֹלֵנוּ זוֹלֵל וְסֹבֵא. (כא) וּרְגָמֻהוּ כׇּל אַנְשֵׁי עִירוֹ בָאֲבָנִים וָמֵת וּבִעַרְתָּ הָרָע מִקִּרְבֶּךָ וְכׇל יִשְׂרָאֵל יִשְׁמְעוּ וְיִרָאוּ. (כב) וְכִי יִהְיֶה בְאִישׁ חֵטְא מִשְׁפַּט מָוֶת וְהוּמָת וְתָלִיתָ אֹתוֹ עַל עֵץ. (כג) לֹא תָלִין נִבְלָתוֹ עַל הָעֵץ כִּי קָבוֹר תִּקְבְּרֶנּוּ בַּיּוֹם הַהוּא כִּי קִלְלַת אֱלֹהִים תָּלוּי וְלֹא תְטַמֵּא אֶת אַדְמָתְךָ אֲשֶׁר י״י אֱלֹהֶיךָ נֹתֵן לְךָ נַחֲלָה.
פרק כב
(א) לֹא תִרְאֶה אֶת שׁוֹר אָחִיךָ אוֹ אֶת שֵׂיוֹ נִדָּחִים וְהִתְעַלַּמְתָּ מֵהֶם הָשֵׁב תְּשִׁיבֵם לְאָחִיךָ.
(ב) וְאִם לֹא קָרוֹב אָחִיךָ אֵלֶיךָ וְלֹא יְדַעְתּוֹ וַאֲסַפְתּוֹ אֶל תּוֹךְ בֵּיתֶךָ וְהָיָה עִמְּךָ עַד דְּרֹשׁ אָחִיךָ אֹתוֹ וַהֲשֵׁבֹתוֹ לוֹ.
(ג) וְכֵן תַּעֲשֶׂה לַחֲמֹרוֹ וְכֵן תַּעֲשֶׂה לְשִׂמְלָתוֹ וְכֵן תַּעֲשֶׂה לְכׇל אֲבֵדַת אָחִיךָ אֲשֶׁר תֹּאבַד מִמֶּנּוּ וּמְצָאתָהּ לֹא תוּכַל לְהִתְעַלֵּם.
(ד) לֹא תִרְאֶה אֶת חֲמוֹר אָחִיךָ אוֹ שׁוֹרוֹ נֹפְלִים בַּדֶּרֶךְ וְהִתְעַלַּמְתָּ מֵהֶם הָקֵם תָּקִים עִמּוֹ.
(ה) לֹא יִהְיֶה כְלִי גֶבֶר עַל אִשָּׁה וְלֹא יִלְבַּשׁ גֶּבֶר שִׂמְלַת אִשָּׁה כִּי תוֹעֲבַת י״י אֱלֹהֶיךָ כׇּל עֹשֵׂה אֵלֶּה.

פרק כד
(א) כִּי יִקַּח אִישׁ אִשָּׁה וּבְעָלָהּ וְהָיָה אִם לֹא תִמְצָא חֵן בְּעֵינָיו כִּי מָצָא בָהּ עֶרְוַת דָּבָר וְכָתַב לָהּ סֵפֶר כְּרִיתֻת וְנָתַן בְּיָדָהּ וְשִׁלְּחָהּ מִבֵּיתוֹ. (ב) וְיָצְאָה מִבֵּיתוֹ וְהָלְכָה וְהָיְתָה לְאִישׁ אַחֵר. (ג) וּשְׂנֵאָהּ הָאִישׁ הָאַחֲרוֹן וְכָתַב לָהּ סֵפֶר כְּרִיתֻת וְנָתַן בְּיָדָהּ וְשִׁלְּחָהּ מִבֵּיתוֹ אוֹ כִי יָמוּת הָאִישׁ הָאַחֲרוֹן אֲשֶׁר לְקָחָהּ לוֹ לְאִשָּׁה. (ד) לֹא יוּכַל בַּעְלָהּ הָרִאשׁוֹן אֲשֶׁר שִׁלְּחָהּ לָשׁוּב לְקַחְתָּהּ לִהְיוֹת לוֹ לְאִשָּׁה אַחֲרֵי אֲשֶׁר הֻטַּמָּאָה כִּי תוֹעֵבָה הִוא לִפְנֵי י״י וְלֹא תַחֲטִיא אֶת הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר י״י אֱלֹהֶיךָ נֹתֵן לְךָ נַחֲלָה. (ה) כִּי יִקַּח אִישׁ אִשָּׁה חֲדָשָׁה לֹא יֵצֵא בַּצָּבָא וְלֹא יַעֲבֹר עָלָיו לְכׇל דָּבָר נָקִי יִהְיֶה לְבֵיתוֹ שָׁנָה אֶחָת וְשִׂמַּח אֶת אִשְׁתּוֹ אֲשֶׁר לָקָח. (ו) לֹא יַחֲבֹל רֵחַיִם וָרָכֶב כִּי נֶפֶשׁ הוּא חֹבֵל. (ז) כִּי יִמָּצֵא אִישׁ גֹּנֵב נֶפֶשׁ מֵאֶחָיו מִבְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְהִתְעַמֶּר בּוֹ וּמְכָרוֹ וּמֵת הַגַּנָּב הַהוּא וּבִעַרְתָּ הָרָע מִקִּרְבֶּךָ. (ח) הִשָּׁמֶר בְּנֶגַע הַצָּרַעַת לִשְׁמֹר מְאֹד וְלַעֲשׂוֹת כְּכֹל אֲשֶׁר יוֹרוּ אֶתְכֶם הַכֹּהֲנִים הַלְוִיִּם כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוִּיתִם תִּשְׁמְרוּ לַעֲשׂוֹת. (ט) זָכוֹר אֵת אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה י״י אֱלֹהֶיךָ לְמִרְיָם בַּדֶּרֶךְ בְּצֵאתְכֶם מִמִּצְרָיִם. (י) כִּי תַשֶּׁה בְרֵעֲךָ מַשַּׁאת מְאוּמָה לֹא תָבֹא אֶל בֵּיתוֹ לַעֲבֹט עֲבֹטוֹ. (יא) בַּחוּץ תַּעֲמֹד וְהָאִישׁ אֲשֶׁר אַתָּה נֹשֶׁה בוֹ יוֹצִיא אֵלֶיךָ אֶת הַעֲבוֹט הַחוּצָה. (יב) וְאִם אִישׁ עָנִי הוּא לֹא תִשְׁכַּב בַּעֲבֹטוֹ. (יג) הָשֵׁב תָּשִׁיב לוֹ אֶת הַעֲבוֹט כְּבוֹא הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ וְשָׁכַב בְּשַׂלְמָתוֹ וּבֵרְכֶךָּ וּלְךָ תִּהְיֶה צְדָקָה לִפְנֵי י״י אֱלֹהֶיךָ. (יד) לֹא תַעֲשֹׁק שָׂכִיר עָנִי וְאֶבְיוֹן מֵאַחֶיךָ אוֹ מִגֵּרְךָ אֲשֶׁר בְּאַרְצְךָ בִּשְׁעָרֶיךָ. (טו) בְּיוֹמוֹ תִתֵּן שְׂכָרוֹ וְלֹא תָבוֹא עָלָיו הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ כִּי עָנִי הוּא וְאֵלָיו הוּא נֹשֵׂא אֶת נַפְשׁוֹ וְלֹא יִקְרָא עָלֶיךָ אֶל י״י וְהָיָה בְךָ חֵטְא. (טז) לֹא יוּמְתוּ אָבוֹת עַל בָּנִים וּבָנִים לֹא יוּמְתוּ עַל אָבוֹת אִישׁ בְּחֶטְאוֹ יוּמָתוּ. (יז) לֹא תַטֶּה מִשְׁפַּט גֵּר יָתוֹם וְלֹא תַחֲבֹל בֶּגֶד אַלְמָנָה. (יח) וְזָכַרְתָּ כִּי עֶבֶד הָיִיתָ בְּמִצְרַיִם וַיִּפְדְּךָ י״י אֱלֹהֶיךָ מִשָּׁם עַל כֵּן אָנֹכִי מְצַוְּךָ לַעֲשׂוֹת אֶת הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה. (יט) כִּי תִקְצֹר קְצִירְךָ בְשָׂדֶךָ וְשָׁכַחְתָּ עֹמֶר בַּשָּׂדֶה לֹא תָשׁוּב לְקַחְתּוֹ לַגֵּר לַיָּתוֹם וְלָאַלְמָנָה יִהְיֶה לְמַעַן יְבָרֶכְךָ י״י אֱלֹהֶיךָ בְּכֹל מַעֲשֵׂה יָדֶיךָ. (כ) כִּי תַחְבֹּט זֵיתְךָ לֹא תְפַאֵר אַחֲרֶיךָ לַגֵּר לַיָּתוֹם וְלָאַלְמָנָה יִהְיֶה. (כא) כִּי תִבְצֹר כַּרְמְךָ לֹא תְעוֹלֵל אַחֲרֶיךָ לַגֵּר לַיָּתוֹם וְלָאַלְמָנָה יִהְיֶה. (כב) וְזָכַרְתָּ כִּי עֶבֶד הָיִיתָ בְּאֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם עַל כֵּן אָנֹכִי מְצַוְּךָ לַעֲשׂוֹת אֶת הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה.
פרק כה
(א) כִּי יִהְיֶה רִיב בֵּין אֲנָשִׁים וְנִגְּשׁוּ אֶל הַמִּשְׁפָּט וּשְׁפָטוּם וְהִצְדִּיקוּ אֶת הַצַּדִּיק וְהִרְשִׁיעוּ אֶת הָרָשָׁע.

Chapter 21
(10) When you go forth to battle against your enemies, and Hashem your God delivers them into your hands, and you carry them away captive, (11) and see among the captives a beautiful woman, and you have a desire to her, and would take her to you as wife; (12) then you shall bring her home to your house; and she shall shave her head, and trim her nails; (13) and she shall take off the clothing of her captivity from upon her, and shall remain in your house, and cry over her father and her mother a full month. After that you shall go in to her, and be her husband, and she shall be your wife. (14) It shall be, if you do not delight in her, then you shall let her go where she will; but you shall not sell her at all for money, you shall not deal with her as a slave, because you have violated her. (15) If a man has two wives, the one beloved, and the other hated, and they have borne him children, both the beloved and the hated; and if the firstborn son is hers who was hated; (16) then it shall be, on the day that he bequeaths to his sons that which he has, that he may not make the son of the beloved the firstborn before the son of the hated, who is the firstborn. (17) Rather, he shall acknowledge the firstborn, the son of the hated, by giving him a double portion of all that he has, for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the firstborn is his. (18) If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son, who will not obey the voice of his father or the voice of his mother, and, though they chasten him, will not listen to them, (19) then his father and his mother shall lay hold of him, and bring him out to the elders of his city, and to the gate of his place, (20) and they shall tell the elders of his city, "This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton, and a drunkard." (21) All the men of his city shall stone him to death with stones. So you shall put away the evil from your midst; and all Israel shall hear and fear. (22) If a man has committed a sin worthy of death, and he is put to death, and you hang him on a tree; (23) his body shall not remain all night on the tree, but you shall surely bury him the same day, for he who is hanged is accursed of God; that you don't defile your land which Hashem your God gives you for an inheritance.
Chapter 22
(1) You shall not see your brother's ox or his sheep go astray and ignore them; but you shall surely bring them again to your brother. (2) If your brother isn't near to you, or if you don't know him, then you shall bring it home to your house, and it shall be with you until your brother seeks after it, and you shall restore it to him. (3) So you shall do with his donkey; and so you shall do with his garment, and so you shall do with every lost thing of your brother's which he has lost and you have found; you may not ignore it. (4) You shall not see your brother's donkey or his ox fallen down by the way, and ignore them; you shall surely help him to lift them up again. (5) A woman shall not wear men's clothing, and a man shall not put on women's clothing; for whoever does these things is an abomination to Hashem your God. (6) If a bird's nest chances to be before you on the way, on any tree or on the ground, with young ones or eggs, and the mother is sitting on the young or on the eggs, you shall not take the mother with the young. (7) You shall surely let the mother go, but the young you may take to yourself, that it may be well with you, and that you may prolong your days. (8) When you build a new house, then you shall make a parapet for your roof, that you don't bring blood on your house, if any man fall from there. (9) You shall not sow your vineyard with two kinds of seed, lest the whole fruit be forfeited, the seed which you have sown, and the produce of the vineyard. (10) You shall not plow with an ox and a donkey together. (11) You shall not wear a mixed garment, wool and linen together. (12) You shall make yourselves fringes on the four borders of your cloak, with which you cover yourself. (13) If any man takes a wife, and goes to her, and hates her, (14) and accuses her of shameful things, and brings up an evil name on her, and says, "I took this woman, and when I came near to her, I didn't find in her the tokens of virginity", (15) then the father of the young lady and her mother shall take and bring forth the tokens of the young lady's virginity to the elders of the city in the gate. (16) And the young lady's father shall tell the elders, "I gave my daughter to this man to wife, and he hates her, (17) and behold, he has accused her of shameful things, saying, 'I didn't find in your daughter the tokens of virginity,' and yet these are the tokens of my daughter's virginity." They shall spread the cloth before the elders of the city. (18) The elders of that city shall take the man and chastise him. (19) And they shall fine him one hundred shekels of silver, and give them to the father of the young lady, because he has brought up an evil name on a virgin of Israel; and she shall be his wife; he may not put her away all his days. (20) But if this thing be true, that the tokens of virginity were not found in the young lady, (21) then they shall bring out the young lady to the door of her father's house, and the men of her city shall stone her to death with stones, because she has done folly in Israel, to play the prostitute in her father's house. So you shall put away the evil from your midst. (22) If a man is found lying with a woman married to a husband, then both of them shall die, the man who lay with the woman, and the woman. So you shall put away the evil from Israel. (23) If a young lady who is a virgin is pledged to be married to a husband, and a man finds her in the city, and lies with her; (24) then you shall bring them both out to the gate of that city, and you shall stone them to death with stones; the lady, because she didn't cry, being in the city; and the man, because he has violated his neighbor's wife. So you shall put away the evil from your midst. (25) But if the man finds the lady who is pledged to be married in the field, and the man forces her, and lies with her; then only the man who lay with her shall die. (26) But to the lady you shall do nothing; there is in the lady no sin worthy of death. For as when a man rises against his neighbor and kills him, even so is this matter. (27) For he found her in the field, and lady who was pledged to be married cried, but there was none to save her. (28) If a man finds a lady who is a virgin, who is not pledged to be married, and lays hold of her, and lies with her, and they are found, (29) then the man who lay with her shall give to the lady's father fifty shekels of silver, and she shall be his wife, because he has violated her; he may not put her away all his days.
Chapter 23
(1) A man shall not take his father's wife, and shall not uncover his father's skirt. (2) He who is wounded in the testicles or has his male organ cut off, shall not enter into the assembly of Hashem. (3) A bastard shall not enter into the assembly of Hashem; even to the tenth generation none of his shall enter into the assembly of Hashem. (4) An Ammonite or a Moabite shall not enter into the assembly of Hashem; even to the tenth generation none belonging to them shall enter into the assembly of Hashem forever, (5) because they didn't meet you with bread and with water on the way, when you came forth out of Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse you. (6) Nevertheless Hashem your God wouldn't listen to Balaam; but Hashem your God turned the curse into a blessing to you, because Hashem your God loved you. (7) You shall not seek their peace or their prosperity all your days forever. (8) You shall not abhor an Edomite; for he is your brother. You shall not abhor an Egyptian, because you lived as a foreigner in his land. (9) The children of the third generation who are born to them shall enter into the assembly of Hashem. (10) When you go forth in camp against your enemies, then you shall keep yourselves from every evil thing. (11) If there is among you any man who is not clean because of a nocturnal emission, then he shall go outside of the camp. He shall not come within the camp. (12) But it shall be, when evening comes, he shall bathe himself in water; and when the sun is down, he shall come within the camp. (13) You shall have a place also outside of the camp, where you shall go forth, (14) and you shall have a spade among your weapons; and it shall be, when you sit down outside, you shall dig with it, and shall turn back and cover your excrement, (15) for Hashem your God walks in the midst of your camp, to deliver you, and to give up your enemies before you. Therefore your camp shall be holy, that he may not see an unclean thing in you, and turn away from you. (16) You shall not deliver to his master a servant who has escaped from his master to you. (17) He shall dwell with you, in your midst, in the place which he shall choose within one of your gates, where it pleases him best. You shall not oppress him. (18) There shall be no prostitute of the daughters of Israel, and there shall there be no male prostitutes of the sons of Israel. (19) You shall not bring the hire of a prostitute or the wages of a dog into the house of Hashem your God for any vow, for both these are an abomination to Hashem your God. (20) You shall not lend on interest to your brother; interest of money, interest of food, interest of anything that is lent on interest. (21) To a foreigner you may lend on interest; but to your brother you shall not lend on interest, that Hashem your God may bless you in all that you put your hand to, in the land where you go in to possess it. (22) When you shall vow a vow to Hashem your God, you shall not delay to pay it, for Hashem your God will surely require it of you; and it would be sin in you. (23) But if you shall refrain from vowing, it shall be no sin in you. (24) That which has gone out of your lips you shall observe and do as you have vowed to Hashem your God, a freewill offering, which you have promised with your mouth. (25) When you come into your neighbor's vineyard, then you may eat of grapes your fill at your own pleasure; but you shall not put any in your vessel. (26) When you come into your neighbor's standing grain, then you may pluck the ears with your hand; but you shall not move a sickle to your neighbor's standing grain.
Chapter 24
(1) When a man takes a wife and marries her, then it shall be, if she does not find favor in his eyes because he has found some unseemly thing in her, that he shall write her a bill of divorce, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house. (2) When she has departed out of his house, she may go and be another man's wife. (3) If the latter husband hates her, and writes her a bill of divorce, and gives it in her hand, and sends her out of his house, or if the latter husband dies, who took her to be his wife, (4) her former husband, who sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife after she was defiled; for that is an abomination before Hashem. And you shall not bring sin to the land which Hashem your God gives you for an inheritance. (5) When a man takes a new wife, he shall not go out in the army, and he shall not be assigned any matter. He shall be free at home one year, and shall bring happiness to his wife whom he has taken. (6) No man shall take the mill or the upper millstone as a pledge, for he is taking a life as a pledge. (7) If a man is found stealing any of his brothers of the Children of Israel, and he deals with him as a slave or sells him, then that thief shall die. So you shall put away the evil from your midst. (8) Be careful of the plague of leprosy, that you observe diligently and do according to all that the priests the Levites shall teach you; as I commanded them, so you shall observe to do. (9) Remember what Hashem your God did to Miriam by the way as you came forth out of Egypt. (10) When you lend your neighbor any kind of loan, you shall not go into his house to get his pledge. (11) You shall stand outside, and the man to whom you lend shall bring forth the pledge outside to you. (12) If he is a poor man, you shall not sleep with his pledge. (13) You shall surely restore to him the pledge when the sun goes down, that he may sleep in his garment, and bless you; and it shall be righteousness to you before Hashem your God. (14) You shall not oppress a hired servant who is poor and needy, whether he is of your brothers or of your foreigners who are in your land within your gates. (15) On his day you shall give him his wages; the sun shall not set on it, for he is poor, and he sets his heart on it; lest he cry against you to Hashem, and it be sin to you. (16) The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, and the children shall not be put to death for the fathers; every man shall be put to death for his own sin. (17) You shall not deprive the foreigner or the fatherless of justice, and you shall not take a widow's clothing as a pledge. (18) But you shall remember that you were a bondservant in Egypt, and Hashem your God redeemed you there. Therefore I command you to do this thing. (19) When you reap your harvest in your field, and have forgotten a sheaf in the field, you shall not go again to get it. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow, so that Hashem your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. (20) When you beat your olive tree, you shall not go over the boughs again. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow. (21) When you harvest your vineyard, you shall not glean it after yourselves: it shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow. (22) You shall remember that you were a bondservant in the land of Egypt; therefore I command you to do this thing.
Chapter 25
(1) If there is a controversy between men, and they come to judgment, and the judges judge them, then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked. (2) And it shall be, if the wicked man is worthy of being beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his wickedness, by number. (3) Forty strikes he may give him, he shall not exceed; lest, if he should exceed and beat him above these with many strikes, then your brother should be disgraced in your eyes. (4) You shall not muzzle the ox when he treads the grain. (5) If brothers dwell together, and one of them dies and has no son, the wife of the dead shall not be married outside to a stranger. Her husband's brother shall go in to her, and take her to him as a wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother to her. (6) It shall be that the firstborn whom she bears shall be established in the name of his brother who is dead, that his name not be blotted out of Israel. (7) If the man doesn't want to take his brother's wife, then his brother's wife shall go up to the gate to the elders, and say, "My husband's brother refuses to establish for his brother a name in Israel; he is not willing to perform the duty of a husband's brother to me." (8) Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak to him, and if he stands and says, "I don't want to take her"; (9) then his brother's wife shall come to him in the presence of the elders, and take off his shoe from his foot, and spit in his face; and she shall answer and say, "So shall it be done to the man who does not build up his brother's house." (10) His name shall be called in Israel, 'The house of him who has his shoe removed.' (11) When men strive fight one with another, and the wife of the one draws near to deliver her husband out of the hand of him who strikes him, and puts forth her hand, and takes him by the private parts, (12) then you shall cut off her hand. Your eye shall have no pity. (13) You shall not have in your bag diverse weights, a great and a small. (14) You shall not have in your house diverse measures, a great and a small. (15) You shall have a full and just weight. You shall have a full and just measure, that your days may be long in the land which Hashem your God gives you. (16) For all who do such things, all who act corruptly, are an abomination to Hashem your God. (17) Remember what Amalek did to you by the way as you came forth out of Egypt; (18) how he met you by the way, and struck the rear part of you, all who were feeble behind you, when you were faint and weary; and he didn't fear God. (19) Therefore it shall be, when Hashem your God has given you rest from all your enemies all around, in the land which Hashem your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it, that you shall blot out the memory of Amalek from under the sky; you shall not forget.
