Thou shalt not sacrifice
unto the LORD
thy God
any bullock,
or sheep,
wherein is blemish,
or any evilfavouredness:
for that is an abomination
unto the LORD
thy God.
If there be found
among
you, within any
of thy gates
which the LORD
thy God
giveth
thee, man
or woman,
that hath wrought
wickedness
in the sight
of the LORD
thy God,
in transgressing
his covenant,
And hath gone
and served
other
gods,
and worshipped
them, either the sun,
or moon,
or any of the host
of heaven,
which I have not commanded;
And it be told
thee, and thou hast heard
of it, and enquired
diligently,
and, behold, it be true,
and the thing
certain,
that such abomination
is wrought
in Israel:
Then shalt thou bring forth
that man
or that woman,
which have committed
that wicked
thing,
unto thy gates,
even that man
or that woman,
and shalt stone
them with stones,
till they die.
At the mouth
of two
witnesses,
or three
witnesses,
shall he that is worthy of death
be put to death;
but at the mouth
of one
witness
he shall not be put to death.
The hands
of the witnesses
shall be first
upon him to put him to death,
and afterward
the hands
of all the people.
So thou shalt put
the evil
away
from among
you.
If there arise a matter
too hard
for thee in judgment,
between blood
and blood,
between plea
and plea,
and between stroke
and stroke,
being matters
of controversy
within thy gates:
then shalt thou arise,
and get thee up
into the place
which the LORD
thy God
shall choose;
And thou shalt come
unto the priests
the Levites,
and unto the judge
that shall be in those days,
and enquire;
and they shall shew
thee the sentence
of judgment:
And thou shalt do
according to the sentence,
which they of that place
which the LORD
shall choose
shall shew
thee; and thou shalt observe
to do
according to all that they inform
thee:
According to the sentence
of the law
which they shall teach
thee, and according to the judgment
which they shall tell
thee, thou shalt do:
thou shalt not decline
from the sentence
which they shall shew
thee, to the right hand,
nor to the left.
And the man
that will do
presumptuously,
and will not hearken
unto the priest
that standeth
to minister
there before the LORD
thy God,
or unto the judge,
even that man
shall die:
and thou shalt put away
the evil
from Israel.
And all the people
shall hear,
and fear,
and do no more presumptuously.
When thou art come
unto the land
which the LORD
thy God
giveth
thee, and shalt possess
it, and shalt dwell
therein, and shalt say,
I will set
a king
over me, like as all the nations
that are about
me;
say
Thou shalt in any wise
set
him king
over thee, whom the LORD
thy God
shall choose:
one from among
thy brethren
shalt thou set
king
over thee: thou mayest
not set
a stranger
over thee, which is not thy brother.
But he shall not multiply
horses
to himself, nor cause the people
to return
to Egypt,
to the end that he should multiply
horses:
forasmuch as the LORD
hath said
unto you, Ye shall henceforth
return
no more that way.
say
Neither shall he multiply
wives
to himself, that his heart
turn
not away: neither shall he greatly
multiply
to himself silver
and gold.
And it shall be, when he sitteth
upon the throne
of his kingdom,
that he shall write
him a copy
of this law
in a book
out of that which is before
the priests
the Levites:
repeated Law
δευτερονόμιον
deuteronomion
And it shall be with him, and he shall read
therein all the days
of his life:
that he may learn
to fear
the LORD
his God,
to keep
all the words
of this law
and these statutes,
to do
them:
That his heart
be not lifted up
above his brethren,
and that he turn not aside
from the commandment,
to the right hand,
or to the left:
to the end that he may prolong
his days
in his kingdom,
he, and his children,
in the midst
of Israel.
