Sundry Laws

1 "¹You shall not bear a false report ; do not join your hand with a wicked man to be a ²malicious witness. 2 "You shall not follow ^athe masses in doing evil, nor shall you ^btestify in a dispute so as to turn aside after ^ca multitude in order to ³pervert justice; 3 ⁴nor shall you ^dbe partial to a poor man in his dispute. 4 "⁵If you meet your enemy's ox or his donkey wandering away, you shall surely return it to him. 5 "⁶If you see the donkey of one who hates you lying helpless under its load, you shall refrain from leaving it to him, you shall surely release it with him. 6 "⁷You shall not pervert the justice due to your needy brother in his dispute. 7 "⁸Keep far from a false charge, and ⁹do not kill the innocent or the righteous, for ¹⁰I will not acquit the guilty. 8 "¹¹You shall not take a bribe, for a bribe blinds the clear-sighted and ^esubverts the cause of the just. 9 "¹²You shall not oppress a ^fstranger, since you yourselves know the ^gfeelings of a ^hstranger, for you also were ⁱstrangers in the land of Egypt.
