Deuteronomy 25:16

16 He hates anyone who cheats.

Deuteronomy 25:16 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 25:16

For all that do such things
Keep, different weights and measures, and make use of them to defraud their neighbours in buying and selling:

[and] all that do unrighteously;
what is not just and right between man and man, in any other instance whatever:

[are] an abomination unto the Lord thy God;
both they and their actions; he is a righteous God, and loves righteousness, and hates injustice of every kind.

Deuteronomy 25:16 In-Context

14 And don't have two different sets of measures. You must not have one set that measures things larger than they really are and another that measures them smaller than they are.
15 You must use weights and measures that are honest and exact. Then you will live a long time in the land the LORD your God is giving you.
16 He hates anyone who cheats.
17 Remember what the Amalekites did to you on your way out of Egypt.
18 You were tired and worn out. They met you on your journey. They attacked everyone who was lagging behind. They didn't have any respect for God.
