Deuteronomy 25:9-19

9 then shall his brother’s wife come unto him in the presence of the elders and loose his shoe from off his foot and spit in his face and shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto that man that will not build up his brother’s house.
10 And his name shall be called in Israel, The house of him that is barefoot.
11 When men strive together one with another and the wife of the one draws near to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smites him and puts forth her hand and takes him by his secret parts;
12 then thou shalt cut off her hand; thine eye shall not pity her.
13 Thou shalt not have in thy bag different weights, a great and a small.
14 Thou shalt not have in thy house different measures, a great and a small.
15 But thou shalt have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure shalt thou have, that thy days may be lengthened in the land which the LORD thy God gives thee.
16 For all that do such things and all that do unrighteously are an abomination unto the LORD thy God.
17 Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way when ye were come forth out of Egypt,
18 how he met thee by the way and smote the hindmost of thee, even all that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary and he did not fear God.
19 Therefore it shall be when the LORD thy God has given thee rest from all thine enemies round about in the land which the LORD thy God gives thee for an inheritance to possess it that thou shalt blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; thou shalt not forget it.
