Deuteronomy 25:10-19

10 - his name in Israel will be Family-No-Sandal."

11 When two men are in a fight and the wife of the one man, trying to rescue her husband, grabs the genitals of the man hitting him,

12 you are to cut off her hand. Show no pity.

13 Don't carry around with you two weights, one heavy and the other light,

14 and don't keep two measures at hand, one large and the other small.

15 Use only one weight, a true and honest weight, and one measure, a true and honest measure, so that you will live a long time on the land that God, your God, is giving you.

16 Dishonest weights and measures are an abomination to God, your God - all this corruption in business deals!

17 Don't forget what Amalek did to you on the road after you left Egypt,

18 how he attacked you when you were tired, barely able to put one foot in front of another, mercilessly cut off your stragglers, and had no regard for God.

19 When God, your God, gives you rest from all the enemies that surround you in the inheritance-land God, your God, is giving you to possess, you are to wipe the name of Amalek from off the Earth. Don't forget!
