Do not accept a false report. Do not join hands with a wicked man to be a corrupt [false] witness [for him].

Do not follow the majority to do evil. Do not respond with your opinion in a dispute [merely] to lean [toward one side] [(Do not) refrain from teaching what is proper in your eyes regarding a judgment]. It must be decided by the majority.

Do not show favor [even] to the poor in his dispute [judgment].

If you come across your enemy’s ox or his donkey going astray, bring it back to him.

If you see the donkey of your enemy lying under its burden, and you might not want to help him [stop yourself from abandoning him], [but you should] [[you should]] make every effort to help him [abandon what is in you heart against him and unload with him] .

Do not bend justice [even] for your needy in his dispute.

Keep far away from anything false. Do not kill an [one who is] innocent [or one who goes out innocent from judgment] righteous man, for I will not acquit a wicked person.

Do not accept bribery, for bribery blinds the clear-sighted [eyes of the wise], and perverts the words of justice.

Do not oppress a stranger. You [should] know the soul [feelings] of the stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.

You may sow your land for six years, and gather its crops.

But on the seventh [year] you must let it rest, and abandon it [by not eating its produce], and let the needy among your people eat it. What they leave over, the beasts of the field can eat. Do the same with your vineyard and your olive [trees].

You may do your work six days, but on the seventh day you must cease; so that your ox and your donkey may rest, and the son of your female slave may be refreshed, and [also] the stranger.

Preserve everything that I have said to you. Do not mention the name of other [false] gods [of the peoples]. You must not cause it to be heard through your mouth.

Three times a year you are to celebrate with [before] Me.

You must keep the festival of Matzos. You must eat matzos for seven days, as I have commanded you. [This festival must be celebrated] at the appointed time, during the month when the grain is ripened, for in it [at this time] you went out of Egypt. Do not appear before My Presence [Me] empty-handed.

[You must also keep] the Festival of Harvest, [with bringing bikurim] the first fruits of your labor, which you planted in the field; [also] the Festival of Ingathering, at the close of the year, when you gather in [the fruits of] your labor from the field.

Three times a year, every male among you must appear before the Presence of the Master [of the world], Adonoy.

You must not sacrifice—while chometz is present—My [Pesach] sacrifice. You must not allow to remain overnight [off the Altar]—the fat[s] of My [the] festival-offering—until morning.

The beginning of the first fruits of your land must be brought to the House of [the Sanctuary of] Adonoy, your God. You must not cook a young animal in the milk of its mother [eat meat with milk].

Behold, I will send an angel before you, to guard you on the way, and to bring you to the place that I have prepared.

Be careful in his presence and heed [obey] his voice [word]. Do not rebel against him; for he cannot bear [pardon] your transgression, as [in] My Name is in him [his word].

But if you truly listen to [obey] his voice [word], and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies, and attack those who attack you.

My messenger will go before you, and will bring you into [the land of] the Emorites, the Chittites, the Perizzites, the Canaanites, Chivites, and the Yevusites, and I will then annihilate them.

You must not prostrate yourself to their [false] gods, nor serve [sacrifice to] them. You must not adopt their customs. You must totally destroy [their idols] and completely break down their monuments.

You must serve [before] Adonoy, your God, and He will bless your bread [food] and your water [drink]. I will eliminate [bad] sickness from your midst.

No woman will suffer miscarriage or remain childless in your land. I will cause the number of your days to be full.

I will send My dread ahead of you, and I will bring panic to all the people among whom you will come [to fight against]. I will make all your enemies turn their backs to [before] you.

I will send [deadly] hornets ahead of you, and they will drive out the Chivites, the Canaanites, and the Chittites from before you.

I will not drive them out in a single year, lest the land become desolate, and the beasts of the field multiply against you.

Little by little I will drive them from before you, until you have increased and occupy the land.

I will set your borders from the Reed Sea to the Philistine Sea, and from the desert to the [Euphrates] river, for I will deliver into your hands all the inhabitants of the land, and you will drive them away before you.

Do not make a pact with them or with their [false] gods.

Do not allow them to live in your land, since they may cause you to sin to [before] Me; that you [might] worship their [false] gods, and this would be a [fatal] trap to you.
