Exodus 23




updv@Exodus:23:1 @ You will not take up a false report: don't put your hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness.

updv@Exodus:23:2 @ You will not follow a multitude to do evil; neither will you speak in a cause to turn aside after a multitude to pervert [justice]:

updv@Exodus:23:3 @ neither will you favor a poor man in his cause.

updv@Exodus:23:4 @ If you meet your enemy's ox or his donkey going astray, you will surely bring it back to him again.

updv@Exodus:23:5 @ If you see the donkey of him who hates you lying under his burden, you will forbear to leave him, you will strengthen [it] with him.

updv@Exodus:23:6 @ You will not pervert the justice [due] to your poor in his cause.

updv@Exodus:23:7 @ Keep far from a false matter; and don't slay the innocent and righteous: for I will not justify the wicked.

updv@Exodus:23:8 @ And you will take no bribe: for a bribe blinds those who have sight, and perverts the words of the righteous.

updv@Exodus:23:9 @ And a sojourner you will not oppress: for you(note:){+}(:note) know the heart of a sojourner, seeing you{+} were sojourners in the land of Egypt.

updv@Exodus:23:10 @ And six years you will sow your land, and will gather in its increase:

updv@Exodus:23:11 @ but the seventh year you will let it rest and lie fallow; that the poor of your people may eat: and what they leave the beast of the field will eat. In like manner you will deal with your vineyard, [and] with your oliveyard.

updv@Exodus:23:12 @ Six days you will do your work, and on the seventh day you will rest; that your ox and your donkey may have rest, and the son of your female slave, and the sojourner, may be refreshed.

updv@Exodus:23:13 @ And in all things that I have said to you(note:){+}(:note) you{+} take heed: and make no mention of the name of other gods, neither let it be heard out of your mouth.

updv@Exodus:23:14 @ Three times you will keep a feast to me in the year.

updv@Exodus:23:15 @ The feast of unleavened bread you will keep: seven days you will eat unleavened bread, as I commanded you, at the time appointed in the month Abib (for in it you came out from Egypt); and no one will appear before me empty:

updv@Exodus:23:16 @ and the feast of harvest, the first fruits of your labors, which you sow in the field: and the feast of ingathering, at the end of the year, when you gather in your labors out of the field.

updv@Exodus:23:17 @ Three times in the year all your males will appear before the Sovereign Yahweh.

updv@Exodus:23:18 @ You will not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither will the fat of my feast remain all night until the morning.

updv@Exodus:23:19 @ The first of the first fruits of your ground you will bring into the house of Yahweh your God. You will not boil a young goat in it mother's milk.

updv@Exodus:23:20 @ Look, I send an angel before you, to keep you by the way, and to bring you into the place which I have prepared.

updv@Exodus:23:21 @ You(note:){+}(:note) take heed before him, and listen to his voice; don't provoke him; for he will not pardon your{+} transgression: for my name is in him.

updv@Exodus:23:22 @ But if you will indeed listen to his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy to your enemies, and an adversary to your adversaries.

updv@Exodus:23:23 @ For my angel will go before you, and bring you in to the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Canaanite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite: and I will cut them off.

updv@Exodus:23:24 @ You will not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their works; but you will completely overthrow them, and break in pieces their pillars.

updv@Exodus:23:25 @ And you(note:){+}(:note) will serve Yahweh your{+} God, and he will bless your bread, and your water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of you.

updv@Exodus:23:26 @ There will be none that cast her young, nor that will be barren, in your land: the number of your days I will fulfill.

updv@Exodus:23:27 @ I will send my terror before you, and will discomfit all the people to whom you will come, and I will make all your enemies turn their backs to you.

updv@Exodus:23:28 @ And I will send the hornet before you, which will drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before you.

updv@Exodus:23:29 @ I will not drive them out from before you in one year, or else the land will become desolate, and the beasts of the field will multiply against you.

updv@Exodus:23:30 @ By little and little I will drive them out from before you, until you are increased, and inherit the land.

updv@Exodus:23:31 @ And I will set your border from the Red Sea even to the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness to the River: for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your(note:){+}(:note) hand: and you will drive them out before you.

updv@Exodus:23:32 @ You will make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.

updv@Exodus:23:33 @ They will not dwell in your land, or else they will make you sin against me; for if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you.
