lesserot - Deuteronomy:25:1-3

lesserot@Deuteronomy:25:1 @ If there be a controversy between men, and they come nigh unto a court of justice, and they judge them; and they justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked:

lesserot@Deuteronomy:25:2 @ Then shall it be, if the guilty man deserve to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to the degree of his fault, by a number.

lesserot@Deuteronomy:25:3 @ Forty stripes may he give him, not more; so that he shall not exceed to have him beaten above these with too many stripes, and thy brother be thus rendered vile before thy eyes.
