*
One witnes shall not rise against a man for any trespasse ,
or for any sinne ,
or for any fault that hee offendeth in ,
but at the mouth of two witnesses or at the mouth of three witnesses shall the matter be stablished .
*
If a false witnesse rise vp against a man to accuse him of trespasse ,
*
Then both the men ,
between whom the controversy [
is ],
shall stand before the (

God '
s presence where his true ministers are assembled .(:

LORD ,
before the priests and the judges ,
which shall be in those days ;
*
And the Iudges shall make diligent inquisition :
and if the witnesse be found false ,
and hath giuen false witnes against his brother ,
*
Then shall yee doe vnto him as hee had thought to doe vnto his brother :
so thou shalt take euil away forth of the middes of thee .
*
And the rest shal heare this ,
and feare ,
and shall henceforth commit no more any such wickednes among you .
*
Therefore thine eye shall have no compassion ,
but life for life ,
eye for eye ,
tooth for tooth ,
hand for hand ,
foote for foote .
