Deuteronomy:25:1-4
Seeker Overlay ON
*
If there be a controversy between men ,
and they come unto judgment ,
that the judges may judge them ;
then they shall justify the righteous ,
and condemn the wicked .
*
And it shall be ,
if the wicked man be worthy to be beaten ,
that the judge shall cause him to lie down ,
and to be beaten before his face ,
according to his fault ,
by a certain number .
*
Forty stripes he may give him ,
and not exceed :
lest ,
if he should exceed ,
and beat him above these with many stripes ,
then thy brother should seem vile unto thee .
*
Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the corn .
