WEBVTT 00:00.740 --> 00:05.020 Chapter 23 Thou shalt not raise a false report. 00:05.740 --> 00:08.560 Put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness. 00:09.520 --> 00:11.740 Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil. 00:12.520 --> 00:16.020 Neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment. 00:17.100 --> 00:19.800 Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause. 00:20.640 --> 00:25.320 If thou meet thine enemy's ox, or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely 00:25.320 --> 00:26.580 bring it back to him again. 00:27.400 --> 00:32.400 If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under his burden, and would his 00:32.400 --> 00:35.760 forebear to help him, thou shalt surely help with him. 00:36.720 --> 00:39.640 Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause. 00:40.540 --> 00:44.680 Keep thee far from a false matter, and the innocent and righteous slay thou 00:44.680 --> 00:45.040 not. 00:45.500 --> 00:47.400 For I will not justify the wicked. 00:48.480 --> 00:53.480 And thou shalt take no gift, for the gift blindeth the wise, and perverteth the 00:53.480 --> 00:54.300 words of the righteous. 00:55.740 --> 00:58.020 Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger. 00:58.640 --> 01:02.960 For ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of 01:02.960 --> 01:03.340 Egypt. 01:04.320 --> 01:09.180 And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and shalt gather in the fruits thereof. 01:09.800 --> 01:14.980 But the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and lie still, that the poor of thy 01:14.980 --> 01:19.280 people may eat, and what they leave the beasts of the field shall eat. 01:19.280 --> 01:24.000 In like manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thy olive yard. 01:24.720 --> 01:29.040 Six days thou shalt do thy work, and on the seventh day thou shalt rest, 01:29.620 --> 01:34.900 that thine ox and thine ass may rest, and the son of thy handmaid, and the 01:34.900 --> 01:36.180 stranger may be refreshed. 01:36.820 --> 01:41.340 And in all things that I have said unto you, be circumspect, and make no mention 01:41.340 --> 01:45.120 of the name of other gods, neither let it be heard out of thy mouth. 01:45.900 --> 01:49.020 Three times thou shalt keep a feast unto me in the year. 01:49.700 --> 01:52.080 Thou shalt keep the feast of unleavened bread. 01:52.780 --> 01:57.240 Thou shalt eat unleavened bread seven days as I commanded thee, in the time appointed 01:57.240 --> 02:00.860 of the month Abib, for in it thou camest out from Egypt. 02:01.520 --> 02:03.640 And none shall appear before me empty. 02:04.420 --> 02:08.880 And the feast of harvest, the first fruits of thy labors which thou hast sown in the 02:08.880 --> 02:12.840 field, and the feast of ingathering, which is in the end of the year, 02:12.840 --> 02:16.140 when thou hast gathered in thy labors out of the field. 02:16.980 --> 02:20.800 Three times in the year all thy mail shall appear before the Lord God. 02:21.520 --> 02:24.600 Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread. 02:25.400 --> 02:28.240 Neither shall the fat of my sacrifice remain until the morning. 02:29.120 --> 02:32.800 The first of the first fruits of thy land thou shalt bring into the house of the 02:32.800 --> 02:33.620 Lord thy God. 02:34.320 --> 02:36.980 Thou shalt not see the kid in his mother's milk. 02:37.520 --> 02:42.720 Behold, I send an angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee 02:42.720 --> 02:44.400 into the place which I have prepared. 02:45.400 --> 02:47.640 Beware of him, and obey his voice. 02:48.260 --> 02:51.780 Provoke him not, for he will not pardon your transgressions. 02:52.320 --> 02:53.760 For my name is in him. 02:54.660 --> 03:00.640 But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak, then I will be an 03:00.640 --> 03:04.440 enemy unto thine enemies, and an adversary unto thine adversaries. 03:04.440 --> 03:09.240 For mine angel shall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites, 03:09.460 --> 03:13.880 and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, 03:14.160 --> 03:16.700 and the Jebusites, and I will cut them off. 03:17.400 --> 03:22.420 Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their works. 03:22.900 --> 03:27.620 But thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their images. 03:28.340 --> 03:33.140 And ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread and thy 03:33.140 --> 03:33.480 water. 03:33.480 --> 03:36.900 And I will take sickness away from the midst of thee. 03:37.740 --> 03:41.460 There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren in thy land. 03:42.120 --> 03:44.300 The number of thy days I will fulfill. 03:45.140 --> 03:49.460 I will send my fear before thee, and will destroy all the people to whom 03:49.460 --> 03:50.320 thou shalt come. 03:50.800 --> 03:54.020 And I will make all thine enemies turn their backs unto thee. 03:54.900 --> 03:58.820 And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, 03:59.080 --> 04:01.580 the Canaanite, and the Hittite from before thee. 04:01.580 --> 04:06.500 I will not drive them out from before thee in one year, lest the land become 04:06.500 --> 04:09.800 desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee. 04:10.380 --> 04:15.460 By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou be increased 04:15.460 --> 04:16.660 and inherit the land. 04:17.560 --> 04:22.060 And I will set thy bounds from the Red Sea, even unto the Sea of the Philistines, 04:22.400 --> 04:24.040 and from the desert unto the river. 04:24.440 --> 04:29.380 For I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and thou shalt drive 04:29.380 --> 04:30.380 them out before thee. 04:31.080 --> 04:34.800 Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods. 04:35.280 --> 04:39.380 They shall not dwell in thy land, lest they make thee sin against me. 04:39.900 --> 04:43.860 For if thou serve their gods, it will surely be a snare unto thee.
