Exodus 23

1 Of slander and false witness. 3, 6 Of justice. 4 Of charitableness. 10 Of the year of rest. 12 Of the Sabbath. 13 Of idolatry. 14 Of the three feasts. 18 Of the blood and the fat of the sacrifice. 20 An angel is promised, with a blessing, if they obey him.

 23:1 ¶ Thou shalt not x3808 raise 5375 z8799 a false 7723 report: 8088 put 7896 z8799 not x408 thine hand 3027 with x5973 the wicked 7563 to be x1961 an unrighteous 2555 witness. 5707

 23:2 ¶ Thou shalt not x3808 follow 310 x1961 a multitude 7227 to [do] evil; 7451 neither x3808 shalt thou speak 6030 z8799 in x5921 a cause 7379 to decline 5186 z8800 after 310 many 7227 to wrest 5186 z8687 [judgment]:

 23:3 ¶ Neither x3808 shalt thou countenance 1921 z8799 a poor y1800 man x1800 in his cause. 7379

 23:4 ¶ If x3588 thou meet 6293 z8799 thine enemy's 341 z8802 ox 7794 or x176 his ass 2543 going astray, 8582 z8802 thou shalt surely y7725 z8687 bring it back y7725 z0 to him again. 7725 z8686

 23:5 If x3588 thou see 7200 z8799 the ass 2543 of him that hateth 8130 z8802 thee lying 7257 z8802 under x8478 his burden, 4853 and wouldest forbear 2308 z8804 to help 5800 z8800 x4480 him, thou shalt surely y5800 z8800 help 5800 z8799 with x5973 him.

 23:6 Thou shalt not x3808 wrest 5186 z8686 the judgment 4941 of thy poor 34 in his cause. 7379

 23:7 Keep thee far 7368 z8799 from a false y8267 matter; 1697 x4480 x8267 and the innocent 5355 and righteous 6662 slay 2026 z8799 thou not: x408 for x3588 I will not x3808 justify 6663 z8686 the wicked. 7563

 23:8 ¶ And thou shalt take 3947 z8799 no x3808 gift: 7810 for x3588 the gift 7810 blindeth 5786 z8762 the wise, 6493 and perverteth 5557 z8762 the words 1697 of the righteous. 6662

 23:9 ¶ Also thou shalt not x3808 oppress 3905 z8799 a stranger: 1616 for ye x859 know 3045 z8804 x853 the heart 5315 of a stranger, 1616 seeing 3588 ye were x1961 strangers 1616 in the land 776 of Egypt. 4714

 23:10 And six 8337 years 8141 thou shalt sow 2232 z8799 x853 thy land, 776 and shalt gather y622 z8804 in x622 x853 the fruits 8393 thereof:

 23:11 But the seventh 7637 [year] thou shalt let it rest 8058 z8799 and lie y5203 z8804 still; x5203 that the poor 34 of thy people 5971 may eat: 398 z8804 and what they leave 3499 the beasts 2416 of the field 7704 shall eat. 398 z8799 In like manner x3651 thou shalt deal 6213 z8799 with thy vineyard, 3754 [and] with thy oliveyard. 2132

 23:12 Six 8337 days 3117 thou shalt do 6213 z8799 thy work, 4639 and on the seventh 7637 day 3117 thou shalt rest: 7673 z8799 that x4616 thine ox 7794 and thine ass 2543 may rest, 5117 z8799 and the son 1121 of thy handmaid, 519 and the stranger, 1616 may be refreshed. 5314 z8735

 23:13 And in all x3605 [things] that x834 I have said 559 z8804 unto x413 you be circumspect: 8104 z8735 and make no mention 2142 z8686 x3808 of the name 8034 of other 312 gods, 430 neither x3808 let it be heard 8085 z8735 out y5921 of x5921 thy mouth. 6310

 23:14 ¶ Three 7969 times 7272 thou shalt keep a feast 2287 z8799 unto me in the year. 8141

 23:15 Thou shalt keep 8104 z8799 x853 the feast 2282 of unleavened bread: 4682 (thou shalt eat 398 z8799 unleavened bread 4682 seven 7651 days, 3117 as x834 I commanded 6680 z8765 thee, in the time appointed 4150 of the month 2320 Abib; 24 for x3588 in it thou camest out 3318 z8804 from Egypt: 4714 x4480 and none x3808 shall appear 7200 z8735 before 6440 me empty:) 7387

 23:16 And the feast 2282 of harvest, 7105 the firstfruits 1061 of thy labours, 4639 which x834 thou hast sown 2232 z8799 in the field: 7704 and the feast 2282 of ingathering, 614 [which is] in the end 3318 z8800 of the year, 8141 when thou hast gathered y622 z8800 in x622 x853 thy labours 4639 out of x4480 the field. 7704

 23:17 Three 7969 times 6471 in the year 8141 all x3605 thy males 2138 shall appear 7200 z8735 before 6440 x413 the Lord 113 GOD. 3068

 23:18 Thou shalt not x3808 offer 2076 z8799 the blood 1818 of my sacrifice 2077 with x5921 leavened bread; 2557 neither x3808 shall the fat 2459 of my sacrifice 2282 remain 3885 z8799 until x5704 the morning. 1242

 23:19 The first 7225 of the firstfruits 1061 of thy land 127 thou shalt bring 935 z8686 into the house 1004 of the LORD 3068 thy God. 430 Thou shalt not x3808 seethe 1310 z8762 a kid 1423 in his mother's 517 milk. 2461

 23:20 ¶ Behold, x2009 I x595 send 7971 z8802 an Angel 4397 before 6440 thee, to keep 8104 z8800 thee in the way, 1870 and to bring 935 z8687 thee into x413 the place 4725 which x834 I have prepared. 3559 z8689

 23:21 Beware 8104 z8734 of 6440 x4480 him, and obey 8085 z8798 his voice, 6963 provoke 4843 z8686 him not; x408 for x3588 he will not x3808 pardon 5375 z8799 your transgressions: 6588 for x3588 my name 8034 [is] in x7130 him. y7130

 23:22 But x3588 if x518 thou shalt indeed y8085 z8800 obey 8085 z8799 his voice, 6963 and do 6213 z8804 all x3605 that x834 I speak; 1696 z8762 then I will be an enemy 340 z8804 x853 unto thine enemies, 341 z8802 and an adversary y6887 z8802 x6696 x853 unto thine adversaries. y6696 z8804 x6887

 23:23 For x3588 mine Angel 4397 shall go y3212 z8799 x1980 before 6440 thee, and bring y935 z8689 thee in x935 unto x413 the Amorites, 567 and the Hittites, 2850 and the Perizzites, 6522 and the Canaanites, 3669 the Hivites, 2340 and the Jebusites: 2983 and I will cut them off. 3582 z8689

 23:24 Thou shalt not x3808 bow down 7812 z8691 to their gods, 430 nor x3808 serve 5647 z8714 them, nor x3808 do 6213 z8799 after their works: 4639 but x3588 thou shalt utterly y2040 z8763 overthrow 2040 z8762 them, and quite y7665 z8763 break down 7665 z8762 their images. 4676

 23:25 And ye shall serve 5647 z8804 x853 the LORD 3068 your God, 430 and he shall bless 1288 z8765 x853 thy bread, 3899 and thy water; 4325 and I will take y5493 z0 sickness y4245 away 5493 z8689 x4245 from the midst 7130 x4480 of thee.

 23:26 ¶ There shall nothing x3808 cast their young, 7921 z8764 x1961 nor be barren, 6135 in thy land: 776 x853 the number 4557 of thy days 3117 I will fulfil. 4390 z8762

 23:27 I will send 7971 z8762 x853 my fear 367 before 6440 thee, and will destroy 2000 z8804 x853 all x3605 the people 5971 to whom x834 thou shalt come, 935 z8799 and I will make 5414 z8804 x853 all x3605 thine enemies 341 z8802 turn their backs 6203 unto x413 thee.

 23:28 And I will send 7971 z8804 x853 hornets 6880 before 6440 thee, which shall drive out 1644 z8765 x853 the Hivite, 2340 x853 the Canaanite, 3669 and the Hittite, 2850 from before 6440 x4480 thee.

 23:29 I will not x3808 drive them out 1644 z8762 from before 6440 x4480 thee in one 259 year; 8141 lest x6435 the land 776 become x1961 desolate, 8077 and the beast 2416 of the field 7704 multiply 7227 against x5921 thee.

 23:30 By little 4592 and little 4592 I will drive them out 1644 z8762 from before 6440 x4480 thee, until x5704 x834 thou be increased, 6509 z8799 and inherit 5157 z8804 x853 the land. 776

 23:31 And I will set 7896 z8804 x853 thy bounds 1366 from the Red y5488 sea 3220 x4480 x5488 even unto x5704 the sea 3220 of the Philistines, 6430 and from the desert 4057 x4480 unto x5704 the river: 5104 for x3588 I will deliver 5414 z8799 x853 the inhabitants 3427 z8802 of the land 776 into your hand; 3027 and thou shalt drive them out 1644 z8765 before 6440 x4480 thee.

 23:32 Thou shalt make 3772 z8799 no x3808 covenant 1285 with them, nor with their gods. 430

 23:33 They shall not x3808 dwell 3427 z8799 in thy land, 776 lest x6435 they make thee sin 2398 z8686 x853 against me: for x3588 if thou serve 5647 z8799 x853 their gods, 430 it will surely x3588 be x1961 a snare 4170 unto thee.
