Bible. Deuteronomy
05:016:015 Seven days shalt thou keep a solemn feast unto the LORD thy
God in the place which the LORD shall choose: because the LORD
thy God shall bless thee in all thine increase, and in all the
works of thine hands, therefore thou shalt surely rejoice.
05:016:016 Three times in a year shall all thy males appear before the
LORD thy God in the place which he shall choose; in the feast
of unleavened bread, and in the feast of weeks, and in the
feast of tabernacles: and they shall not appear before the
LORD empty:
05:016:017 Every man shall give as he is able, according to the blessing
of the LORD thy God which he hath given thee.
05:016:018 Judges and officers shalt thou make thee in all thy gates,
which the LORD thy God giveth thee, throughout thy tribes: and
they shall judge the people with just judgment.
05:016:019 Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons,
neither take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the
wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.
05:016:020 That which is altogether just shalt thou follow, that thou
mayest live, and inherit the land which the LORD thy God
giveth thee.
05:016:021 Thou shalt not plant thee a grove of any trees near unto the
altar of the LORD thy God, which thou shalt make thee.
05:016:022 Neither shalt thou set thee up any image; which the LORD thy
God hateth.
05:017:001 Thou shalt not sacrifice unto the LORD thy God any bullock, or
sheep, wherein is blemish, or any evilfavouredness: for that
is an abomination unto the LORD thy God.
05:017:002 If there be found among you, within any of thy gates which the
LORD thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that hath wrought
wickedness in the sight of the LORD thy God, in transgressing
his covenant,
05:017:003 And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them,
either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I
have not commanded;
05:017:004 And it be told thee, and thou hast heard of it, and enquired
diligently, and, behold, it be true, and the thing certain,
that such abomination is wrought in Israel:
05:017:005 Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman, which have
committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, even that man or
that woman, and shalt stone them with stones, till they die.
05:017:006 At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he
that is worthy of death be put to death; but at the mouth of
one witness he shall not be put to death.
05:017:007 The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him
to death, and afterward the hands of all the people. So thou
shalt put the evil away from among you.
