Understand, therefore, that the LORD thy God, he is God: and that a true God, which keepeth covenant and mercy unto them that love him and keep his commandments, even throughout a thousand generations;

See that ye destroy all places where the nations which ye conquer serve their gods, upon high mountains and on high hills and under every green tree.

Then seek and make search and enquire diligently. If it be true, and the thing of a surety that such abomination is wrought among you:

Then take an awl and nail his ear to the door therewith and let him be thy servant forever, and unto thy maidservant thou shalt do likewise.

and it was told thee and thou hast heard of it: Then thou shalt enquire diligently. And if it be true and the thing of a surety that such abomination is wrought in Israel,

If a man have committed a trespass worthy of death and is put to death for it and hanged on tree:

let not his body remain all night upon the tree, but bury him the same day. For the curse of God is on him that is hanged. Defile not thy land therefore, which the LORD thy God giveth thee to inherit.

If thou chance upon a bird's nest by the way, in whatsoever tree it be or on the ground, whether they be young or eggs, and the dam sitting upon the young or upon the eggs: thou shalt not take the mother with the young.

let them bring her unto the door of her father's house, and let the men of that city stone her with stones to death, because she hath wrought folly in Israel, to play the whore in her father's house. And so thou shalt put evil away from thee.

but shalt stand without and the man to whom thou lendest, shall bring thee the pledge out at the door.

Yea, and the woman that is so tender and delicate among you that she dare not venture to set the sole of her foot upon the ground for softness and tenderness, shall be grieved to look on the husband that lieth in her bosom and on her son and on her daughter -

And the LORD appeared in the tabernacle in a cloudy pillar, and the same cloudy pillar stood in the door of the tabernacle.
