Thou shalt not muzzle the ox that treadeth out the corn.

Thou shalt not have in thy bag two manner weights, a great and a small:

neither shalt thou have in thine house divers measures, a great and a small.

But thou shalt have a perfect and a just measure: that thy days may be lengthened in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.

Remember what Amalek did unto thee by the way after thou camest out of Egypt:

he met thee by the way and smote the hindmost of you, all that were over laboured and dragged behind, when thou wast fainted and weary, and he feared not God.

Therefore when the LORD thy God hath given thee rest from all thine enemies round about, in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee to inherit and possess: see that thou put out the name of Amalek from under heaven, and forget not.

When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee to inherit and hast enjoyed it and dwellest therein:

take of the first of all the fruit of the earth, which thou hast brought in out of the land that the LORD thy God giveth thee and put it in a maund and go unto the place which the LORD thy God shall choose to make his name dwell there.

And thou shalt come unto the priest that shall be in those days and say unto him, 'I knowledge this day unto the LORD thy God, that I am come unto the country which the LORD sware unto our fathers for to give us.'

And thou shalt answer and say before the LORD thy God, 'The Syrians would have destroyed my father, and he went down into Egypt and sojourned there with a few folk and grew there unto a nation great, mighty and full of people.

and rejoice over all the good things which the LORD thy God hath given unto thee and unto thine house, both thou the Levite and the stranger that is among you.

When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thine increase the third year, the year of tithing - and hast given it unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless and the widow, and they have eaten in thy gates and filled themselves

- then say before the LORD thy God, 'I have brought thee hallowed things out of mine house: and have given them unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless and the widow according to all the commandments which thou commandest me: I have not overskipped thy commandments, nor forgotten them.

Look down from thy holy habitation heaven and bless thy people Israel and the land which thou hast given us - as thou swearest unto our fathers - a land that floweth with milk and honey.'

Thou hast set up the LORD this day to be thy God and to walk in his ways and to keep his ordinances, his commandments and his laws, and to hearken unto his voice.

And the LORD hath set thee up this day, to be a several people unto him - as he hath promised thee - and that thou keep his commandments,

and to make thee high above all nations which he hath made, in praise, in name and honour: that thou mayest be a holy people unto the LORD thy God, as he hath said."

and write upon them all the words of this law, when thou art come over: that thou mayest come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee: a land that floweth with milk and honey, as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised thee.

And there build, unto the LORD thy God, an altar of stones; and see thou lift up no iron upon them.

But thou shalt make the altar of the LORD thy God of rough stones and offer burnt offerings thereon unto the LORD thy God.

And thou shalt offer peace offerings and shalt eat there and rejoice before the LORD thy God.

And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this law, manifestly and well."

And Moses, with the priests the Levites, spake unto all Israel, saying, "Take heed and hear, Israel: this day thou art become the people of the LORD thy God.

If thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, the LORD will set thee on high above all nations of the earth.

And all these blessings shall come on thee and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.

Blessed shalt thou be in the town and blessed in the fields;

Blessed shalt thou be, both when thou goest out, and blessed when thou comest in.

The LORD shall command the blessing to be with thee in thy store houses and in all that thou settest thine hand to, and will bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee.

"The LORD shall make thee a holy people unto himself, as he hath sworn unto thee, if thou shalt keep the commandments of the LORD thy God and walk in his ways.

And all nations of the earth shall see that thou art called after the name of the LORD, and they shall be afeared of thee.

"The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, even the heaven, to give rain unto thy land in due season and to bless all the labours of thine hand. And thou shalt lend unto many nations, but shalt not need to borrow thyself.

And the LORD shall set thee before and not behind, and thou shalt be above only and not beneath: if that thou hearken unto the commandments of the LORD thy God which I command thee this day to keep and to do them.

And see that thou bow not from any of these words which I command thee this day, either to the righthand or to the left, that thou wouldest go after strange gods to serve them.

"But and if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God to keep and to do all his commandments and ordinances which I command thee this day; then all these curses shall come upon thee and overtake thee:

Cursed shalt thou be in the town, and cursed in the field;

And cursed shalt thou be when thou goest in, and when thou goest out.

And the LORD shall send upon thee cursing, going to nought, and complaining in all that thou settest thine hand to; whatsoever thou doest, until thou be destroyed and brought to nought quickly, because of the wickedness of thine inventions in that thou hast forsaken the LORD.

And the LORD shall make the pestilence cleave unto thee, until he have consumed thee from the land whither thou goest to enjoy it.

And the LORD shall smite thee with swelling, with fevers, heat, burning, weathering, with smiting and blasting. And they shall follow thee, until thou perish.

And the LORD shall turn the rain of the land unto powder and dust: even from heaven they shall come down upon thee, until thou be brought to nought.

And the LORD shall plague thee before thine enemies: Thou shalt come out one way against them, and flee seven ways before them, and shalt be scattered among all the kingdoms of the earth.

"And the LORD will smite thee with the botches of Egypt and the hemorrhoids, scall and manginess, that thou shalt not be healed thereof.

And thou shalt grope at noonday as the blind gropeth in darkness, and shalt not come to the right way. And thou shalt suffer violence and wrong all thy life long, and no man shall help thee.

Thou shalt be betrothed unto a wife, and another shall lie with her. Thou shalt build a house and another shall dwell therein. Thou shalt plant a vineyard, and shalt not make it common.

Thine ox shall be slain before thine eyes, and thou shalt not eat thereof. Thine ass shall be violently taken away even before thy face, and shall not be restored thee again. Thy sheep shall be given unto thine enemies, and no man shall help thee.

The fruit of thy land and all thy labours shall a nation eat, which thou knowest not; and thou shalt but suffer violence only and be oppressed always,

that thou shalt be clean beside thyself for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.

"The LORD shall smite thee with a mischievous botch in the knees and legs, so that thou canst not be healed: even from the sole of the foot unto the top of the head.

The LORD shall bring both thee and thy king which thou hast set over thee, unto a nation which neither thou nor thy fathers have known, and there thou shalt serve strange gods: even wood and stone.

And thou shalt go to waste and be made an example and a jestingstock unto all nations whither the LORD shall carry thee.

Thou shalt carry much seed out into the field, and shalt gather but little in: for the grasshoppers shall destroy it.

Thou shalt plant a vineyard and dress it, but shalt neither drink of the wine neither gather of the grapes: for the worms shall eat it.

Thou shalt have olive trees in all thy coasts, but shalt not be anointed with the oil: for thine olive trees shall be rooted out.

Thou shalt get sons and daughters, but shalt not have them: for they shall be carried away captive.

The strangers that are among you shall climb above thee up on high, and thou shalt come down beneath a-low.

He shall lend thee and thou shalt not lend him, he shall be before and thou behind.

"Moreover, all these curses shall come upon thee and shall follow thee and overtake thee, till thou be destroyed: because thou hearkenedest not unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and ordinances which he commanded thee;

And because thou servedest not the LORD thy God with joyfulness and with a good heart for the abundance of all things,

therefore thou shalt serve thine enemy which the LORD shall send upon thee: in hunger and thirst, in nakedness and in need of all things. And he shall put a yoke of iron upon thine neck, until he have brought thee to nought.

"And the LORD shall bring a nation upon thee from afar, even from the end of the world, as swift as an eagle flyeth: a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;

And he shall keep thee in all thy cities, until thy high and strong walls be come down wherein thou trustedest, through all thy land. And he shall besiege thee in all thy cities throughout all thy land which the LORD thy God hath given thee.

"And thou shalt eat the fruit of thine own body; the flesh of thy sons and of thy daughters which the LORD thy God hath given thee, in that straitness and siege wherewith thine enemy shall besiege thee:

"If thou wilt not be diligent to do all the words of this law that are written in this book, for to fear this glorious and fearful name of the LORD thy God:

and with evil sicknesses and of long durance. Moreover he will bring upon thee all the diseases of Egypt which thou wast afraid of, and they shall cleave unto thee.

Thereto, all manner sicknesses and all manner plagues which are not written in the book of this law, will the LORD bring upon thee until thou be come to nought.

And ye shall be left few in number, wheretofore ye were as the stars of heaven in multitude: because thou wouldest not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God.

"And as the LORD rejoiced over you to do you good and to multiply you: even so he will rejoice over you, to destroy you and to bring you to nought. And ye shall be wasted from off the land whither thou goest to enjoy it.

And the LORD shall scatter thee among all nations from the one end of the world unto the other, and there thou shalt serve strange gods, which neither thou nor thy fathers have known: even wood and stone.

And among these nations thou shalt be no small season, and yet shalt have no rest for the sole of thy foot. For the LORD shall give thee there a trembling heart and dazing eyes and sorrow of mind.

And thy life shall hang before thee, and thou shalt fear both day and night and shalt have no trust in thy life.

In the morning thou shalt say, 'Would God it were night.' And at night thou shalt say, 'Would God it were morning' - for fear of thine heart which thou shalt fear, and for the sight of thine eyes which thou shalt see.

"And the LORD shall bring thee into Egypt again with ships, by the way which I bade thee that thou shouldest see it no more. And there ye shall be sold unto your enemies, for bondmen and bondwomen: and yet no man shall buy you."

that thou shouldest come under the covenant of the LORD thy God, and under his oath which the LORD thy God maketh with thee this day.

When all these words are come upon thee, whether it be the blessing or the curse which I have set before thee; yet if thou turn unto thine heart among all the nations whither the LORD thy God hath thrust thee,

and come again unto the LORD thy God and hearken unto his voice according to all that I command thee this day - both thou and thy children with all thine heart and all thy soul -

Though thou wast cast unto the extreme parts of heaven: even from thence will the LORD thy God gather thee and from thence fetch thee;

and bring thee into the land which thy fathers possessed, and thou shalt enjoy it. And he will show thee kindness and multiply thee above thy fathers.

And the LORD thy God will circumcise thine heart and the heart of thy seed for to love the LORD thy God with all thine heart and all thy soul, that thou mayest live.

"But thou shalt turn and hearken unto the voice of the LORD and do all his commandments which I command thee this day.

If thou hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to keep his commandments and ordinances which are written in the book of this law, if thou turn unto the LORD thy God with all thine heart and all thy soul.

It is not in heaven, that thou needest to say, 'Who shall go up for us into heaven, and fetch it us, that we may hear it and do it?'

Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, 'Who shall go over sea for us and fetch it us that we may hear it and do it?'

But the word is very nigh unto thee; even in thy mouth and in thine heart, that thou do it.

in that I command thee this day to love the LORD thy God and to walk in his ways and to keep his commandments, his ordinances and his laws: that thou mayest live and multiply, and that the LORD thy God may bless thee in the land whither thou goest to possess it.

But and if thine heart turn away, so that thou wilt not hear: but shalt go astray and worship strange gods and serve them,

I pronounce unto you this day, that ye shall surely perish and that ye shall not prolong your days upon the land whither thou passest over Jordan to go and possess it.

I take heaven and earth this day to record over you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing. But choose life, that thou and thy seed may live;

in that thou lovest the LORD thy God, hearkenest unto his voice and cleavest unto him. For he is thy life and the length of thy days, that thou mayest dwell upon the earth which the LORD sware unto thy fathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to give them."

and said unto them, "I am a hundred and twenty years old this day, and can no more go out and in. Also, the LORD hath said unto me, 'Thou shalt not go over this Jordan.'

The LORD your God, he will go over before thee and he will destroy these nations before thee, and thou shalt conquer them. And Joshua, he shall go over before thee, as the LORD hath said.

And Moses called unto Joshua, and said unto him in the sight of all Israel, "Be strong and bold, for thou must go with this people unto the land which the LORD hath sworn unto their fathers to give them, and thou shalt give it them to inherit.

when all Israel is come to appear before the LORD thy God, in the place which he hath chosen: see that thou read this law before all Israel in their ears.

And the LORD said unto Moses, "Behold, thy days are come, that thou must die. Call Joshua and come and stand in the tabernacle of witness, that I may give him a charge." And Moses and Joshua went and stood in the tabernacle of witness.

And the LORD said unto Moses, "Behold, thou must sleep with thy fathers, and this people will go a whoring after strange gods of the land whither they go and will forsake me and break the covenant which I have made with them.

And the Lord gave Joshua the son of Nun a charge and said, "Be bold and strong, for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I sware unto them, and I will be with thee."

"Dost thou so reward the LORD? O foolish nation and unwise. Is not he thy father and thine owner? Hath he not made thee and ordained thee?

With butter of the kine and milk of the sheep, with fat of the lambs, and fat rams and he-goats, with fat kidneys and with wheat. And of the blood of grapes, thou drunkest wine.

"And Israel waxed fat, and kicked. Thou wast fat, thick and smooth. And he let God go, that made him; and despised the rock that saved him.

Of the rock that begat thee thou art unmindful, and hast forgot God that made thee.
