1 “When a man takes a wife and has married her, and it will be, if she does not find grace in his eyes (for he has found nakedness in her of anything), then he will write a writing of divorce for her, and give it into her hand, and send her out of his house. 2 When she has gone out of his house, and has gone and been another man’s, 3 and the latter man hates her, and writes a writing of divorce for her, and gives it into her hand, and sends her out of his house, or when the latter man dies, who had taken her to himself for a wife, 4 her former husband who sent her away will not be able to return to take her to be to him for a wife, after that she will become defiled. For it will be an abomination before YHWH, and you will not cause the land to sin which your God YHWH has given to you for an inheritance. 5 When a man takes a new wife, he will not go out into the host, and one will not pass over to him for anything. He will be free at his own house for one year, and his wife, whom he has taken, he will make glad. 6 No one will take millstones and rider in pledge, for it is one’s life he will be taking in pledge. 7 When a man is found stealing a person from his brothers, from the sons of Israel, and has tyrannized over him and sold him, then that thief will die, and you will put away evil out of your middle. 8 Take heed in the plague of leprosy, to watch greatly, and to do according to all that the priests, the Levites, teach you. You will observe to do as I have commanded them. 9 Remember that which your God YHWH had done to Miriam in the way, in your coming out of Egypt. 10 When you lift up a debt of anything on your brother, you will not go into his house to obtain his pledge. 11 You will stand at the outside, and the man on whom you are lifting it up will bring out the pledge to you at the outside. 12 And if he is a poor man, you will not lie down with his pledge. 13 You will certainly give back the pledge to him at the going in of the sun, and he will lay down in his own raiment and will bless you. And it will be righteousness to you before your God YHWH. 14 You will not oppress a hired worker, poor and needy, of your brothers or of your sojourner who is in your land within your gates. 15 You will give his hire in his day, and the sun will not go in on it, for he is poor, and he is supporting his life on it, lest he cries against you to YHWH, and it will be sin in you. 16 Fathers will not be put to death for sons, and sons will not be put to death for fathers—they will each be put to death for his own sin. 17 You will not turn aside the judgment of a fatherless sojourner, nor take the garment of a widow in pledge. 18 And you will remember that you were a servant in Egypt, and your God YHWH ransomed you from there. Therefore I am commanding you to do this thing. 19 When you reap your harvest in your field, and have forgotten a sheaf in a field, you will not return to take it. It will be for the sojourner, for the fatherless, and for the widow, so that your God YHWH blesses you in all the work of your hands. 20 When you beat your olive, you will not examine the branch behind you. It will be for the sojourner, for the fatherless, and for the widow. 21 When you cut your vineyard, you will not glean behind you. It will be for the sojourner, for the fatherless, and for the widow. 22 And you will remember that you were a servant in the land of Egypt. Therefore I am commanding you to do this thing.”
