|
|
3. and it shall be, that the city which is nearest unto the slain man, even the elders of that city shall take an heifer of the herd, which hath not been wrought with, and which hath not drawn in the yoke;
|
3. And it shall be H1961 , that the city H5892 which is next H7138 unto H413 the slain man H2491 , even the elders H2205 of that H1931 city H5892 shall take H3947 a heifer H5697 H1241 , which H834 hath not H3808 been wrought H5647 with, and which H834 hath not H3808 drawn H4900 in the yoke H5923 ;
|
|
4. and the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer unto a valley with running water, which is neither plowed nor sown, and shall break the heifer�s neck there in the valley:
|
4. And the elders H2205 of that H1931 city H5892 shall bring down H3381 H853 the heifer H5697 unto H413 a rough H386 valley H5158 , which H834 is neither H3808 eared H5647 nor H3808 sown H2232 , and shall strike off H6203 H853 the heifer H5697 's neck H6203 there H8033 in the valley H5158 :
|
|
5. and the priests the sons of Levi shall come near; for them the LORD thy God hath chosen to minister unto him, and to bless in the name of the LORD; and according to their word shall every controversy and every stroke be:
|
5.

|
|
7. and they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it.
|
7. And they shall answer H6030 and say H559 , Our hands H3027 have not H3808 shed H8210 H853 this H2088 blood H1818 , neither H3808 have our eyes H5869 seen H7200 it .
|
|
8. Forgive, O LORD, thy people Israel, whom thou hast redeemed, and suffer not innocent blood {cf15i to remain} in the midst of thy people Israel. And the blood shall be forgiven them.
|
8. Be merciful H3722 , O LORD H3068 , unto thy people H5971 Israel H3478 , whom H834 thou hast redeemed H6299 , and lay H5414 not H408 innocent H5355 blood H1818 unto thy people H5971 of Israel H3478 's charge H7130 . And the blood H1818 shall be forgiven H3722 them.

|
9. So shalt thou H859 put away H1197 the guilt of innocent H5355 blood H1818 from among H4480 H7130 you, when H3588 thou shalt do H6213 that which is right H3477 in the sight H5869 of the LORD H3068 .
|
|
10. When thou goest forth to battle against thine enemies, and the LORD thy God delivereth them into thine hands, and thou carriest them away captive,
|
10. When H3588 thou goest forth H3318 to war H4421 against H5921 thine enemies H341 , and the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hath delivered H5414 them into thine hands H3027 , and thou hast taken H7617 them captive H7628 ,
|
|
11. and seest among the captives a beautiful woman, and thou hast a desire unto her, and wouldest take her to thee to wife;
|
11. And seest H7200 among the captives H7633 a beautiful H3033 H8389 woman H802 , and hast a desire H2836 unto her , that thou wouldest have H3947 her to thy wife H802 ;
|
|
12. then thou shalt bring her home to thine house; and she shall shave her head, and pare her nails;
|
12. Then thou shalt bring H935 her home H8432 to thine house H1004 ; and she shall shave H1548 H853 her head H7218 , and pare H6213 H853 her nails H6856 ;
|
|
13. and she shall put the raiment of her captivity from off her, and shall remain in thine house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month: and after that thou shalt go in unto her, and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife.
|
13. And she shall put H5493 H853 the raiment H8071 of her captivity H7628 from off H4480 H5921 her , and shall remain H3427 in thine house H1004 , and bewail H1058 H853 her father H1 and her mother H517 a full H3117 month H3391 : and after H310 that H3651 thou shalt go in H935 unto H413 her , and be her husband H1167 , and she shall be H1961 thy wife H802 .
|
|
14. And it shall be, if thou have no delight in her, then thou shalt let her go whither she will; but thou shalt not sell her at all for money, thou shalt not deal with her as a slave, because thou hast humbled her.
|
14. And it shall be H1961 , if H518 thou have no delight H2654 H3808 in her , then thou shalt let her go H7971 whither she will H5315 ; but thou shalt not H3808 sell her at all H4376 H4376 for money H3701 , thou shalt not H3808 make merchandise H6014 of her, because H8478 H834 thou hast humbled H6031 her.
|
|
15. If a man have two wives, the one beloved, and the other hated, and they have borne him children, both the beloved and the hated; and if the firstborn son be hers that was hated;
|
15. If H3588 a man H376 have H1961 two H8147 wives H802 , one H259 beloved H157 , and another H259 hated H8130 , and they have born H3205 him children H1121 , both the beloved H157 and the hated H8130 ; and if the firstborn H1060 son H1121 be H1961 hers that was hated H8146 :
|
|
16. then it shall be, in the day that he causeth his sons to inherit that which he hath, that he may not make the son of the beloved the firstborn before the son of the hated, which is the firstborn:
|
16. Then it shall be H1961 , when H3117 he maketh H853 his sons H1121 to inherit H5157 H853 that which H834 he hath H1961 , that he may H3201 not H3808 make H1069 H853 the son H1121 of the beloved H157 firstborn H1069 before H5921 H6440 the son H1121 of the hated H8130 , which is indeed the firstborn H1060 :
|
|
17. but he shall acknowledge the firstborn, the son of the hated, by giving him a double portion of all that he hath: for he is the beginning of his strength; the right of the firstborn is his.
|
17. But H3588 he shall acknowledge H5234 the son H1121 of the hated H8130 H853 for the firstborn H1060 , by giving H5414 him a double H8147 portion H6310 of all H3605 that H834 he hath H4672 : for H3588 he H1931 is the beginning H7225 of his strength H202 ; the right H4941 of the firstborn H1062 is his.
|
|
18. If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, which will not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and though they chasten him, will not hearken unto them:
|
18. If H3588 a man H376 have H1961 a stubborn H5637 and rebellious H4784 son H1121 , which will not H369 obey H8085 the voice H6963 of his father H1 , or the voice H6963 of his mother H517 , and that , when they have chastened H3256 him , will not H3808 hearken H8085 unto H413 them:
|
|
19. then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring him out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his place;
|
19. Then shall his father H1 and his mother H517 lay hold H8610 on him , and bring him out H3318 H853 unto H413 the elders H2205 of his city H5892 , and unto H413 the gate H8179 of his place H4725 ;
|
|
20. and they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a riotous liver, and a drunkard.
|
20. And they shall say H559 unto H413 the elders H2205 of his city H5892 , This H2088 our son H1121 is stubborn H5637 and rebellious H4784 , he will not H369 obey H8085 our voice H6963 ; he is a glutton H2151 , and a drunkard H5433 .
|
|
21. And all the men of his city shall stone him with stones, that he die: so shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee; and all Israel shall hear, and fear.
|
21. And all H3605 the men H376 of his city H5892 shall stone H7275 him with stones H68 , that he die H4191 : so shalt thou put evil away H1197 H7451 from among H4480 H7130 you ; and all H3605 Israel H3478 shall hear H8085 , and fear H3372 .
|
|
22. And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree;
|
22. And if H3588 a man H376 have committed H1961 a sin H2399 worthy H4941 of death H4194 , and he be to be put to death H4191 , and thou hang H8518 him on H5921 a tree H6086 :
|
|
23. his body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt surely bury him the same day; for he that is hanged is accursed of God; that thou defile not thy land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.
|
23. His body H5038 shall not H3808 remain all night H3885 upon H5921 the tree H6086 , but H3588 thou shalt in any wise bury H6912 H6912 him that H1931 day H3117 ; ( for H3588 he that is hanged H8518 is accursed H7045 of God;) H430 that H853 thy land H127 be not H3808 defiled H2930 , which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 giveth H5414 thee for an inheritance H5159 .
