1 When a man has taken a wife and married her, and it comes to pass that she finds no favor in his eyes because he has found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house.
2 When she departs out of his house, she may go and be another man's wife.
3 If the latter husband hates her, and writes her a bill of divorcement, gives it in her hand, and sends her out of his house; or if the latter husband dies, who took her to be his wife;
4 Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to be his wife, after that she is defiled; for that is an abomination before I AM (Lord): and you shall not cause the land to sin, which I AM (Lord) your God (‘Elohiym) gives you for an inheritance.
5 When a man has taken a new wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall he be charged with any business: but he shall be free at home one year, and shall cheer up his wife which he has taken.
6 No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone (used to grind grain) for a pledge: for he takes a man's life as a pledge.
7 If a man is found stealing any from his brethren of the children of God Prevails (Israel), and makes merchandise of him, or sells him; then that thief shall die, and you shall put evil away from among you.
8 Take heed in the plague of leprosy, that you observe diligently, and do according to all that the priests the Children of Joined To (Levites) shall teach you: as I commanded them, so you shall observe to do.
9 Remember what I AM (Lord) your God (‘Elohiym) did to Rebellion (Miriam) by the way, after you came out of Double Straights (Egypt).
10 When you lend your brother anything, you shall not go into his house to fetch his pledge.
11 You shall stand outside, and the man to whom you lend shall bring the pledge outside to you.
12 If the man is poor, you shall not sleep with his pledge:
13 In any case, you shall deliver him the pledge again when the sun goes down, that he may sleep in his own clothing, and bless you: and it shall be righteousness to you before I AM (Lord) your God (‘Elohiym).
14 You shall not oppress a hired servant that is poor and needy, whether he is of your brethren, or of the strangers that are in your land within your gates:
15 At the end of the day, you shall give him his hire, neither shall the sun go down on it; for he is poor, and sets his heart on it: lest he cries against you to I AM (Lord), and it becomes sin to you.
16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
17 You shall not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the fatherless; nor take a widow's clothing as a pledge:
18 But you shall remember that you were slaves in Double Straights (Egypt), and I AM (Lord) your God (‘Elohiym) redeemed you from there: therefore, I command you to do this thing.
19 When you cut down the harvest in your field, and have forgotten a sheaf in the field, you shall not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that I AM (Lord) your God (‘Elohiym) may bless you in all the work of your hands.
20 When you beat your olive tree, you shall not go over the boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
21 When you gather the grapes of your vineyard, you shall not glean it afterward: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.
22 Remember that you were a bondman in the land of Double Straights (Egypt): therefore, I command you to do this thing.
