We will notH3808 giveH5414 our daughters in marriageH1323 to the peopleH5971 of the landH776, and we will notH3808 takeH3947 their daughtersH1323 for our sonsH1121.

31When the peopleH5971 of the landH776 bringH935 merchandiseH4728 or anyH3605 kind of grainH7668 to sellH4376 on the SabbathH7676 dayH3117, we will notH3808 buyH3947 from them on a SabbathH7676 or holyH6944 dayH3117. Every seventhH7637 yearH8141 we will let the fields lie fallowH5203 and will cancel everyH3605H3027 debtH4855.
