Exodus 23:1-9

1Thou shalt not accept a false reportH8088; extend not thy handH3027 to the wickedH7563, to beH1961 an unrighteous witnessH5707.

2Thou shalt not follow the multitude for evilH7451; neither shalt thou answerH6030 in a causeH7379, to go after the multitude to pervert [judgment].

3Neither shalt thou favour a poorH1800 man in his causeH7379.

4— If thou meetH6293 thine enemy's oxH7794 or his ass goingH7725 astrayH8582, thou shalt certainly bringH7725 it backH7725 to him.

5If thou seeH7200 the ass of him that hateth thee lyingH7257 under its burdenH4853, beware of leavingH5800 [it] to him: thou shalt certainly loosen [it] with him.

6Thou shalt not pervert the judgmentH4941 of thy poor in his causeH7379.

7Thou shalt keep farH7368 from the cause of falsehoodH8267; and the innocentH5355 and righteousH6662 slayH2026 not; for I will not justifyH6663 the wickedH7563.

8And thou shalt takeH3947 no bribeH7810; for the bribeH7810 blindeth those whose eyes are open, and perverteth the wordsH1697 of the righteousH6662.

9And the stranger thou shalt not oppressH3905; for ye knowH3045 the spirit of the stranger, for ye have beenH1961 strangers in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
