5“But ifH3588 a manH376 is righteousH6662 and practicesH6213 justiceH4941 and righteousnessH6666, 6and does not 1eatH398 at the mountainH2022 shrines or 2liftH5375 up his eyesH5869 to the idolsH1544 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, or 3defileH2930 his neighbor’sH7453 wifeH802 or approachH7126 a womanH802 during her menstrualH5079 periodH5079-- 7if a manH376 does not oppressH3238 anyone, but 4restoresH7725 to the debtorH2326 his pledgeH2260, 5does not commitH1497 robberyH1500, but 6givesH5414 his breadH3899 to the hungryH7457 and coversH3680 the nakedH5903 with clothingH899, 8if he does not lendH5414 money on 7interestH5392 or takeH3947 8increaseH8636, if he keepsH7725 his handH3027 from iniquityH5766 and 9executesH6213 trueH571 justiceH4941 betweenH996 manH376 and manH376, 9if he walksH1980 in 10My statutesH2708 and My ordinancesH4941 so as to dealH6213 faithfullyH571--11he is righteousH6662 and will surelyH2421 12liveH2421,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068.

10“Then he may 13haveH3205 a violentH6530 sonH1121 who shedsH8210 bloodH1818 and who doesH6213 anyH4480H259 of theseH428 thingsH428 to a brotherH251 11(though he himselfH1931 did not doH6213 anyH3605 of theseH428 thingsH428), that is, he evenH1571 eatsH398 at the mountainH2022 shrines, and 14defilesH2930 his neighbor’sH7453 wifeH802, 12oppressesH3238 the 15poorH6041 and needyH34, 16commitsH1497 robberyH1500, does not restoreH7725 a pledgeH2258, but liftsH5375 up his eyesH5869 to the idolsH1544 and 17commitsH6213 abominationH8441, 13he 18lendsH5414 money on interestH5392 and takesH3947 increaseH8636; will he liveH2421? He will not liveH2421! He has committedH6213 allH3605 theseH428 abominationsH8441, he will surelyH4191 be putH4191 to deathH4191; his 19bloodH1818 will be 20on his own head.
