Deuteronomy 25:13-19

13“1You shall not have in your bag 2differing weights, a large and a small. 14You shall not have in your house 3differing measures, a large and a small. 15You shall have a correct and honest 4weight; you shall have a correct and honest 5measure, 6so that your days may be prolonged 7in the land which the Lord your God is giving you. 16For 8everyone who does these things, everyone who acts unjustly is an abomination to the Lord your God.

17“9Remember what Amalek did to you on the way when you came out of Egypt, 18how he confronted you on the way and attacked among you all the stragglers at your rear when you were tired and weary; and he 10did not 11fear God. 19So it shall come about, when the Lord your God has given you 12rest from all your surrounding enemies in the land which the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance to 13possess, that you shall wipe out the mention of the name Amalek from under heaven; you must not forget.
