5“But ifH3588 a manH376 is righteousH6662 and practicesH6213 justiceH4941 and righteousnessH6666, 6if he does not 1eatH398 at the mountainH2022 shrines or 2raiseH5375 his eyesH5869 to the idolsH1544 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, or 3defileH2930 his neighbor’sH7453 wifeH802 or approachH7126 a womanH802 during her menstrualH5079 periodH5079-- 7and if 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, 8and if he does not 7lendH5414 money at 8interestH5392 or takeH3947 910interestH8636, if he keepsH7725 his handH3027 from injusticeH5766 and 11executesH6213 trueH571 justiceH4941 betweenH996 oneH376 personH376 and anotherH376, 9if he walksH1980 in 12My statutesH2708 and keepsH8104 My ordinancesH4941 so as to dealH6213 faithfullyH571--13he is righteousH6662 and will certainlyH2421 14liveH2421,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068.
10“However, he may fatherH3205 a violentH6530 sonH1121 who shedsH8210 bloodH1818, and doesH6213 anyH4480 oneH259 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 15defilesH2930 his neighbor’sH7453 wifeH802, 12oppressesH3238 the 16poorH6041 and needyH34, 17commitsH1497 robberyH1500, does not restoreH7725 a pledgeH2258, but raisesH5375 his eyesH5869 to the idolsH1544 and 18commitsH6213 abominationH8441, 1319lendsH5414 money at interestH5392 and takesH3947 20interestH8636; will he liveH2421? He will not liveH2421! He has committedH6213 allH3605 theseH428 abominationsH8441, he shall certainlyH4191 be putH4191 toH4191 deathH4191; his 21bloodH1818 will be on himself.
