6Thou shalt not wrestH5186 the judgmentH4941 of thy poorH34 in his causeH7379. 7Keep thee farH7368 from a falseH8267 matterH1697; and the innocentH5355 and righteousH6662 slayH2026 thou not: for I will not justifyH6663 the wickedH7563.

8And thou shalt takeH3947 no giftH7810: for the giftH7810 blindethH5786 the wiseH6493, and pervertethH5557 the wordsH1697 of the righteousH6662.1
