Deuteronomy 25

25
1If there be a controversy between men, and they come unto judgment, that [the judges] may judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked.
2And it shall be, if the wicked man [be] worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his fault, by a certain number.
3Forty stripes he may give him, [and] not exceed: lest, [if] he should exceed, and beat him above these with many stripes, then youi brother should seem vile unto youi.
4youi shall not muzzle the ox when he treads out [the corn].
5If brethren dwell together, and one of them die, and have no child, the wife of the dead shall not marry without unto a stranger: her husband’s brother shall go in unto her, and take her to him to wife, and perform the duty of an husband’s brother unto her.
6And it shall be, [that] the firstborn which she bears shall succeed in the name of his brother [which is] dead, that his name be not put out of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God].
7And if the man like not to take his brother’s wife, then let his brother’s wife go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband’s brother refuses to raise up unto his brother a name in Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], he will not perform the duty of my husband’s brother.
8Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak unto him: and [if] he stand [to it], and say, I like not to take her;
9Then shall his brother’s wife come unto him in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face, and shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto that man that will not build up his brother’s house.
10And his name shall be called in Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God], The house of him that has his shoe loosed.
11When men strive together one with another, and the wife of the one draws near for to deliver her husband out of the hand of him that smites him, and puts forth her hand, and takes him by the secrets:
12Then youi shall cut off her hand, youri eye shall not pity [her].
13youi shall not have in youri bag diverse weights, a great and a small.
14youi shall not have in youri house diverse measures, a great and a small.
15 [But] youi shall have a perfect and just weight, a perfect and just measure shall youi have: that youi days may be lengthened in the land which the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] gives youi.
16For all that do such things, [and] all that do unrighteously, [are] an abomination unto the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered].
17Remember what ‘Amalek [Dweller in a Valley] did unto youi by the way, when you2f were come forth out of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place];
18How he met youi by the way, and struck the hindmost of youi, [even] all [that were] feeble behind youi, when youi [were] faint and weary; and he feared not God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered].
19Therefore it shall be, when the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] has given youi rest from all youi enemies round about, in the land which the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) youi God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] gives youi [for] an inheritance to possess it, [that] youi shall blot out the remembrance of ‘Amalek [Dweller in a Valley] from under heaven; youi shall not forget [it].
