  21:1 ¶
And if one be found slain with the sword in the land, which the Lord thy God gives thee to inherit, having fallen in the field, and they do not know who has smitten [him]; |
|
21:1 ¶
If°
[one] be found°°
slain°
in the land°
which°
Yahweh°
thy Elohim°
giveth°°
thee to possess°°
it, lying°°
in the field,°
[and] it be not°
known°°
who°
hath slain°°
him: |
|
21:2
thine elders and thy judges shall come forth, and shall measure the distances of the cities round about the slain man: |
|
21:2
Then thy elders°
and thy judges°°
shall come forth,°°
and they shall measure°°
unto°
the cities°
which°
[are] round about°
him that is slain:° |
|
21:3
and it shall be that the city which is nearest to the slain man the elders of that city shall take a heifer of the herd, which has not laboured, and which has not borne a yoke. |
|
21:3
And it shall be,°
[that] the city°
[which is] next°
unto°
the slain man,°
even the elders°
of that°
city°
shall take°°
an heifer,°°
which°
hath not°
been wrought°
with,°°
[and] which°
hath not°
drawn°°
in the yoke;° |
|
21:4
And the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer into a rough valley, which has not been tilled and is not sown, and they shall slay the heifer in the valley. |
|
21:4
And the elders°
of that°
city°
shall bring down°°°
the heifer°
unto°
a rough°
valley,°
which°
is neither°
eared°°
nor°
sown,°°
and shall strike off°°°°
the heifer's°
neck°°°
there°
in the valley:° |
|
21:5
And the priests the Levites shall come, because the Lord God has chosen them to stand by him, and to bless in his name, and by their word shall every controversy and every stroke be [decided]. |
|
21:5
And the priests°
the sons°
of Levi°
shall come near;°°
for°
them Yahweh°
thy Elohim°
hath chosen°°
to minister°°
unto him, and to bless°°
in the name°
of Yahweh;°
and by°
their word°
shall every°
controversy°
and every°
stroke°
be°
[tried]: |
|
21:6
And all the elders of that city who draw nigh to the slain man shall wash their hands over the head of the heifer which was slain in the valley; |
|
21:6
And all°
the elders°
of that°
city,°
[that are] next°
unto°
the slain°
[man], shall wash°°°
their hands°
over°
the heifer°
that is beheaded°°
in the valley:° |
|
21:7
and they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed this blood, and our eyes have not seen [it]. |
|
21:7
And they shall answer°°
and say,°°
Our hands°
have not°
shed°°°
this°
blood,°
neither°
have our eyes°
seen°°
[it]. |
|
21:8
Be merciful to thy people Israel, whom thou hast redeemed, O Lord, that innocent blood may not be charged on thy people Israel: and the blood shall be atoned for to them. |
|
21:8
Be merciful,°°
O Yahweh,°
unto thy people°
Israel,°
whom°
thou hast redeemed,°°
and lay°°
not°
innocent°
blood°
unto thy people°
of Israel's°
charge.°
And the blood°
shall be forgiven°°
them. |
|
21:9
And thou shalt take away innocent blood from among you, if thou shouldest do that which is good and pleasing before the Lord thy God. |
|
21:9
So shalt thou°
put away°°
the [guilt of] innocent°
blood°
from among°°
you, when°
thou shalt do°°
[that which is] right°
in the sight°
of Yahweh.° |
|
21:10 ¶
And if when thou goest out to war against thine enemies, the Lord thy God should deliver them into thine hands, and thou shouldest take their spoil, |
|
21:10 ¶
When°
thou goest forth°°
to war°
against°
thine enemies,°°
and Yahweh°
thy Elohim°
hath delivered°°
them into thine hands,°
and thou hast taken°°
them captive,° |
|
21:11
and shouldest see among the spoil a woman beautiful in countenance, and shouldest desire her, and take her to thyself for a wife, |
|
21:11
And seest°°
among the captives°
a beautiful°°°
woman,°
and hast a desire°°
unto her, that thou wouldest have°
her°°
to thy wife;° |
|
21:12
and shouldest bring her within thine house: then shalt thou shave her head, and pare her nails; |
|
21:12
Then thou shalt bring°°
her home°
to thine house;°
and she shall shave°°°
her head,°
and pare°°°
her nails;° |
|
21:13
and shalt take away her garments of captivity from off her, and she shall abide in thine house, and shall bewail her father and mother the days of a month; and afterwards thou shalt go in to her and dwell with her, and she shall be thy wife. |
|
21:13
And she shall put°°°
the raiment°
of her captivity°
from off°°
her, and shall remain°°
in thine house,°
and bewail°°°
her father°
and her mother°
a full°
month:°
and after°
that°
thou shalt go°°
in°
unto°
her, and be her husband,°°°
and she shall be°
thy wife.° |
|
21:14
And it shall be if thou do not delight in her, thou shalt send her out free; and she shall not by any means be sold for money, thou shalt not treat her contemptuously, because thou hast humbled her. |
|
21:14
And it shall be,°
if°
thou have no delight°°°
in her, then thou shalt let her go°°
whither she will;°
but thou shalt not°
sell°°
her at all°°
for money,°
thou shalt not°
make merchandise°°
of her, because°°
thou hast humbled°°
her. |
|
21:15 ¶
And if a man have two wives, the one loved and the other hated, and both the loved and the hated should have born him [children], and the son of the hated should be first-born; |
|
21:15 ¶
If°
a man°
have°
two°
wives,°
one°
beloved,°°
and another°
hated,°°
and they have born°°
him children,°
[both] the beloved°°
and the hated;°°
and [if] the firstborn°
son°
be°
hers that was hated:° |
|
21:16
then it shall be that whensoever he shall divide by inheritance his goods to his sons, he shall not be able to give the right of the first-born to the son of the loved one, having overlooked the son of the hated, which is the first-born. |
|
21:16
Then it shall be,°
when°
he maketh°
his sons°
to inherit°°°
[that] which°
he hath,°
[that] he may°°
not°
make°°
the son°
of the beloved°°
firstborn°°
before°°
the son°
of the hated,°°
[which is indeed] the firstborn:° |
|
21:17
But he shall acknowledge the first-born of the hated one to give to him double of all things which shall be found by him, because he is the first of his children, and to him belongs the birthright. |
|
21:17
But°
he shall acknowledge°°
the son°
of the hated°°°
[for] the firstborn,°
by giving°°
him a double°
portion°
of all°
that°
he hath:°°
for°
he°
[is] the beginning°
of his strength;°
the right°
of the firstborn°
[is] his. |
|
21:18 ¶
And if any man has a disobedient and contentious son, who hearkens not to the voice of his father and the voice of his mother, and they should correct him, and he should not hearken to them; |
|
21:18 ¶
If°
a man°
have°
a stubborn°°
and rebellious°°
son,°
which will not°
obey°°
the voice°
of his father,°
or the voice°
of his mother,°
and [that], when they have chastened°°
him, will not°
hearken°°
unto°
them: |
|
21:19
then shall his father and his mother take hold of him, and bring him forth to the elders of his city, and to the gate of the place: |
|
21:19
Then shall his father°
and his mother°
lay hold°°
on him, and bring him out°°°
unto°
the elders°
of his city,°
and unto°
the gate°
of his place;° |
|
21:20
and they shall say to the men of their city, This our son is disobedient and contentious, he hearkens not to our voice, he is a reveler and a drunkard. |
|
21:20
And they shall say°°
unto°
the elders°
of his city,°
This°
our son°
[is] stubborn°°
and rebellious,°°
he will not°
obey°°
our voice;°
[he is] a glutton,°°
and a drunkard.°° |
|
21:21
And the men of his city shall stone him with stones, and he shall die; and thou shalt remove the evil one from yourselves, and the rest shall hear and fear. |
|
21:21
And all°
the men°°
of his city°
shall stone°°
him with stones,°
that he die:°°
so shalt thou put°°
evil°
away°°°
from among°°
you; and all°
Israel°
shall hear,°°
and fear.°° |
|
21:22 ¶
And if there be sin in any one, [and] the judgment of death [be upon him], and he be put to death, and ye hang him on a tree: |
|
21:22 ¶
And if°
a man°
have committed°
a sin°
worthy°
of°
death,°
and he be to be put to death,°°
and thou hang°°
him on°
a tree:° |
|
21:23
his body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but ye shall by all means bury it in that day; for every one that is hanged on a tree is cursed of God; and ye shall by no means defile the land which the Lord thy God gives thee for an inheritance. |
|
21:23
His body°
shall not°
remain all night°°
upon°
the tree,°
but°
thou shalt in any wise°°
bury°°
him that°
day;°
(for°
he that is hanged°°
[is] accursed°
of Elohim;)°
that°
thy land°
be not°
defiled,°°
which°
Yahweh°
thy Elohim°
giveth°°
thee [for] an inheritance.° |
