Holy Name King James Version (KJV)

Deuteronomy 17

1 The things sacrificed must be sound. 2 Idolaters must be slain. 8 Hard controversies are to be determined by the priests and judges. 12 The contemner of that determination must die. 14 The election, 16 and duty of a king.

 17:1 ¶ Thou shalt not x3808 sacrifice 2076 z8799 unto Yahweh 3068 thy Elohim 430 [any] bullock, 7794 or sheep, 7716 wherein x834 is x1961 blemish, 3971 [or] any x3605 evilfavouredness: 7451 1697 for x3588 that x1931 [is] an abomination 8441 unto Yahweh 3068 thy Elohim. 430

 17:2 ¶ If x3588 there be found 4672 z8735 among 7130 you, within any 259 of thy gates 8179 which x834 Yahweh 3068 thy Elohim 430 giveth 5414 z8802 thee, man 376 or x176 woman, 802 that x834 hath wrought 6213 z8799 x853 wickedness 7451 in the sight 5869 of Yahweh 3068 thy Elohim, 430 in transgressing 5674 z8800 his covenant, 1285

 17:3 And hath gone y3212 z8799 x1980 and served 5647 z8799 other 312 elohim, 430 and worshipped 7812 z8691 them, either the sun, 8121 or x176 moon, 3394 or x176 any x3605 of the host 6635 of heaven, 8064 which x834 I have not x3808 commanded; 6680 z8765

 17:4 And it be told 5046 z8717 thee, and thou hast heard 8085 z8804 [of it], and enquired 1875 z8804 diligently, 3190 z8687 and, behold, x2009 [it be] true, 571 [and] the thing 1697 certain, 3559 z8737 [that] such x2063 abomination 8441 is wrought 6213 z8738 in Israel: 3478

 17:5 Then shalt thou bring forth 3318 z8689 x853 that x1931 man 376 or x176 that x1931 woman, 802 which x834 have committed 6213 z8804 x853 that x2088 wicked 7451 thing, 1697 unto x413 thy gates, 8179 [even] x853 that man 376 or x176 x853 that woman, 802 and shalt stone 5619 z8804 them with stones, 68 till they die. 4191 z8804

 17:6 At x5921 the mouth 6310 of two 8147 witnesses, 5707 or x176 three 7969 witnesses, 5707 shall he that is worthy of death 4191 z8714 be put to death; 4191 z8801 [but] at x5921 the mouth 6310 of one 259 witness 5707 he shall not x3808 be put to death. 4191 z8714

 17:7 The hands 3027 of the witnesses 5707 shall be x1961 first 7223 upon him to put him to death, 4191 z8687 and afterward 314 the hands 3027 of all x3605 the people. 5971 So thou shalt put y1197 z0 the evil y7451 away 1197 z8765 x7451 from among 7130 x4480 you.

 17:8 ¶ If x3588 there arise a matter y1697 too hard 6381 z8735 x1697 for x4480 thee in judgment, 4941 between x996 blood 1818 and blood, 1818 between x996 plea 1779 and plea, 1779 and between x996 stroke 5061 and stroke, 5061 [being] matters 1697 of controversy 7379 within thy gates: 8179 then shalt thou arise, 6965 z8804 and get thee up 5927 z8804 into x413 the place 4725 which x834 Yahweh 3068 thy Elohim 430 shall choose; 977 z8799

 17:9 And thou shalt come 935 z8804 unto x413 the priests 3548 the Levites, 3881 and unto x413 the judge 8199 z8802 that x834 shall be x1961 in those x1992 days, 3117 and enquire; 1875 z8804 and they shall shew 5046 z8689 thee x853 the sentence 1697 of judgment: 4941

 17:10 And thou shalt do 6213 z8804 according to x5921 x6310 the sentence, 1697 y6310 which x834 they of x4480 that x1931 place 4725 which x834 Yahweh 3068 shall choose 977 z8799 shall shew 5046 z8686 thee; and thou shalt observe 8104 z8804 to do 6213 z8800 according to all x3605 that x834 they inform 3384 z8686 thee:

 17:11 According to x5921 the sentence 6310 of the law 8451 which x834 they shall teach 3384 z8686 thee, and according to x5921 the judgment 4941 which x834 they shall tell 559 z8799 thee, thou shalt do: 6213 z8799 thou shalt not x3808 decline 5493 z8799 from x4480 the sentence 1697 which x834 they shall shew 5046 z8686 thee, [to] the right hand, 3225 nor [to] the left. 8040

 17:12 And the man 376 that x834 will do 6213 z8799 presumptuously, 2087 and will not x1115 hearken 8085 z8800 unto x413 the priest 3548 that standeth 5975 z8802 to minister 8334 z8763 there x8033 before x854 Yahweh 3068 thy Elohim, 430 or x176 unto x413 the judge, 8199 z8802 even that x1931 man 376 shall die: 4191 z8804 and thou shalt put away 1197 z8765 the evil 7451 from Israel. 3478 x4480

 17:13 And all x3605 the people 5971 shall hear, 8085 z8799 and fear, 3372 z8799 and do no x3808 more x5750 presumptuously. 2102 z8686

 17:14 ¶ When x3588 thou art come 935 z8799 unto x413 the land 776 which x834 Yahweh 3068 thy Elohim 430 giveth 5414 z8802 thee, and shalt possess 3423 z8804 it, and shalt dwell 3427 z8804 therein, and shalt say, 559 z8804 I will set 7760 z8799 a king 4428 over x5921 me, like as all x3605 the nations 1471 that x834 [are] about 5439 me;

 17:15 Thou shalt in any wise y7760 z8800 set 7760 z8799 [him] king 4428 over x5921 thee, whom x834 Yahweh 3068 thy Elohim 430 shall choose: 977 z8799 [one] from among 7130 x4480 thy brethren 251 shalt thou set 7760 z8799 king 4428 over x5921 thee: thou mayest 3201 z8799 not x3808 set 5414 z8800 a stranger 5237 376 over x5921 thee, which x834 [is] not x3808 thy brother. 251

 17:16 But x7535 he shall not x3808 multiply 7235 z8686 horses 5483 to himself, nor x3808 cause x853 the people 5971 to return 7725 z8686 to Egypt, 4714 to the end that x4616 he should multiply 7235 z8687 horses: 5483 forasmuch as Yahweh 3068 hath said 559 z8804 unto you, Ye shall henceforth 3254 z8686 return 7725 z8800 no x3808 more x5750 that x2088 way. 1870

 17:17 Neither x3808 shall he multiply 7235 z8686 wives 802 to himself, that his heart 3824 turn y5493 z8799 not away: x5493 x3808 neither x3808 shall he greatly 3966 multiply 7235 z8686 to himself silver 3701 and gold. 2091

 17:18 And it shall be, x1961 when he sitteth 3427 z8800 upon x5921 the throne 3678 of his kingdom, 4467 that he shall write 3789 z8804 him x853 a copy 4932 of this x2063 law 8451 in x5921 a book 5612 out of [that which is] before 6440 x4480 the priests 3548 the Levites: 3881

 17:19 And it shall be x1961 with x5973 him, and he shall read 7121 z8804 therein all x3605 the days 3117 of his life: 2416 that x4616 he may learn 3925 z8799 to fear 3372 z8800 x853 Yahweh 3068 his Elohim, 430 to keep 8104 z8800 x853 all x3605 the words 1697 of this x2063 law 8451 and these x428 statutes, 2706 to do 6213 z8800 them:

 17:20 That his heart 3824 be not x1115 lifted up 7311 z8800 above his brethren, 251 x4480 and that he turn not aside 5493 z8800 x1115 from x4480 the commandment, 4687 [to] the right hand, 3225 or [to] the left: 8040 to the end that x4616 he may prolong 748 z8686 [his] days 3117 in x5921 his kingdom, 4467 he, x1931 and his children, 1121 in the midst 7130 of Israel. 3478
