7 If he has not aoppressed anyone,
But has restored to the debtor his bpledge;
Has robbed no one by violence,
But has cgiven his bread to the hungry
And covered the naked with dclothing;
But has restored to the debtor his bpledge;
Has robbed no one by violence,
But has cgiven his bread to the hungry
And covered the naked with dclothing;
8 If he has not1 exacted ausury
Nor taken any increase,
But has withdrawn his hand from iniquity
And bexecuted true judgment between man and man;
Nor taken any increase,
But has withdrawn his hand from iniquity
And bexecuted true judgment between man and man;
9 If he has walked in My statutes
And kept My judgments faithfully—
He is just;
He shall surely alive!”
Says the Lord God.
And kept My judgments faithfully—
He is just;
He shall surely alive!”
Says the Lord God.
12 If he has oppressed the poor and needy,
Robbed by violence,
Not restored the pledge,
Lifted his eyes to the idols,
Or acommitted abomination;
Robbed by violence,
Not restored the pledge,
Lifted his eyes to the idols,
Or acommitted abomination;
13 If he has exacted usury
Or taken increase—
Shall he then live?
He shall not live!
If he has done any of these abominations,
He shall surely die;
aHis blood shall be upon him.
Or taken increase—
Shall he then live?
He shall not live!
If he has done any of these abominations,
He shall surely die;
aHis blood shall be upon him.
14 “If, however, he begets a son
Who sees all the sins which his father has done,
And considers but does not do likewise;
Who sees all the sins which his father has done,
And considers but does not do likewise;
15 aWho has not eaten1 on the mountains,
Nor lifted his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel,
Nor defiled his neighbor’s wife;
Nor lifted his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel,
Nor defiled his neighbor’s wife;
