King James Version Help
17Thou shalt not sacrifice unto the LORD thy God any bullock, or sheep, wherein is blemish, or any evilfavouredness: for that is an abomination unto the LORD thy God.H2076H3068H430H7794H7716H3971H7451H1697H8441H3068H430 2If there be found among you, within any of thy gates which the LORD thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that hath wrought wickedness in the sight of the LORD thy God, in transgressing his covenant,H4672H7130H259H8179H3068H430H5414H376H802H6213H7451H5869H3068H430H5674H1285 3And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded;H3212H5647H312H430H7812H8121H3394H6635H8064H6680 4And it be told thee, and thou hast heard of it, and enquired diligently, and, behold, it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in Israel:H5046H8085H1875H3190H571H1697H3559H8441H6213H3478 5Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman, which have committed that wicked thing, unto thy gates, even that man or that woman, and shalt stone them with stones, till they die.H3318H376H802H6213H7451H1697H8179H376H802H5619H68H4191 6At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of death be put to death; but at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.H6310H8147H5707H7969H5707H4191H4191H6310H259H5707H4191 7The hands of the witnesses shall be first upon him to put him to death, and afterward the hands of all the people. So thou shalt put the evil away from among you.H3027H5707H7223H4191H314H3027H5971H1197H7451H1197H7130 8If there arise a matter too hard for thee in judgment, between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being matters of controversy within thy gates: then shalt thou arise, and get thee up into the place which the LORD thy God shall choose;H1697H6381H4941H1818H1818H1779H1779H5061H5061H1697H7379H8179H6965H5927H4725H3068H430H977 9And thou shalt come unto the priests the Levites, and unto the judge that shall be in those days, and enquire; and they shall shew thee the sentence of judgment:H935H3548H3881H8199H3117H1875H5046H1697H4941 10And thou shalt do according to the sentence, which they of that place which the LORD shall choose shall shew thee; and thou shalt observe to do according to all that they inform thee:H6213H6310H1697H4725H3068H977H5046H8104H6213H3384 11According to the sentence of the law which they shall teach thee, and according to the judgment which they shall tell thee, thou shalt do: thou shalt not decline from the sentence which they shall shew thee, to the right hand, nor to the left.H6310H8451H3384H4941H559H6213H5493H1697H5046H3225H8040 12And the man that will do presumptuously, and will not hearken unto the priest that standeth to minister there before the LORD thy God, or unto the judge, even that man shall die: and thou shalt put away the evil from Israel.H376H6213H2087H8085H3548H5975H8334H3068H430H8199H376H4191H1197H7451H3478 13And all the people shall hear, and fear, and do no more presumptuously.H5971H8085H3372H2102 14When thou art come unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, and shalt possess it, and shalt dwell therein, and shalt say, I will set a king over me, like as all the nations that are about me;H935H776H3068H430H5414H3423H3427H559H7760H4428H1471H5439 15Thou shalt in any wise set him king over thee, whom the LORD thy God shall choose: one from among thy brethren shalt thou set king over thee: thou mayest not set a stranger over thee, which is not thy brother.H7760H7760H4428H3068H430H977H7130H251H7760H4428H3201H5414H5237H376H251 16But he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses: forasmuch as the LORD hath said unto you, Ye shall henceforth return no more that way.H7235H5483H5971H7725H4714H7235H5483H3068H559H3254H7725H1870 17Neither shall he multiply wives to himself, that his heart turn not away: neither shall he greatly multiply to himself silver and gold.H7235H802H3824H5493H3966H7235H3701H2091 18And it shall be, when he sitteth upon the throne of his kingdom, that he shall write him a copy of this law in a book out of that which is before the priests the Levites:H3427H3678H4467H3789H4932H8451H5612H6440H3548H3881 19And it shall be with him, and he shall read therein all the days of his life: that he may learn to fear the LORD his God, to keep all the words of this law and these statutes, to do them:H7121H3117H2416H3925H3372H3068H430H8104H1697H8451H2706H6213 20That his heart be not lifted up above his brethren, and that he turn not aside from the commandment, to the right hand, or to the left: to the end that he may prolong his days in his kingdom, he, and his children, in the midst of Israel.H3824H7311H251H5493H4687H3225H8040H748H3117H4467H1121H7130H3478
