If he persists, saying, "I have no desire to marry her,"H2205H5892H7121H1696H5975H559H2654H3947 9then his brother's wife shall go up to him in the presence of the elders, pull his sandal off his foot, spit in his face, and declare, "This is what is done to the man who does not build up his brother's house."H2994H5066H5869H2205H2502H5275H7272H3417H6440H6030H559H6213H376H1129H251H1004 10Throughout Israel his family shall be known as "the house of him whose sandal was pulled off."H8034H7121H3478H1004H5275H2502 11If men get into a fight with one another, and the wife of one intervenes to rescue her husband from the grip of his opponent by reaching out and seizing his genitals,H582H5327H3162H251H376H802H259H7126H5337H376H3027H5221H7971H3027H2388H4016 12you shall cut off her hand; show no pity.H7112H3709H5869H2347 13You shall not have in your bag two kinds of weights, large and small.H3599H68H68H1419H6996 14You shall not have in your house two kinds of measures, large and small.H1004H374H374H1419H6996 15You shall have only a full and honest weight; you shall have only a full and honest measure, so that your days may be long in the land that the LORD your God is giving you.H8003H6664H68H8003H6664H374H3117H748H127H3068H430H5414 16For all who do such things, all who act dishonestly, are abhorrent to the LORD your God.H6213H428H6213H5766H8441H3068H430 17Remember what Amalek did to you on your journey out of Egypt,H2142H6002H6213H1870H3318H4714 18how he attacked you on the way, when you were faint and weary, and struck down all who lagged behind you; he did not fear God.H7136H1870H2179H2826H310H5889H3023H3373H430 19Therefore when the LORD your God has given you rest from all your enemies on every hand, in the land that the LORD your God is giving you as an inheritance to possess, you shall blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven; do not forget.H3068H430H5117H341H5439H776H3068H430H5414H5159H3423H4229H2143H6002H8064H7911
