16. You shall not go about spreading slander among your people; nor shall you stand by idly when your neighbor’s life is at stake. I am the Lord.
17. You shall not hate any of your kindred in your heart. Reprove your neighbor openly so that you do not incur sin because of that person.
18. Take no revenge and cherish no grudge against your own people. You shall love your neighbor as yourself. I am the Lord.
19. Keep my statutes: do not breed any of your domestic animals with others of a different species; do not sow a field of yours with two different kinds of seed; and do not put on a garment woven with two different kinds of thread.
20. If a man has sexual relations with a female slave who has been acquired by another man but has not yet been redeemed or given her freedom, an investigation shall be made. They shall not be put to death, because she has not been freed.
21. The man shall bring to the entrance of the tent of meeting as his reparation to the Lord a ram as a reparation offering.
22. With the ram of the reparation offering the priest shall make atonement before the Lord for the wrong the man has committed, so that he will be forgiven for the wrong he has committed.
23. When you come into the land and plant any fruit tree there, first look upon its fruit as if it were uncircumcised. For three years, it shall be uncircumcised for you; it may not be eaten.
24. In the fourth year, however, all of its fruit shall be dedicated to the Lord in joyous celebration.
25. Not until the fifth year may you eat its fruit, to increase the yield for you. I, the Lord, am your God.
26. Do not eat anything with the blood still in it. Do not recite charms or practice soothsaying.
27. Do not clip your hair at the temples, nor spoil the edges of your beard.
28. Do not lacerate your bodies for the dead, and do not tattoo yourselves. I am the Lord.
29. You shall not degrade your daughter by making a prostitute of her; otherwise the land will prostitute itself and become full of lewdness.
30. Keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary. I am the Lord.
31. Do not turn to ghosts or consult spirits, by which you will be defiled. I, the Lord, am your God.
32. Stand up in the presence of the aged, show respect for the old, and fear your God. I am the Lord.
33. When an alien resides with you in your land, do not mistreat such a one.
34. You shall treat the alien who resides with you no differently than the natives born among you; you shall love the alien as yourself; for you too were once aliens in the land of Egypt. I, the Lord, am your God.
35. Do not act dishonestly in using measures of length or weight or capacity.
36. You shall have a true scale and true weights, an honest ephah and an honest hin. I, the Lord, am your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt.
