Leviticus 19:9-21 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

9. “When you reap the harvest of your land, you are not to reap to the very corners of your field, nor are you to gather the gleanings of your harvest.

10. You are not to pick the remnants of your vineyard, nor are you to gather the fallen grapes of your vineyard. Instead, you are to leave them for the poor and for the outsider. I am Adonai your God.

11. “You are not to steal. You are not to lie. You are not to deceive one another.

12. “You are not to swear by My Name falsely, and so profane the Name of your God. I am Adonai.

13. “You are not to oppress your neighbor, nor rob him. The wages of a hired servant are not to remain with you all night until the morning.

14. “You are not to curse the deaf, nor put a stumbling block before the blind, but you shall fear your God. I am Adonai.

15. “You are to do no injustice in judgment. You are not to be partial toward the poor nor show favoritism toward the great, but you are to judge your neighbor with fairness.

16. “You are not to go up and down as a talebearer among your people. You are not to endanger the life of your neighbor. I am Adonai.

17. “You are not to hate your brother in your heart. Instead, you are to firmly rebuke your neighbor, and not bear sin because of him.

18. You are not to take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am Adonai.

19. “You must keep My statutes. You are not to crossbreed different kinds of animals. You are not to sow your field with two kinds of seed, nor are you to wear a garment woven of two kinds of material.

20. “If a man lies sexually with a woman who is a slave girl, pledged to be married to another man, but not ransomed or given her freedom, they are both to be punished. But they are not to be put to death, because she was not free.

21. He is to bring his trespass ­offering to Adonai, to the entrance of the Tent of Meeting—a ram for a guilt offering.
