13Thine eye shall not pity him, but thou shalt put away the innocent blood from Israel, that it may go well with thee.

14Thou shalt not remove thy neighbor`s landmark, which they of old time have set, in thine inheritance which thou shalt inherit, in the land that Jehovah thy God giveth thee to possess it.

15One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall a matter be established.

16If an unrighteous witness rise up against any man to testify against him of wrong-doing,

17then both the men, between whom the controversy is, shall stand before Jehovah, before the priests and the judges that shall be in those days;

18and the judges shall make diligent inquisition: and, behold, if the witness be a false witness, and have testified falsely against his brother;

19then shall ye do unto him, as he had thought to do unto his brother: so shalt thou put away the evil from the midst of thee.
