came forth out of Egypt; and because they hired against thee Balaam the son
of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia,  to curse  thee. Deuteronomy 23:5
5 Nevertheless the LORD thy God would not hearken unto Balaam; but the LORD
thy God turned the curse into a blessing unto thee, because the LORD thy

water: and when the sun is down, he shall come into the camp again.

wilt ease thyself abroad, thou shalt dig therewith, and shalt turn back and
cover that which cometh from thee:
Deuteronomy 23:14

and to give up thine enemies before thee; therefore shall thy camp be holy:
that he see no unclean  thing  in thee, and turn away  from thee.

freewill offering, according as thou hast vowed unto the LORD thy God,
which thou hast promised with thy mouth.

grapes thy fill at thine own pleasure; but thou shalt not put any in thy
vessel.

Deuteronomy 24:1
1 When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that
she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in
her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement,  and give  it in her
hand,  and send  her out of his house. Deuteronomy 24:2

3 And if the latter husband hate her, and write her a bill of divorcement,
and giveth it in her hand, and sendeth her out of his house; or if the
latter husband die,  which took  her to be his wife; Deuteronomy 24:4
4 Her former husband, which sent her away, may not take her again to be his

thee for an inheritance.

12 And if the man be poor, thou shalt not sleep with his pledge: Deuteronomy 24:13
13 In any case thou shalt deliver him the pledge again when the sun goeth
down, that he may sleep in his own raiment, and bless thee: and it shall be
righteousness unto thee before the LORD thy God. Deuteronomy 24:14
14 Thou shalt not oppress an hired servant that is poor and needy, whether
he be of thy brethren, or of thy strangers that are in thy land within thy
gates:
Deuteronomy 24:15
15 At his day thou shalt give him his hire, neither shall the sun go down
upon it; for he is poor, and setteth his heart upon it: lest he cry against
thee unto the LORD, and it be sin unto thee. Deuteronomy 24:16

sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for
the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that the LORD thy God

condemn the wicked.

shall cause him to lie down, and to be beaten before his face, according to

the duty of an husband's brother  unto her. Deuteronomy 25:6

brother's wife go up to the gate unto the elders, and say, My husband's
brother refuseth to raise up unto his brother  a name  in Israel,  he will 
not perform the duty of my husband's brother. Deuteronomy 25:8
8 Then the elders of his city shall call him, and speak unto him: and if he
stand to it, and say, I like not to take her; Deuteronomy 25:9
9 Then shall his brother's wife come unto him in the presence of the
elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and spit in his face, and
shall answer and say, So shall it be done unto that man  that will not
build up  his brother's  house.

shoe loosed.

12 Then thou shalt cut off her hand, thine eye shall not pity her. Deuteronomy 25:13
13 Thou shalt not have in thy bag divers weights, a great and a small.
Deuteronomy 25:14

measure shalt thou have: that thy days may be lengthened in the land which
the LORD thy God giveth thee.

abomination unto the LORD thy God.
Deuteronomy 25:17

that were feeble behind thee, when thou wast faint and weary; and he feared
not God.
Deuteronomy 25:19

all thine enemies round about, in the land which the LORD thy God giveth
thee for an inheritance to possess it, that thou shalt blot out the
remembrance  of Amalek  from under heaven;  thou shalt not forget  it.
