An oath of Jehovah shall be between them both if he put not forth his hand to his friend's goods; and its lord shall take and he shall not recompense.
If a man shall give to his friend an ass or ox or sheep or all cattle to watch; and it died, or being broken or being taken captive, not being seen:
And if stealing, it shall be stolen from him, he shall recompense to his lord.
If the thief shall not be found, and the lord of the house being brought to God, if he put not forth his hand upon his friend's goods.
Thou shalt not take up a false report: thou shalt not put thy hand with the unjust one to be a witness of wrong.
Lest I shall be filled and I spake lies, and said, Who is Jehovah? and lest I shall be dispossessed and I stole, and I laid hold upon the name of God.
I am to watch the king's mouth by reason of the oath of God.
And when a soul shall sin, and he heard the voice of an oath, and he a witness, if he saw or knew; if he shall not announce, he bore his sin.
Or he found the lost thing, and lied concerning it, and swore upon falsehood; upon one of all which the man will do, for sinning in them.
For truly men swear by the greater: and the oath for confirmation to them the end of all controversy.
