Deuteronomy 19:16

Revised Version with Apocrypha 1895

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

See the chapter Copy

Deliver me not over unto the will of mine adversaries: For false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty.

Unrighteous witnesses rise up; They ask me of things that I know not.

A faithful witness will not lie: But a false witness uttereth lies.

A false witness shall not be unpunished; And he that uttereth lies shall not escape.

and set up false witnesses, which said, This man ceaseth not to speak words against this holy place, and the law:

Neither shalt thou bear false witness against thy neighbour.
