Deuteronomy 13

 1"If a prophet or(A) a dreamer of dreams arises among you and gives you a sign or a wonder, 2and(B) the sign or wonder that he tells you comes to pass, and if he says, 'Let us go after other gods,' which you have not known, 'and let us serve them,' 3you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams. For the LORD your God(C) is testing you, to know whether you love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul. 4You shall(D) walk after the LORD your God and fear him and keep his commandments and obey his voice, and you shall serve him and(E) hold fast to him. 5But(F) that prophet or that dreamer of dreams shall be put to death, because he has taught rebellion against the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt and redeemed you out of the house of slavery, to make you leave the way in which the LORD your God commanded you to walk.(G) So you shall purge the evil[a] from your midst.

 6(H) "If your brother, the son of your mother, or your son or your daughter or(I) the wife you embrace[b] or your friend(J) who is as your own soul entices you secretly, saying, 'Let us go and serve other gods,'(K) which neither you nor your fathers have known, 7some(L) of the gods of the peoples who are around you, whether near you or far off from you, from the one end of the earth to the other, 8you shall(M) not yield to him or listen to him, nor(N) shall your eye pity him, nor shall you spare him, nor shall you conceal him. 9But you shall kill him.(O) Your hand shall be first against him to put him to death, and afterward the hand of all the people. 10(P) You shall stone him to death with stones, because he sought to draw you away from the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. 11And(Q) all Israel shall hear and fear and never again do any such wickedness as this among you.

 12"If you hear in one of your cities, which the LORD your God is giving you to dwell there, 13that certain(R) worthless fellows have gone out among you and have drawn away the inhabitants of their city, saying, 'Let us go and serve other gods,' which you have not known, 14then you shall inquire and make search and ask(S) diligently. And behold, if it be true and certain that such an abomination has been done among you, 15you shall surely put the inhabitants of that city to the sword, devoting it to destruction,[c] all who are in it and its cattle, with the edge of the sword. 16You shall gather all its spoil into the midst of its open square and(T) burn the city and all its spoil with fire, as a whole burnt offering to the LORD your God. It shall be a(U) heap forever. It shall not be built again. 17(V) None of the devoted things shall stick to your hand,(W) that the LORD may turn from the fierceness of his anger and show you mercy and have compassion on you and multiply you,(X) as he swore to your fathers, 18if you obey the voice of the LORD your God,(Y) keeping all his commandments that I am commanding you today, and doing what is right in the sight of the LORD your God.

Deuteronomy 14

Clean and Unclean Food
 1"You are(Z) the sons of the LORD your God.(AA) You shall not cut yourselves or make any(AB) baldness on your foreheads for the dead. 2For(AC) you are a people holy to the LORD your God, and the LORD has chosen you to be a people for his treasured possession, out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.

 3(AD) "You shall not eat any abomination. 4(AE) These are the animals you may eat: the ox, the sheep, the goat, 5the deer, the gazelle, the roebuck, the wild goat, the ibex,[d] the antelope, and the mountain sheep. 6Every animal that parts the hoof and has the hoof cloven in two and chews the cud, among the animals, you may eat. 7Yet of those that chew the cud or have the hoof cloven you shall not eat these: the camel, the hare, and the(AF) rock badger, because they chew the cud but do not part the hoof, are unclean for you. 8And the pig, because it parts the hoof but does not chew the cud, is unclean for you. Their flesh you shall not eat, and(AG) their carcasses you shall not touch.

 9"Of all that are in the waters you may eat these: whatever has fins and scales you may eat. 10And whatever does not have fins and scales you shall not eat; it is unclean for you.

 11"You may eat all clean birds. 12But these are the ones that you shall not eat: the eagle,[e] the bearded vulture, the black vulture, 13the kite, the falcon of any kind; 14every raven of any kind; 15the ostrich, the nighthawk, the sea gull, the hawk of any kind; 16the little owl and the short-eared owl, the barn owl 17and the tawny owl, the carrion vulture and the cormorant, 18the stork, the heron of any kind; the hoopoe and the bat. 19And all winged insects are unclean for you; they shall not be eaten. 20All clean winged things you may eat.

 21(AH) "You shall not eat anything that has died naturally. You may give it to the sojourner who is within your towns, that he may eat it, or you may sell it to a foreigner. For(AI) you are a people holy to the LORD your God.

   

   (AJ) "You shall not boil a young goat in its mother’s milk.

Tithes
 22(AK) "You shall tithe all the yield of your seed that comes from the field year by year. 23And before the LORD your God, in the place that he will choose, to make his name dwell there,(AL) you shall eat the tithe of your grain, of your wine, and of your oil,(AM) and the firstborn of your herd and flock,(AN) that you may learn to fear the LORD your God always. 24And if the way is too long for you, so that you are not able to carry the tithe, when the LORD your God blesses you, because(AO) the place is too far from you, which the LORD your God chooses, to set his name there, 25then you shall turn it into money and bind up the money in your hand and go to the place that the LORD your God chooses 26and spend the money for whatever you desire—oxen or sheep or wine or strong drink, whatever your appetite craves. And(AP) you shall eat there before the LORD your God and rejoice, you and your household. 27And you shall not neglect(AQ) the Levite who is within your towns, for(AR) he has no portion or inheritance with you.

 28(AS) "At the end of every three years you shall bring out all the tithe of your produce in the same year and lay it up within your towns. 29And the Levite, because(AT) he has no portion or inheritance with you, and the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, who are within your towns, shall come and eat and be filled, that(AU) the LORD your God may bless you in all the work of your hands that you do.

Deuteronomy 15

The Sabbatical Year
 1"At the end of(AV) every seven years you shall grant a release. 2And this is the manner of the release: every creditor shall release what he has lent to his neighbor. He shall not exact it of his neighbor, his brother, because the LORD’s release has been proclaimed. 3(AW) Of a foreigner you may exact it, but whatever of yours is with your brother your hand shall release. 4(AX) But there will be no poor among you;(AY) for the LORD will bless you in the land that the LORD your God is giving you for an inheritance to possess— 5(AZ) if only you will strictly obey the voice of the LORD your God, being careful to do all this commandment that I command you today. 6For the LORD your God will bless you,(BA) as he promised you, and(BB) you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow, and(BC) you shall rule over many nations, but they shall not rule over you.

 7"If among you, one of your brothers should become poor, in any of your towns within your land that the LORD your God is giving you,(BD) you shall not harden your heart or shut your hand against your poor brother, 8but(BE) you shall open your hand to him and lend him sufficient for his need, whatever it may be. 9Take care lest there be an unworthy thought in your heart and you say, 'The seventh year, the year of release is near,' and your(BF) eye look grudgingly[f] on your poor brother, and you give him nothing, and he(BG) cry to the LORD against you, and(BH) you be guilty of sin. 10You shall give to him freely, and(BI) your heart shall not be grudging when you give to him, because(BJ) for this the LORD your God will bless you in all your work and in all that you undertake. 11For(BK) there will never cease to be poor in the land. Therefore I command you,(BL) 'You shall open wide your hand to your brother, to the needy and to the poor, in your land.'

 12(BM) "If your brother, a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman, is sold[g] to you, he shall serve you six years, and in the seventh year you shall let him go free from you. 13And when you let him go free from you, you shall not let him go empty-handed. 14You shall furnish him liberally out of your flock, out of your threshing floor, and out of your winepress.(BN) As the LORD your God has blessed you, you shall give to him. 15(BO) You shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the LORD your God redeemed you; therefore I command you this today. 16But(BP) if he says to you, 'I will not go out from you,' because he loves you and your household, since he is well-off with you, 17then you shall take an awl, and put it through his ear into the door, and he shall be your slave forever. And to your female slave you shall do the same. 18It shall not seem hard to you when you let him go free from you, for at half the cost of a hired servant he has served you six years. So the LORD your God will bless you in all that you do.

 19(BQ) "All the firstborn males that are born of your herd and flock you shall dedicate to the LORD your God. You shall do no work with the firstborn of your herd, nor shear the firstborn of your flock. 20(BR) You shall eat it, you and your household, before the LORD your God year by year at the place that the LORD will choose. 21(BS) But if it has any blemish, if it is lame or blind or has any serious blemish whatever, you shall not sacrifice it to the LORD your God. 22You shall eat it within your towns.(BT) The unclean and the clean alike may eat it, as though it were a gazelle or a deer. 23(BU) Only you shall not eat its blood; you shall pour it out on the ground like water.

The Great Commandment
 28(A) And one of the scribes came up and heard them disputing with one another, and seeing that he answered them well, asked him, "Which commandment is the most important of all?" 29Jesus answered, "The most important is,(B) 'Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God,(C) the Lord is one. 30And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' 31(D) The second is this:(E) 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment(F) greater than these." 32And the scribe said to him, "You are right, Teacher. You have truly said that(G) he is one, and(H) there is no other besides him. 33And to love him with all the heart and with all(I) the understanding and with all the strength, and to love one’s neighbor as oneself,(J) is much more than all(K) whole burnt offerings and sacrifices." 34And when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God."(L) And after that no one dared to ask him any more questions.
Whose Son Is the Christ?
 35(M) And as(N) Jesus taught in the temple, he said, "How can the scribes say that(O) the Christ is the son of David? 36David himself,(P) in the Holy Spirit, declared,

   (Q) "'The Lord said to my Lord,Sit at my right hand,
   until I put your enemies(R) under your feet.'

 37David himself calls him Lord. So(S) how is he his son?" And the great throng(T) heard him gladly.

Beware of the Scribes
 38(U) And in his teaching he said, "Beware of the scribes, who like to walk around in long robes and like greetings in the marketplaces 39and have the best seats in the synagogues and(V) the places of honor at feasts, 40(W) who devour widows’ houses and(X) for a pretense make long prayers. They will receive the greater condemnation."
The Widow’s Offering
 41(Y) And he sat down opposite(Z) the treasury and watched the people(AA) putting money into the offering box. Many rich people put in large sums. 42And a poor widow came and put in two(AB) small copper coins, which make a penny.[a] 43And he called his disciples to him and said to them, "Truly, I say to you,(AC) this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the offering box. 44For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her(AD) poverty has put in everything she had, all(AE) she had to live on."
