13 (A)You shall not have in your bag [a]differing weights, a large and a small. 14 You shall not have in your house [b]differing measures, a large and a small. 15 You shall have a correct and honest [c]weight; you shall have a correct and honest [d]measure, (B)so that your days may be prolonged [e]in the land which the Lord your God is giving you. 16 For (C)everyone who does these things, everyone who acts unjustly is an abomination to the Lord your God.

17 (D)Remember what Amalek did to you on the way when you came out of Egypt, 18 how he confronted you on the way and attacked among you all the stragglers at your rear when you were tired and weary; and he (E)did not [f]fear God. 19 So it shall come about, when the Lord your God has given you (F)rest from all your surrounding enemies in the land which the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance to [g]possess, that you shall wipe out the mention of the name Amalek from under heaven; you must not forget.
