New English Translation

Dealing Honestly

11 “‘You must not steal, you must not tell lies, and you must not deal falsely with your fellow citizen.[a] 12 You must not swear falsely[b] in my name, so that you do not profane[c] the name of your God. I am the Lord. 13 You must not oppress your neighbor or commit robbery against your neighbor.[d] You must not withhold[e] the wages of the hired laborer overnight until morning. 14 You must not curse a deaf person or put a stumbling block in front of a blind person.[f] You must fear[g] your God; I am the Lord.
