Christian Standard Bible
30 Keep my Sabbaths and revere my sanctuary;(A) I am the Lord.
31 “Do not turn to mediums[a](B) or consult spiritists,[b](C) or you will be defiled by them; I am the Lord your God.
32 “You are to rise in the presence of the elderly and honor the old.(D) Fear your God; I am the Lord.

35 “Do not be unfair(H) in measurements of length, weight, or volume. 36 You are to have honest balances,(I) honest weights, an honest dry measure,[c] and an honest liquid measure;[d](J) I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt. 37 Keep all my statutes and all my ordinances and do them; I am the Lord.”
