23:1	Οὐ παραδέξῃ ἀκοὴν ματαίαν· οὐ συνκαταθήσῃ μετὰ τοῦ ἀδίκου γενέσθαι μάρτυς ἄδικος.
23:2	οὐκ ἔσῃ μετὰ πλειόνων ἐν κακίᾳ· οὐ προσθήσῃ μετὰ πλήθους ἐκκλῖναι μετὰ πλειόνων, ὥστε ἐκκλεῖσαι κρίσιν.
23:3	καὶ πένητα οὐκ ἐλεήσεις ἐν κρίσει.
23:4	Ἐὰν δὲ συναντήσῃς τῷ βοὶ τοῦ ἐχθροῦ σου ἢ τῷ ὑποζυγίῳ αὐτοῦ πλανωμένοις, ἀποστρέψας ἀποδώσεις αὐτῷ.
23:5	ἐὰν δὲ ἴδῃς τὸ ὑποζύγιον τοῦ ἐχθροῦ σου πεπτωκὸς ὑπὸ τὸν γόμον αὖ· τοῦ, οὐ παρελεύσῃ αὐτό, ἁλλὰ συναρεῖς αὐτὸ μετ’ αὐτοῦ.
23:6	Οὐ διαστρέψεις κρίμα πένητος ἐν κρίσει αὐτοῦ.
23:7	ἀπὸ παντὸς ῥήματος ἀδίκου ἀποστήσῃ. ἀθῷον καὶ δίκαιον οὐκ ἀποκτενεῖς, καὶ οὐ δικαιώσεις τὸν ἀσεβῆ ἕνεκεν δώρων.
23:8	καὶ δῶρα οὐ λήμψῃ· τὰ γὰρ δῶρα ἐκτυφλοῖ ὀφθαλμοὺς βλεπόντων καὶ λυμαίνεται ῥήματα δίκαια.
23:9	καὶ προσήλυτον οὐ θλίψετε· ὑμεῖς γὰρ οἴδατε τὴν ψυχὴν τοῦ προσηλύτου· αὐτοὶ γὰρ προσήλυτοι ἦτε ἐν γῇ Αἰγύπτῳ.
23:10	Ἔξ ἔτη σπερεῖς τὴν γῆν σου καὶ συνάξεις τὰ γενήματα αὐτῆς·
23:11	τῷ δὲ ἑβδόμῳ ἄφεσιν ποιήσεις καὶ ἀνήσεις αὐτήν, καὶ ἔδονται οἱ πτωχοὶ τοῦ ἔθνους σου· τὰ δὲ ὑπολειπόμενα ἔδεται τὰ ἄγρια θηρία. οὕτως ποιήσεις τὸν ἀμπελῶνά σου καὶ τὸν ἐλαιῶνά σου.
23:12	ἕξ ἡμέρας ποιήσεις τὰ ἔργα σου, τῇ δὲ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ἑβδόμη ἀνάπαυσις· ἵνα ἀναπαύσηται ὁ βοῦς σου καὶ τὸ ὑποζύγιόν σου, καὶ ἵνα ἀναπαύσηται ὁ υἱὸς τῆς παιδίσκης σου καὶ ὁ προσήλυτος.
23:13	πάντα ὅσα εἴρηκα πρὸς ὑμᾶς φυλάξασθε· καὶ ὄνομα θεῶν ἑτέρων οὐκ ἀναμνησθήσεσθε, οὐδὲ μὴ ἀκουσθῇ ἐκ τοῦ στόματος ὑμῶν.
23:14	Τρεῖς καιροὺς τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ ἑορτάσατέ μοι.
23:15	τὴν ἑορτὴν τῶν ἀζύμων φυλάξασθε ποιεῖν· ἑπτὰ ἡμέρας ἔδεσθε καθάπερ ἐνετειλάμην σοι, κατὰ τὸν καιρὸν τοῦ μηνὸς τῶν ἐν γὰρ αὐτῷ ἐξῆλθες ἐξ Αἰγύπτου. οὐκ ὀφθήσῃ ἐνώπιόν μου κενός.
23:16	καὶ ἑορτὴν θερισμοῦ πρωτογενημάτων ποιήσεις τῶν ἔργων σου ὧν ἐὰν σπείρῃς ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ σου, καὶ ἑορτὴν συντελείας ἐπ’ ἐξόδου τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ ἐν τῇ συναγωγῇ τῶν ἔργων σου τῶν ἐκ τοῦ ἀγροῦ σου.
23:17	υτρῖς καιροὺς τοῦ ἐνιαυτοῦ ὀφθήσεται πᾶν ἀρσενικόν σου ἐνώπιον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου.
23:18	Ὄταν γὰρ ἐκβάλω ἔθνη ἀπὸ προσώπου σου καὶ ἐμπλατύνω τὰ ὅριά σου, οὐ θύσεις ἐπὶ ζύμῃ αἷμα θυμιάματός μου, οὐδὲ μὴ κοιμηθῇ στέαρ τῆς ἑορτῆς μου ἕως πρωί.
23:19	τὰς ἀπαρχὰς τῶν πρωτογενημάτων σου εἰσοίσεις εἰς τὸν οἶκον κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ σου. οὐχ ἑψήσεις ἄρνα ἐν γάλακτι μητρὸς αὐτοῦ.
23:20	Καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἀποστέλλω τὸν ἄλλελόν μου πρὸ προσώπου σου ἵνα φυλάξῃ σε ἐν τῆ ὁδῷ, ὅπως εἰσαγάγῃ σε εἰς τὴν γῆν ἢν ἡτοίμασά σοι.
23:21	πρόσεχε σεαυτῷ καὶ εἰσάκουε αὐτοῦ καὶ μὴ ἀπείθει αὐτῷ, οὐ γὰρ μὴ ὑποστείληταί σε· τὸ γὰρ ὄνομά μού ἐστιν ἐπ’ αὐτῷ.
23:22	ἐὰν ἀκοῇ ἀκούσητε τῆς ἐμῆς φωνῆς, καὶ ποιήσῃς πάντα ὅσα ἄν ἑ λωμαί σοι, καὶ φυλάξητε τὴν διαθήκην μου, ἔσεσθέ μοι λαὸς ούσιος ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν ἐθνῶν· ἐμὴ γάρ ἐστιν πᾶσα ἡ γῆ, ὑμεῖς δὲ ἔσεσθέ μοι βασίλειον ἱεράτευμα καὶ ἔθνος ἅγιον. ταῦτα τὰ ῥήματα ἐρεῖς τοῖς υἱοῖς Ἰσραήλ Ἐὰν ἀκοῇ ἀκούσητε τῆς φωνῆς μου, καὶ ποιήσητε πάντα ὅσα ἄν εἴπω σοι, ἐχθρεύσω τοῖς ἐχθροῖς σου καὶ ἀντικείσομαι τοῖς ἀντικειμένοις σοι.
23:23	πορεύσεται γὰρ ὁ ἅγγελός μου ἡγούμενος ὑμῶν, καὶ εἰσάξει σε πρὸς τὸν Ἀμορραῖον καὶ Χετταῖον καὶ καὶ Χαναναῖον καὶ Γεργεσαῖον καὶ Εὑαῖον καὶ ἰεβουσαῖον, καὶ ἑ αὐτούς.
23:24	οὐ προσκυνήσεις τοῖς θεοῖς αὐτῶν, οὐδὲ μὴ λατρεύσῃς αὐτοῖς· οὐ ποιήσεις κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν, ἀλλὰ καθαιρέσει καθελεῖς καὶ συντρίβων συντρίψεις τὰς στήλας αὐτῶν.
23:25	καὶ λατρεύσεις Κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ σου, καὶ εὐλογήσω τὸν ἄρτον σου καὶ τὸν οἶνόν σευ καὶ τὸ ὕδωρ σου, καὶ ἀποστρέψω μαλακίαν ἀφ’ ὑμῶν.
23:26	οὐκ ἔσται ἄγονος οὐδὲ στεῖρα ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς σου· τὸν ἀριθμὸν τῶν ἡμερῶν σου ἀναπληρώσω.
23:27	καὶ τὸν φόβον ἀποστελῶ ἡγούμενόν σου, καὶ ἐκστήσω πάντα τὰ ἔθνη εἰς οὓς σὺ εἰσπορεύῃ εἰς αὐτούς, καὶ δώσω πάντας τοὺς ὑπεναντίους σου φυγάδας.
23:28	καὶ ἀποστελῶ τὰς σΦηκίας προτέρας σου, καὶ ἐκβαλεῖς τοὺς Ἀμορραίους καὶ Εὑαίους καὶ χαναναίους καὶ τοὺς Χετταίους ἀπὸ σοῦ.
23:29	οὐκ ἐκβαλῶ αὐτοὺς ἐν ἐνιαυτῷ ἑνί, ἵνα μὴ γένηται ἢ γῆ ἔρημος καὶ πολλὰ γένηται ἐπὶ σὲ τὰ θηρία τῆς γῆς·
23:30	κατὰ μικρὸν ἐκβαλῶ αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ σοῦ, ἕως ἄν καὶ κληρονομήσῃς τὴν γῆν.
23:31	καὶ θήσω τὰ ὅριά σου ἀπὸ τῆς ἐρυθρᾶς θαλάσσης ἕως τῆς θαλάσσης τῆς Φυλιστιείμ, καὶ ἀπὸ τῆς ἐρήμου ἕως τοῦ μεγάλου ποταμοῦ Εὐφράτου· καὶ παραδώσω εἰς τὰς χεῖρας ὑμῶν τοὺς ἐνκαθημένους ἐν τῇ γῆ, καὶ ἐκβαλῶ αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ σοῦ.
23:32	οὐ σὺν καταθήσῃ αὐτοῖς καὶ τοῖς θεοῖς αὐτῶν διαθήκην·
23:33	καὶ οὐκ ἐν καθήσονται ἐν τῇ γῇ σου, ἵνα μὴ ἁμαρτεῖν σε ποιήσωσιν πρὸς μέ· ἐὰν γὰρ δουλεύσῃς τοῖς θεοῖς αὐτῶν, οὗτοι ἔσονταί σοι πρόσκομμα.

What the layers are

L0 witness
The text as its witness or edition has it, original spelling; its dialect is a description and is never standardized.

L0.5 transliteration
For Egyptian texts: the transliteration with the editors' marks turned into the symbols ° * < > _ ^ (ruled 2026-09-10). For papyri: the edition's Leiden marks as the same symbols, and the editors' readings beside the scribe's as ‹scribe→editors› (ruled PAP-3).

L1 Cairene
Standardized Greco-Bohairic spelling and grammar, generated by code from the layer above under the rulings of the project.

L2 Kemetic
The Kemetic alphabet, generated by code from L1.

English
Quoted translations where they exist, credited; otherwise model drafts, marked as drafts.
