¹⁶ Six things are hated by the Lord; seven things are disgusting to him:

²¹ For three things the earth is moved, and there are four which it will not put up with:

¹⁰ Let there not be seen among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter go through the fire, or anyone using secret arts, or a maker of strange sounds, or a reader of signs, or any wonder-worker,

¹¹ Or anyone using secret force on people, or putting questions to a spirit, or having secret knowledge, or going to the dead for directions.

¹² For all who do such things are disgusting to the Lord; and because of these disgusting things the Lord your God is driving them out before you.

¹⁶ For all who do such things, and all whose ways are not upright, are disgusting to the Lord your God.

⁵ The Lord puts the upright and the sinner to the test, but he has hate in his soul for the lover of violent acts.

³² For the wrong-hearted man is hated by the Lord, but he is a friend to the upright.

¹³ The fear of the Lord is seen in hating evil: pride, a high opinion of oneself, the evil way, and the false tongue, are unpleasing to me.

¹ Scales of deceit are hated by the Lord, but a true weight is his delight.

²⁰ The uncontrolled are hated by the Lord, but those whose ways are without error are his delight

⁸ The offering of the evil-doer is disgusting to the Lord, but the prayer of the upright man is his delight.

⁹ The way of the evil-doer is disgusting to the Lord, but he who goes after righteousness is dear to him.

¹⁵ He who gives a decision for the evil-doer and he who gives a decision against the upright, are equally disgusting to the Lord.

¹⁸ There are three things, the wonder of which overcomes me, even four things outside my knowledge:

²⁷ And nothing unclean may come into it, or anyone whose works are cursed or false; but only those whose names are in the Lamb's book of life.

⁶ These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Israel, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they have given the upright man for silver, and the poor for the price of two shoes;

⁴ These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Judah, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they have given up the law of the Lord, and have not kept his rules; and their false ways, in which their fathers went, have made them go out of the right way.

¹⁰ Unequal weights and unequal measures, they are all disgusting to the Lord.

²³ Unequal weights are disgusting to the Lord, and false scales are not good.

²⁴ There are four things which are little on the earth, but they are very wise:

²⁹ There are three things whose steps are good to see, even four whose goings are fair:

³ These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Damascus, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they have been crushing Gilead with iron grain-crushing instruments.

⁶ These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Gaza, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they took all the people away prisoners, to give them up to Edom.

⁹ These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Tyre, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they gave up all the people prisoners to Edom, without giving a thought to the brothers' agreement between them.

¹¹ These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Edom, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because his sword was turned against his brother, without pity, and his wrath was burning at all times, and he was angry for ever.

¹ These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Moab, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because he had the bones of the king of Edom burned to dust.

⁴ Her first husband, who had sent her away, may not take her back after she has been wife to another; for that is disgusting to the Lord: and you are not to be a cause of sin in the land which the Lord your God is giving you for your heritage.

¹⁸ Do not take into the house of the Lord your God, as an offering for an oath, the price of a loose woman or the money given to one used for sex purposes in the worship of the gods: for these two things are disgusting to the Lord your God.
