¹ Balances of deceit `are' an abomination to Jehovah, And a perfect weight `is' His delight.

¹¹ A just beam and balances `are' Jehovah's, His work `are' all the stones of the bag.

¹⁰ A stone and a stone, an ephah and an ephah, Even both of them `are' an abomination to Jehovah.

²³ An abomination to Jehovah `are' a stone and a stone, And balances of deceit `are' not good.

¹³ `Thou hast not in thy bag a stone and a stone, a great and a small.

¹⁴ Thou hast not in thy house an ephah and an ephah, a great and a small.

¹⁵ Thou hast a stone complete and just, thou hast an ephah complete and just, so that they prolong thy days on the ground which Jehovah thy God is giving to thee;

¹⁶ for the abomination of Jehovah thy God `is' any one doing these things, any one doing iniquity.

³⁵ `Ye do not do perversity in judgment, in mete-yard, in weight, or in liquid measure;

³⁶ righteous balances, righteous weights, a righteous ephah, and a righteous hin ye have; I `am' Jehovah your God, who hath brought you out from the land of Egypt;

¹⁰ Just balances, and a just ephah, and a just bath -- ye have.

¹¹ The ephah and the bath is of one measure, for the bath to bear a tenth of the homer, and the ephah a tenth of the homer: according to the homer is its measurement.

¹² And, the shekel `is' twenty gerah: twenty shekels, five and twenty shekels, fifteen shekels -- is your maneh.

⁷ Canaan! in his hand `are' balances of deceit! To oppress he hath loved.

⁵ Saying, When doth the new moon pass, And we sell ground corn? And the sabbath, and we open out pure corn? To make little the ephah, And to make great the shekel, And to use perversely balances of deceit.

⁶ To purchase with money the poor, And the needy for a pair of sandals, Yea, the refuse of the pure corn we sell.

¹⁰ Are there yet `in' the house of the wicked Treasures of wickedness, And the abhorred scanty ephah?

¹¹ Do I reckon `it' pure with balances of wickedness? And with a bag of deceitful stones?
