Leviticus 19:1-2, 11-18

The Lord spoke to Moses, saying:

2. “Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel. And thou shalt say to them: Be ye holy, because I the Lord your God am holy.

11. You shall not steal. You shall not lie: neither shall any man deceive his neighbour.

12. Thou shalt not swear falsely by my name, nor profane the name of thy God. I am the Lord.

13. Thou shalt not calumniate thy neighbour, nor oppress him by violence. The wages of him that hath been hired by thee shall not abide with thee until the morning.

14. Thou shalt not speak evil of the deaf, nor put a stumbling block before the blind: but thou shalt fear the Lord thy God, because I am the Lord.

15. Thou shalt not do that which is unjust, nor judge unjustly. Respect not the person of the poor: nor honour the countenance of the mighty. But judge thy neighbour according to justice.

16. Thou shalt not be a detractor nor a whisperer among the people. Thou shalt not stand against the blood of thy neighbour. I am the Lord.

17. Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart: But reprove him openly, lest thou incur sin through him.

18. Seek not revenge, nor be mindful of the injury of thy citizens. Thou shalt love thy friend as thyself. I am the Lord.
