Exodus 23 AKJV — Exodus 23

1 You shall not raise a false report: put not your hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness. AKJV — Exodus 23:1

2 You shall not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shall you speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment: AKJV — Exodus 23:2

3 Neither shall you countenance a poor man in his cause. AKJV — Exodus 23:3

4 If you meet your enemy’ ox or his ass going astray, you shall surely bring it back to him again. AKJV — Exodus 23:4

5 If you see the ass of him that hates you lying under his burden, and would forbear to help him, you shall surely help with him. AKJV — Exodus 23:5

6 You shall not wrest the judgment of your poor in his cause. AKJV — Exodus 23:6

7 Keep you far from a false matter; and the innocent and righteous slay you not: for I will not justify the wicked. AKJV — Exodus 23:7

8 And you shall take no gift: for the gift blinds the wise, and perverts the words of the righteous. AKJV — Exodus 23:8

9 Also you shall not oppress a stranger: for you know the heart of a stranger, seeing you were strangers in the land of Egypt. AKJV — Exodus 23:9

10 And six years you shall sow your land, and shall gather in the fruits thereof: AKJV — Exodus 23:10

11 But the seventh year you shall let it rest and lie still; that the poor of your people may eat: and what they leave the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner you shall deal with your vineyard, and with your olive grove. AKJV — Exodus 23:11

12 Six days you shall do your work, and on the seventh day you shall rest: that your ox and your ass may rest, and the son of your handmaid, and the stranger, may be refreshed. AKJV — Exodus 23:12

13 And in all things that I have said to you be circumspect: and make no mention of the name of other gods, neither let it be heard out of your mouth. AKJV — Exodus 23:13

14 Three times you shall keep a feast to me in the year. AKJV — Exodus 23:14

15 You shall keep the feast of unleavened bread: (you shall eat unleavened bread seven days, as I commanded you, in the time appointed of the month Abib; for in it you came out from Egypt: and none shall appear before me empty:) AKJV — Exodus 23:15

16 And the feast of harvest, the first fruits of your labors, which you have sown in the field: and the feast of ingathering, which is in the end of the year, when you have gathered in your labors out of the field. AKJV — Exodus 23:16

17 Three items in the year all your males shall appear before the LORD God. AKJV — Exodus 23:17

18 You shall not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leavened bread; neither shall the fat of my sacrifice remain until the morning. AKJV — Exodus 23:18

19 The first of the first fruits of your land you shall bring into the house of the LORD your God. You shall not seethe a kid in his mother’ milk. AKJV — Exodus 23:19

20 Behold, I send an Angel before you, to keep you in the way, and to bring you into the place which I have prepared. AKJV — Exodus 23:20

21 Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him. AKJV — Exodus 23:21

22 But if you shall indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy to your enemies, and an adversary to your adversaries. AKJV — Exodus 23:22

23 For my Angel shall go before you, and bring you in to the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites: and I will cut them off. AKJV — Exodus 23:23

24 You shall not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their works: but you shall utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their images. AKJV — Exodus 23:24

25 And you shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless your bread, and your water; and I will take sickness away from the middle of you. AKJV — Exodus 23:25

26 There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in your land: the number of your days I will fulfill. AKJV — Exodus 23:26

27 I will send my fear before you, and will destroy all the people to whom you shall come, and I will make all your enemies turn their backs to you. AKJV — Exodus 23:27

28 And I will send hornets before you, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before you. AKJV — Exodus 23:28

29 I will not drive them out from before you in one year; lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against you. AKJV — Exodus 23:29

30 By little and little I will drive them out from before you, until you be increased, and inherit the land. AKJV — Exodus 23:30

31 And I will set your bounds from the Red sea even to the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert to the river: for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand; and you shall drive them out before you. AKJV — Exodus 23:31

32 You shall make no covenant with them, nor with their gods. AKJV — Exodus 23:32

33 They shall not dwell in your land, lest they make you sin against me: for if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you. AKJV — Exodus 23:33
