Ulangan 19:11

19:11 However, suppose a person hates someone else ¹  and stalks him, attacks him, kills him, ²  and then flees to one of these cities.

Ulangan 22:3

22:3 You shall do the same to his donkey, his clothes, or anything else your neighbor ³  has lost and you have found; you must not refuse to get involved. ⁴ 

Ulangan 23:25

23:25 When you go into the ripe grain fields of your neighbor you may pluck off the kernels with your hand, ⁵  but you must not use a sickle on your neighbor’s ripe grain.

Ulangan 32:5

32:5 His people have been unfaithful ⁶  to him;

they have not acted like his children ⁷  – this is their sin. ⁸ 

They are a perverse ⁹  and deceitful generation.

[19:11]  ¹ tn Heb “his neighbor.”

[19:11]  ² tn Heb “rises against him and strikes him fatally.”

[22:3]  ³ tn Heb “your brother” (also in v. 4).

[22:3]  ⁴ tn Heb “you must not hide yourself.”

[23:25]  ⁵ sn For the continuation of these practices into NT times see Matt 12:1-8; Mark 2:23-28; Luke 6:1-5.

[32:5]  ⁶ tc The 3rd person masculine singular שָׁחַת (shakhat) is rendered as 3rd person masculine plural by Smr, a reading supported by the plural suffix on מוּם (mum, “defect”) as well as the plural of בֵּן (ben, “sons”).

[32:5]  tn Heb “have acted corruptly” (so NASB, NIV, NLT); NRSV “have dealt falsely.”

[32:5]  ⁷ tn Heb “(they are) not his sons.”

[32:5]  ⁸ tn Heb “defect” (so NASB). This highly elliptical line suggests that Israel’s major fault was its failure to act like God’s people; in fact, they acted quite the contrary.

[32:5]  ⁹ tn Heb “twisted,” “crooked.” See Ps 18:26.
