Exodus 23:1-7

Matthew(i) 1 Thou shalt not accepte a vayne tale, nether shalt put thine hand wyth the wycked to be an vnryghteous wytnesse. 2 Thou shalt not folowe a multitude to do euell: neyther answere in a matter of plea that thou (wouldest to folow manye) turne asyde from the trueth, 3 neither shalt thou paint a pore mans cause. 4 When thou metest thine enemies oxe or asse goynge a straye, thou shalt brynge them to him agayne. 5 If thou se thine enemies asse synke vnder his burthen, thou shalt not passe by and let him alone: but shalt helpe hym to lyfte hym vp againe. 6 Thou shalt not hinder the right of the poore that are amonge you in their sute. 7 Kepe the ferre from a false matter, and the Innocente and righteous se thou sley not, for I wil not iustify the wicked.
