Leviticus 19:9–18

Love Your Neighbor as Yourself

^9d“When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap your field right up to its edge, neither shall you gather the gleanings after your harvest. ¹⁰And you shall not strip your vineyard bare, neither shall you gather the fallen grapes of your vineyard. You shall leave them for the poor and for the sojourner: I am the Lord your God.

^11e“You shall not steal; ^fyou shall not deal falsely; you shall not lie to one another. ^12gYou shall not swear by my name falsely, and so ^hprofane the name of your God: I am the Lord.

¹³ⁱ“You shall not oppress your neighbor or rob him. ^jThe wages of a hired worker shall not remain with you all night until the morning. ^14kYou shall not curse the deaf or put a stumbling block before the blind, but you shall ^lfear your God: I am the Lord.

^15m“You shall do no injustice in court. You shall not be partial to the poor or defer to the great, but in righteousness shall you judge your neighbor. ¹⁶ⁿYou shall not go around as a slanderer among your people, and you shall not ^ostand up against the life¹ of your neighbor: I am the Lord.

^17p“You shall not hate your brother in your heart, but ^qyou shall reason frankly with your neighbor, lest you ^rincur sin because of him. ^18sYou shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against the sons of your own people, but ^tyou shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord.
