Deuteronomy
25 from Scroll 1Q5 Deuteronomyb
13 You
shall not have in your bag diverse weights, one heavy and one light.
[..]
15 You shall have a
perfect and just weight. You shall have a
perfect and just measure, that your days may be long in the land which Yahweh
your God gives you. 16 For all who do
such things, all who do unrighteously, are an abomination to Yahweh your God.
[..]
18 how he
met you
by the way, and struck the rearmost of you, all who were feeble behind you,
when you were faint and weary; and he didn’t fear God.
Deuteronomy
25 from
Scroll 4Q33
Deuteronomyf
3 He may sentence him
to no more than forty stripes. He shall not give more; lest, if he should give
more, and beat him more than that many stripes, then your brother will be
degraded in your sight.
[..]
5 If
brothers dwell together, and one of them dies, and has no son, the wife of
the dead shall not be married outside to a stranger. Her husband’s brother
shall go in to her, and take her as his wife, and
perform the duty of a husband’s brother to her. 6 It shall be
that the firstborn whom she bears shall succeed
in the name of his brother who is dead, that his name not be blotted out of Israel.
7 If the man
doesn’t want to take his brother’s
wife, then his brother’s wife shall go up to the gate to the elders, and say,
“My husband’s brother refuses to raise up
to his brother a name in Israel. He
will not perform the duty of a
husband’s brother to me.” 8 Then the elders of his city shall call him,
and speak to him: and if he stands and says,
“I don’t want to take her;” 9 then
his brother’s wife shall come to him
in the presence of the elders, and loose his shoe from off his foot, and
spit in his face. She shall answer and
say, “So shall it be done to the man who does not build up his brother’s
house.”
Deuteronomy 25 from
Scroll 4Q34 Deuteronomyg
1 If there is a controversy between men, and they come to
judgment, and the judges judge them; then they shall justify the righteous, and condemn the wicked. 2 It shall be, if
the wicked man is worthy to be beaten, that the judge shall cause him to lie
down, and to be beaten before his face, according to his wickedness, by number. 3 He may sentence him to no
more than forty stripes. He shall not give more; lest, if he should give more,
and beat him more than that many stripes, then
your brother will be degraded in your sight.

14 You
shall not have in your house diverse measures, one
large and one small.
15 You shall have a perfect and just weight. You shall have a perfect and
just measure, that your days may be long in the land which Yahweh your
God gives you. 16 For all who do such things, all
who do unrighteously, are an abomination to Yahweh your God.
17 Remember
what
Amalek did to you by
the way as you came out of Egypt; 18 how
he met you by the way, and struck
the rearmost of you, all who were feeble behind you, when you were
faint and weary; and he didn’t fear God.
19 Therefore it shall be, when Yahweh your God has given you rest
from all your enemies all around, in the
land which Yahweh your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it, that
you shall blot out the memory of Amalek
from under the sky. You shall not forget.
