When there is any strife between men, they shall come unto Judgement: and they shall have Justice done them, by declaring him just which is just, and by pronouncing him wicked which is wicked. 2 And if the wicked be found worthy of beating, the Judge shall cause him to be laid down and to be beaten before his face, according to his trespass, unto a certain number of stripes. 3 Forty stripes shall he cause him to have, and not above: least if he should be beaten above this number of stripes, thy brother should appear despised in thy sight. 4 Thou shalt not mussel the ox his mouth which treadeth out the corn.
