For I have known him because he commands his sons and his household after him, that they should keep the way of G-d to perform righteousness and justice, in order that the Lord bring upon Abraham that which He spoke concerning him." | כִי יְדַעְתִיו לְמַעַן אֲשֶר יְצַוֶה אֶת בָנָיו וְאֶת בֵיתוֹ אַחֲרָיו וְשָמְרו דֶרֶךְ יְ־הֹוָ־ה לַעֲשוֹת צְדָקָה ומִשְפָט לְמַעַן הָבִיא יְ־הֹוָ־ה עַל אַבְרָהָם אֵת אֲשֶר דִבֶר עָלָיו: |
In this week’s parsha:
Sefer Devarim: Perek 16, Pesukim 19-20=The Book of Deuteronomy: Chapter 16, Verses 19-20
You shall not pervert law; you shall not show favoritism, and you shall not take a bribe, for bribery blinds the eyes of the wise and perverts the words of the righteous. Justice, justice shall you pursue, that you may live and possess the land the Lord, your God, is giving you. | לֹא תַטֶה מִשְפָט לֹא תַכִיר פָנִים וְלֹא תִקַח שֹחַד כִי הַשֹחַד יְעַוֵר עֵינֵי חֲכָמִים וִיסַלֵף דִבְרֵי צַדִיקִם: צֶדֶק צֶדֶק תִרְדֹף לְמַעַן תִחְיֶה וְיָרַשְתָ אֶת הָאָרֶץ אֲשֶר יְ־הֹוָ־ה אֱלֹהֶיךָ נֹתֵן לָךְ: |
