Neighbor

Every woman shall ask her neighbor and any woman staying in her house for silver and gold jewelry and clothing, and you will put them on your sons and daughters. So you will plunder the Egyptians.”

If the household is too small for a whole lamb, they are to share with the nearest neighbor based on the number of people, and apportion the lamb accordingly.

You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his manservant or maidservant, or his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”

But if a man schemes and acts willfully against his neighbor to kill him, you must take him away from My altar to be put to death.

If a man gives his neighbor money or goods for safekeeping and they are stolen from the neighbor’s house, the thief, if caught, must pay back double.

In all cases of illegal possession of an ox, a donkey, a sheep, a garment, or any lost item that someone claims, ‘This is mine,’ both parties shall bring their cases before the judges. The one whom the judges find guilty must pay back double to his neighbor.

If a man gives a donkey, an ox, a sheep, or any other animal to be cared for by his neighbor, but it dies or is injured or stolen while no one is watching,

But if the animal was actually stolen from the neighbor, he must make restitution to the owner.

If a man borrows an animal from his neighbor and it is injured or dies while its owner is not present, he must make full restitution.

He told them, “This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says: ‘Each of you men is to fasten his sword to his side, go back and forth through the camp from gate to gate, and slay his brother, his friend, and his neighbor.’”

“If someone sins and acts unfaithfully against the LORD by deceiving his neighbor in regard to a deposit or security entrusted to him or stolen, or if he extorts his neighbor

“If someone sins and acts unfaithfully against the LORD by deceiving his neighbor in regard to a deposit or security entrusted to him or stolen, or if he extorts his neighbor

You must not defraud your neighbor or rob him. You must not withhold until morning the wages due a hired hand.

You must not pervert justice; you must not show partiality to the poor or favoritism to the rich; you are to judge your neighbor fairly.

You must not go about spreading slander among your people. You must not endanger the life of your neighbor. I am the LORD.

You must not harbor hatred against your brother in your heart. Directly rebuke your neighbor, so that you will not incur guilt on account of him.

Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against any of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD.

If a man commits adultery with another man’s wife—with the wife of his neighbor—both the adulterer and the adulteress must surely be put to death.

If anyone injures his neighbor, whatever he has done must be done to him:

If you make a sale to your neighbor or a purchase from him, you must not take advantage of each other.

You are to buy from your neighbor according to the number of years since the last Jubilee; he is to sell to you according to the number of harvest years remaining.

…to which a manslayer could flee after killing his neighbor unintentionally without prior malice. To save one’s own life, he could flee to one of these cities:

You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.

You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife. You shall not covet your neighbor’s house or field, or his manservant or maidservant, or his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor.”

This is the manner of remission: Every creditor shall cancel what he has loaned to his neighbor. He is not to collect anything from his neighbor or brother, because the LORD’s time of release has been proclaimed.

This is the manner of remission: Every creditor shall cancel what he has loaned to his neighbor. He is not to collect anything from his neighbor or brother, because the LORD’s time of release has been proclaimed.

Now this is the situation regarding the manslayer who flees to one of these cities to save his life, having killed his neighbor accidentally, without intending to harm him:

If he goes into the forest with his neighbor to cut timber and swings his axe to chop down a tree, but the blade flies off the handle and strikes and kills his neighbor, he may flee to one of these cities to save his life.

If he goes into the forest with his neighbor to cut timber and swings his axe to chop down a tree, but the blade flies off the handle and strikes and kills his neighbor, he may flee to one of these cities to save his life.

If, however, a man hates his neighbor and lies in wait, attacks him and kills him, and then flees to one of these cities,

Do nothing to the young woman, because she has committed no sin worthy of death. This case is just like one in which a man attacks his neighbor and murders him.

When you lend anything to your neighbor, do not enter his house to collect security.

‘Cursed is he who strikes down his neighbor in secret.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’

Now if the avenger of blood pursues him, they must not surrender the manslayer into his hand, because that man killed his neighbor accidentally without prior malice.

The neighbor women said, “A son has been born to Naomi,” and they named him Obed. He became the father of Jesse, the father of David.

Then Saul and all his troops assembled and marched to the battle, and they found the Philistines in total confusion, with each man wielding the sword against his neighbor.

So Samuel said to him, “The LORD has torn the kingdom of Israel from you today and has given it to your neighbor who is better than you.

He has done exactly what He spoke through me: The LORD has torn the kingdom out of your hand and given it to your neighbor David.

When a man sins against his neighbor and is required to take an oath, and he comes to take an oath before Your altar in this temple,

When a man sins against his neighbor and is required to take an oath, and he comes to take an oath before Your altar in this temple,

Oh, that a man might plead with God as he pleads with his neighbor!

…who has no slander on his tongue, who does no harm to his neighbor, who casts no scorn on his friend,

Whoever slanders his neighbor in secret, I will put to silence; the one with haughty eyes and a proud heart, I will not endure.

Do not tell your neighbor, “Come back tomorrow and I will provide”—when you already have the means.

Do not devise evil against your neighbor, for he trustfully dwells beside you.

My son, if you have put up security for your neighbor, if you have struck hands in pledge with a stranger,

…then do this, my son, to free yourself, for you have fallen into your neighbor’s hands: Go, humble yourself, and press your plea with your neighbor.

With his mouth the ungodly man destroys his neighbor, but through knowledge the righteous are rescued.

Whoever shows contempt for his neighbor lacks judgment, but a man of understanding remains silent.

The poor man is hated even by his neighbor, but many are those who love the rich.

He who despises his neighbor sins, but blessed is he who shows kindness to the poor.

A violent man entices his neighbor and leads him down a path that is not good.

A man lacking judgment strikes hands in pledge and puts up security for his neighbor.

The soul of the wicked man craves evil; his neighbor finds no favor in his eyes.

Do not testify against your neighbor without cause, and do not deceive with your lips.

…do not bring hastily to court. Otherwise, what will you do in the end when your neighbor puts you to shame?

Argue your case with your neighbor without betraying another’s confidence,

Like a club or sword or sharp arrow is a man who bears false witness against his neighbor.

…so is the man who deceives his neighbor and says, “I was only joking!”

Do not forsake your friend or your father’s friend, and do not go to your brother’s house in the day of your calamity; better a neighbor nearby than a brother far away.

If one blesses his neighbor with a loud voice early in the morning, it will be counted to him as a curse.

A man who flatters his neighbor spreads a net for his feet.

I saw that all labor and success spring from a man’s envy of his neighbor. This too is futile and a pursuit of the wind.

The people will oppress one another, man against man, neighbor against neighbor; the young will rise up against the old, and the base against the honorable.

The people will oppress one another, man against man, neighbor against neighbor; the young will rise up against the old, and the base against the honorable.

“So I will incite Egyptian against Egyptian; brother will fight against brother, neighbor against neighbor, city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.

“So I will incite Egyptian against Egyptian; brother will fight against brother, neighbor against neighbor, city against city, and kingdom against kingdom.

“Let everyone guard against his neighbor; do not trust any brother, for every brother deals craftily, and every friend spreads slander.

Their tongues are deadly arrows; they speak deception. With his mouth a man speaks peace to his neighbor, but in his heart he sets a trap for him.

No longer will each man teach his neighbor or his brother, saying, ‘Know the LORD,’ because they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares the LORD. For I will forgive their iniquities and will remember their sins no more.”

Recently you repented and did what pleased Me; each of you proclaimed freedom for his neighbor. You made a covenant before Me in the house that bears My Name.

Therefore this is what the LORD says: You have not obeyed Me; you have not proclaimed freedom, each man for his brother and for his neighbor. So now I proclaim freedom for you, declares the LORD—freedom to fall by sword, by plague, and by famine! I will make you a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth.

On that day, declares the LORD of Hosts, you will each invite your neighbor to sit under your own vine and fig tree.’”

For before those days neither man nor beast received wages, nor was there safety from the enemy for anyone who came or went, for I had turned every man against his neighbor.

…do not plot evil in your hearts against your neighbor, and do not love to swear falsely, for I hate all these things,” declares the LORD.

For I will no longer have compassion on the people of the land, declares the LORD, but behold, I will cause each man to fall into the hands of his neighbor and his king, who will devastate the land, and I will not deliver it from their hands.”

You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor’ and ‘Hate your enemy.’

…honor your father and mother, and love your neighbor as yourself.’”

And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’

The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.”

…and to love Him with all your heart and with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself. This is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’ and ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”

But wanting to justify himself, he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?”

But the man who was abusing his neighbor pushed Moses aside and said, ‘Who made you ruler and judge over us?

Be indebted to no one, except to one another in love. For he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law.

The commandments “Do not commit adultery,” “Do not murder,” “Do not steal,” “Do not covet,” and any other commandments, are summed up in this one decree: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

Love does no wrong to its neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

Each of us should please his neighbor for his good, to build him up.

The entire law is fulfilled in a single decree: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

Therefore each of you must put off falsehood and speak truthfully to his neighbor, for we are all members of one another.

No longer will each one teach his neighbor or his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ because they will all know Me, from the least of them to the greatest.

If you really fulfill the royal law stated in Scripture, “Love your neighbor as yourself,” you are doing well.

There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the One who is able to save and destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?
