1  ^uA false balance is an abomination to the Lord,

but a just weight is his delight.

23  Unequal weights are an abomination to the Lord,

and false scales are not good.

5  saying, “When will the ^unew moon be over,

that we may sell grain?

And the Sabbath,

that we may offer wheat for sale,

that we may make the ephah small and the shekel¹ great

and deal deceitfully with ^vfalse balances,

11  Shall I acquit the man with ^ewicked scales

and with a bag of deceitful weights?
