“ If a malicious witness testifies against someone accusing him of a crime,

若有凶恶的见证人起来，见证某人作恶，

若有人怀恶意，起来作证，控告他人犯法，

若有人怀恶意，起来作证，控告他人犯法，

如果有人作伪证诬陷别人，

如果有强横的见证人起来，指证某人作恶，

若有凶惡的見證人起來，見證某人作惡，

若有人懷惡意，起來作證，控告他人犯法，

若有人懷惡意，起來作證，控告他人犯法，

如果有人作偽證誣陷別人，

如果有強橫的見證人起來，指證某人作惡，

若有一個強暴的見證人起來指責一個人，作證控訴他橫逆不道，

如有妄證、起而罪人、

如有妄證以罪歸人、

如有妄證者、證人犯罪、

If a malicious witness takes the stand to accuse someone of a crime,

Suppose a witness who tells lies goes to court and brings charges against someone. The witness says someone committed a crime.

If a malicious witness arises to accuse a person of wrongdoing,

“ If a malicious witness comes forward and accuses someone of a crime,

If a malicious witness rises up against a person to testify against him of wrongdoing,

If a false witness rises against any man to testify against him of wrongdoing,

If an unrighteous witness rise up against any man to testify against him of wrong- doing,

“ If a malicious witness testifies against someone accusing him of a crime,

If a false witness rise up against any man to testify against him[ that which is] wrong;

If a false witness testifies against another person and accuses him of a crime,

If an unrighteous witness rises up against any man to testify against him of wrongdoing,

Do not give me over to the will of my foes, for false witnesses rise up against me, breathing violence.

“ You must not spread a false report. Do not join the wicked to be a malicious witness.“ You must not follow a crowd in wrongdoing. Do not testify in a lawsuit and go along with a crowd to pervert justice.Do not show favoritism to a poor person in his lawsuit.“ If you come across your enemy’s stray ox or donkey, you must return it to him.“ If you see the donkey of someone who hates you lying helpless under its load, and you want to refrain from helping it, you must help with it.“ You must not deny justice to a poor person among you in his lawsuit.Stay far away from a false accusation. Do not kill the innocent and the just, because I will not justify the guilty.

Malicious witnesses come forward; they question me about things I do not know.

The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were looking for testimony against Jesus to put him to death, but they could not find any.For many were giving false testimony against him, and the testimonies did not agree.Some stood up and gave false testimony against him, stating,“ We heard him say,‘ I will destroy this temple made with human hands, and in three days I will build another not made by hands.’”Yet their testimony did not agree even on this.

They also presented false witnesses who said,“ This man never stops speaking against this holy place and the law.

Then seat two wicked men opposite him and have them testify against him, saying,“ You have cursed God and the king!” Then take him out and stone him to death.The men of his city, the elders and nobles who lived in his city, did as Jezebel had sent word to them, just as it was written in the letters she had sent them.They proclaimed a fast and seated Naboth at the head of the people.The two wicked men came in and sat opposite him. Then the wicked men testified against Naboth in the presence of the people, saying,“ Naboth has cursed God and the king!” So they took him outside the city and stoned him to death with stones.
