H1961–הָיָה–ha.yah

And when morning came on the third day, there were thunders and flames and a thick cloud on the mountain, and a horn sounding very loud; and all the people in the tents were shaking with fear.

וַיְהִי֩ (יְהִי֩) y.Hi “it was”בִּֽהְיֹ֣ת (הְיֹ֣ת) h.Yot “came”וַיְהִי֩ (יְהִי֩) y.Hi “it was”

And when the sound of the horn became louder and louder, Moses' words were answered by the voice of God.

וַיְהִי֙ (יְהִי֙) y.Hi “it was”

You are to have no other gods but me.

יִהְיֶֽה־ yih.yeh- “it will be[long]”

And Moses said to the people, Have no fear: for God has come to put you to the test, so that fearing him you may be kept from sin.

תִּהְיֶ֧ה tih.Yeh “<it> may be”

If his master gives him a wife, and he gets sons or daughters by her, the wife and her children will be the property of the master, and the servant is to go away by himself.

תִּהְיֶה֙ tih.Yeh “she will belong”

If men, while fighting, do damage to a woman with child, causing the loss of the child, but no other evil comes to her, the man will have to make payment up to the amount fixed by her husband, in agreement with the decision of the judges.

יִהְיֶ֖ה yih.Yeh “it will be”

But if damage comes to her, let life be given in payment for life,

יִהְיֶ֑ה yih.Yeh “it will be”

The owner of the hole is responsible; he will have to make payment to their owner, but the dead beast will be his.

יִֽהְיֶה־ yih.yeh- “it will be[long]”

But if it is common knowledge that the ox has frequently done such damage in the past, and its owner has not kept it under control, he will have to give ox for ox; and the dead beast will be his.

יִֽהְיֶה־ yih.yeh- “it will be[long]”

If he takes his oath before the Lord that he has not put his hand to his neighbour's goods, the owner is to take his word for it and he will not have to make payment for it.

תִּהְיֶה֙ tih.Yeh “it will be”

Do no wrong to a man from a strange country, and do not be hard on him; for you yourselves were living in a strange country, in the land of Egypt.

הֱיִיתֶ֖ם he.yi.Tem “you were”

And in the heat of my wrath I will put you to death with the sword, so that your wives will be widows and your children without fathers.

וְהָי֤וּ (הָי֤וּ) ha.Yu “they will be”

If you let any of the poor among my people have the use of your money, do not be a hard creditor to him, and do not take interest.

תִהְיֶ֥ה tih.Yeh “you must be”

For it is the only thing he has for covering his skin; what is he to go to sleep in? and when his cry comes up to me, I will give ear, for my mercy is great.

וְהָיָה֙ (הָיָה֙) ha.Yah “it will be”

In the same way with your oxen and your sheep: for seven days let the young one be with its mother; on the eighth day give it to me.

יִהְיֶ֣ה yih.Yeh “it will be”

You are to be holy men to me: the flesh of no animal whose death has been caused by the beasts of the field may be used for your food; it is to be given to the dogs.

תִּהְי֣וּן (תִּהְי֣וּ) tih.Yu “you will be”

Do not let a false statement go further; do not make an agreement with evil-doers to be a false witness.

לִהְיֹ֖ת (הְיֹ֖ת) h.Yot “be”

Do not be moved to do wrong by the general opinion, or give the support of your words to a wrong decision:

תִהְיֶ֥ה tih.Yeh “you must be”

Do not be hard on the man from a strange country who is living among you; for you have had experience of the feelings of one who is far from the land of his birth, because you yourselves were living in Egypt, in a strange land.

הֱיִיתֶ֖ם he.yi.Tem “you were”

All your animals will give birth without loss, not one will be without young in all your land; I will give you a full measure of life.

תִהְיֶ֛ה tih.Yeh “anyone will be”

I will not send them all out in one year, for fear that their land may become waste, and the beasts of the field be increased overmuch against you.

תִּהְיֶ֤ה tih.Yeh “it should become”

יִהְיֶ֥ה yih.Yeh “it will become”

And the Lord said to Moses, Come up to me on the mountain, and take your place there: and I will give you the stones on which I have put in writing the law and the orders, so that you may give the people knowledge of them.

וֶהְיֵה־ (הְיֵה) h.yeh- “be”

And Moses went up the mountain, into the cloud, and was there for forty days and forty nights.

וַיְהִ֤י (יְהִ֤י) y.Hi “he was”

The rods are to be kept in the rings, and never taken out.

יִהְי֖וּ yih.Yu “they will be”
