9. The Lord God said:You leaders of Israel have robbed and cheated my people long enough! I want you to stop sinning and start doing what is right and fair. You must never again force my people off their own land. I, the Lord, have spoken.
10. So from now on, you must use honest weights and measures.
11. The ephah will be the standard dry measure, and the bath will be the standard liquid measure. Their size will be based on the homer, which will equal ten ephahs or ten baths.
12. The standard unit of weight will be the shekel. One shekel will equal twenty gerahs, and sixty shekels will equal one mina.
13. Leaders of Israel, the people must bring you one sixtieth of their grain harvests as offerings to me.
