גדולה וקטנה. גְּדוֹלָה שֶׁמַּכְחֶשֶׁת אֶת הַקְּטַנָּה, שֶׁלֹּא יְהֵי נוֹטֵל בַּגְּדוֹלָה וּמַחֲזִיר בַּקְּטַנָּה (ספרי):
Large and small. Where the larger contradicts the smaller, so that he will not receive with the larger, and return with the smaller.
לֹא־יִהְיֶה לְךָ בְּבֵיתְךָ אֵיפָה וְאֵיפָה גְּדוֹלָה וּקְטַנָּֽה׃
You shall not have in your house varying measures, large and small.

אֶבֶן שְׁלֵמָה וָצֶדֶק יִֽהְיֶה־לָּךְ אֵיפָה שְׁלֵמָה וָצֶדֶק יִֽהְיֶה־לָּךְ לְמַעַן יַאֲרִיכוּ יָמֶיךָ עַל הָֽאֲדָמָה אֲשֶׁר־יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ נֹתֵן לָֽךְ׃
A fully accurate, just weight, you shall have, you are to have whole and honest measures; in order that you live long on the land that Adonoy, your God, is giving you.

כִּי תוֹעֲבַת יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ כׇּל־עֹשֵׂה אֵלֶּה כֹּל עֹשֵׂה עָֽוֶל׃ {פ}
Because Adonoy, your God’s abomination, are all who do these [things]; all who do falsehood.
