Talmud su Giobbe 11:14

אִם־אָ֣וֶן בְּ֭יָדְךָ הַרְחִיקֵ֑הוּ וְאַל־תַּשְׁכֵּ֖ן בְּאֹהָלֶ֣יךָ עַוְלָֽה׃

Se l'iniquità è nella tua mano, mettila lontano, e non lasciare che l'ingiustizia dimori nelle tue tende—

Jerusalem Talmud Ketubot

Rav Huna in the name of Rav: The witnesses can be trusted if they say, that is a document given in good faith65A document of indebtedness while no debt exists, to be activated later if the debtor needs money, given in good faith that the lender will not use it unless there really will be a loan (naturally interest-free).
In a more general sense, a good faith document is a document covering eventualities which the parties expect never to happen. Such a document is not enforceable. Some rabbinic authorities hold that pre-nuptial agreements about eventual modalities of divorce are good faith documents since nobody marries with the idea of a divorce in mind.
, or a document in trust66Greek πίστις “trust, credit, credence” (in the editio princeps the spelling is פיסיטיס; Musaphia reads פסטיס). A document which does not correspond to reality and is not intended ever to correspond to reality, but to make the holder appear richer than he really is.. But Rav said, it is forbidden to sign a document given in good faith, or a document in trust. Does this contradict what they say in the name of Rav, the witnesses can be trusted if they say, that is a document given in good faith, or a document in trust? One word of Rav contradicts a word of Rav! Rebbi Ḥaggai said, Rav did not say it is forbidden to sign but it is forbidden to keep67The Babli, in the name of Amoraim of the last generation, disagrees and holds that it is forbidden to sign inactive documents and that witnesses who claim the documents were not meant to be used declare themselves to be sinners and, therefore, unacceptable as witnesses. But if they say that the debtor stated before them that he agreed to the document only under duress, they are to be believed.. As the following68Job 11:14. In the Babli, 19b, this is attributed to R. Joshua ben Levi., “if evil is in your hand, remove it,” that is a document given in good faith, or a document in trust, “do not let injustice dwell in your house,” that is a document of indebtedness which was paid69It should be torn up rather than invalidated by a separate receipt..
