"When you make any kind of loan to your neighbor, you are not to enter his house to take his collateral.
11
You must stand outside, and the borrower will bring the collateral outside to you.
12
If he is poor, you are not to go to bed with what he gave as collateral in your possession;
13
rather, you must restore the pledged item at sunset; then he will go to sleep wearing his garment and bless you. This will be an upright deed of yours before ADONAI your God.
14
"You are not to exploit a hired worker who is poor and needy, whether one of your brothers or a foreigner living in your land in your town.
15
You are to pay him his wages the day he earns them, before sunset; for he is poor and looks forward to being paid. Otherwise he will cry out against you to ADONAI, and it will be your sin.
16
"Fathers are not to be executed for the children, nor are children to be executed for the fathers; every person will be executed for his own sin.
17
"You are not to deprive the foreigner or the orphan of the justice which is his due, and you are not to take a widow's clothing as collateral for a loan.
18
Rather, remember that you were a slave in Egypt; and ADONAI your God redeemed you from there. That is why I am ordering you to do this.
19
"When harvesting the grain in your field, if you forgot a sheaf of grain there, you are not to go back and get it; it will remain there for the foreigner, the orphan and the widow, so that ADONAI your God will bless you in all the work you do.
20
When you beat your olive tree, you are not to go back over the branches again; the olives that are left will be for the foreigner, the orphan and the widow.
