21 a“You shall not wrong a stranger or oppress him, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. 22 b“You shall not afflict any widow or orphan. 23“If you afflict him at all, and cif he does cry out to Me, dI will surely hear his cry; 24and My anger will be kindled, and I will kill you with the sword, eand your wives shall become widows and your children fatherless. 25 f“If you lend money to My people, to the poor ▼▼ Lit with
among you, you are not to ▼▼ Lit be
act as a creditor to him; you shall not ▼▼ Lit lay upon
charge him jinterest. 26“If you ever take your neighbor’s cloak kas a pledge, you are to return it to him before the sun sets, 27for that is his only covering; it is his cloak for his ▼▼ Lit skin
body. What else shall he sleep in? And it shall come about that mwhen he cries out to Me, I will hear him, for nI am gracious.
