21 “ aYou shall not oppress a stranger nor torment him, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. 22 bYou shall not oppress any widow or orphan. 23If you oppress him at all, and cif he does cry out to Me, dI will assuredly 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 “ fIf 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. 26If you ever seize 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 is he to sleep in? And it will come about that mwhen he cries out to Me, I will listen to him, for nI am gracious.
