Deuteronomy 24:6

6“No one shall take a mill or an upper millstone in pledge, for that would be taking a life in pledge.

Deuteronomy 24:10-13

10“When you make your neighbor a loan of any sort, you shall not go into his house to collect his pledge. 11You shall stand outside, and the man to whom you make the loan shall bring the pledge out to you. 12And if he is a poor man, you shall not sleep in his pledge. 13 aYou shall restore to him the pledge as the sun sets, that he may sleep in his cloak and bbless you. And cit shall be righteousness for you before the Lord your God.

Deuteronomy 24:17-21

17 d“You shall not pervert the justice due to the sojourner or to the fatherless, eor take a widow’s garment in pledge, 18but fyou shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt and the Lord your God redeemed you from there; therefore I command you to do this.

19 g“When you reap your harvest in your field and forget a sheaf in the field, you shall not go back to get it. It shall be for the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, hthat the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. 20When you beat your olive trees, you shall not go over them again. It shall be for the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow. 21When you gather the grapes of your vineyard, you shall not strip it afterward. It shall be for the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow.

1 Samuel 12:3

3Here I am; testify against me before the Lord and before ihis anointed. jWhose ox have I taken? Or whose donkey have I taken? Or whom have I defrauded? Whom have I oppressed? Or from whose hand have I taken a bribe to blind my eyes with it? Testify against me ▼
▼Septuagint; Hebrew lacks  Testify against me
 and I will restore it to you.”

Job 22:6-9

6For you have lexacted pledges of your brothers for nothing
mand stripped the naked of their clothing.
 7You have given no water to the weary to drink,
and you have nwithheld bread from the hungry.
 8 oThe man with power possessed the land,
and pthe favored man lived in it.
 9You have qsent widows away empty,
and rthe arms of sthe fatherless were crushed.

Job 31:16-17

16 “If I have twithheld anything that the poor desired,
or have ucaused the eyes of the widow to fail,
 17or have eaten my morsel alone,
and the fatherless has not eaten of it
