8 Take heed in an outbreak of leprosy that you observe carefully and do according to all that the priests, the Levites, shall teach you?. As I commanded them, you? shall be careful to do. 9 Remember what YHWH your God did to Miriam on the way, when you? came out of Egypt. 10 When you lend your brother a loan of anything, you shall not go into his house to get his pledge. 11 You shall stand outside, and the man to whom you lend it shall bring out to you the pledge outside. 12 And if the man is poor, you shall not lie asleep with his pledge. 13 You shall surely return the pledge to him when the sun goes down, that he may sleep in his own garment and bless you, and to you it shall be righteousness before the face of YHWH your God. 14 You shall not oppress a hireling who is poor and needy, one of your brothers or one of the foreigners who is in your land within your gates. 15 Each day you shall give him his wage, and let the sun not go down on it—for he is poor, and on it he lifts up his heart—lest he cry out against you to YHWH, and it be sin in you. 16 Fathers shall not be put to death for sons, and neither shall sons be put to death for fathers. A man shall be put to death for his own sin. 17 You shall not pervert justice due the sojourner or the fatherless, nor take as a pledge the garment of a widow. 18 And you shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt, and YHWH your God redeemed you from there. Upon thus I command you to do this thing. 19 When you reap your harvest in your field and have forgotten a sheaf in the field, you shall not go back to get it. To the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow it shall be, that YHWH your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. 20 When you beat your olive trees, you shall not go over the boughs again. To the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow it shall be. 21 When you gather the grapes of your vineyard, you shall not glean after yourself; to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow it shall be. 22 And you shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt. Upon thus I command you to do this thing. Deuteronomy 24:8-22, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
