21 You shall not oppress or afflict a resident alien, for you were once aliens residing in the land of Egypt.

22 You shall not wrong any widow or orphan.

23 If ever you wrong them and they cry out to me, I will surely listen to their cry.

24 My wrath will flare up, and I will kill you with the sword; then your own wives will be widows, and your children orphans.
