Exodus 23:1-5 ▼

1 You shall not repeat a false report. Do not join your hand with the wicked to be a witness supporting violence.

2 You shall not follow the crowd in doing wrong. When testifying in a lawsuit, you shall not follow the crowd in perverting justice.

3 You shall not favor the poor in a lawsuit.

4 When you come upon your enemy’s ox or donkey going astray, you must see to it that it is returned.

5 When you notice the donkey of one who hates you lying down under its burden, you should not desert him; you must help him with it.
