Deuteronomy 24:10-22 - Consideration For People In Need
10 If thou lend thy brother any manner succour, thou shalt not go into his house to fetch a pledge: 11 but shalt stand without and the man to whom thou lendest, shall bring thee the pledge out at the door. 12 Furthermore, if it be a poor body, go not to sleep with his pledge: 13 but deliver him the pledge again by that the sun go down, and let him sleep in his own raiment and bless thee. And it shall be righteousness unto thee, before the LORD thy God.
14 Thou shalt not defraud a hired servant that is needy and poor, whether he be of thy brethren or a stranger that is in thy land within thy cities. 15 Give him his hire the same day, and let not the sun go down thereon. For he is needy and therewith sustaineth his life, lest he cry against thee unto the LORD and it be sin unto thee.
16 The fathers shall not die for the children nor the children for the fathers: but every man shall die for his own sin. 17 Hinder not the right of the stranger nor of the fatherless, nor take widow's raiment to pledge. 18 But remember that thou wast a servant in Egypt, and how the LORD thy God delivered thee thence. Wherefore I command thee to do this thing.
19 When thou cuttest down thine harvest in the field and hast forgotten a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again and fetch it: But it shall be for the stranger, the fatherless and the widow, that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hand. 20 When thou beatest down thine olive trees thou shalt not make clean riddance after thee: but it shall be for the stranger, the fatherless and the widow. 21 And when thou gatherest thy vineyard, thou shalt not gather clean after thee: but it shall be for the stranger, the fatherless and the widow. 22 And remember that thou wast a servant in the land of Egypt: wherefore I command thee to do this thing.
