Deuteronomy 24:10-22 - Consideration For People In Need
10 'When thou liftest up on thy brother a debt of anything, thou dost not go in unto his house to obtain his pledge; 11 at the outside thou dost stand, and the man on whom thou art lifting it up is bringing out unto thee the pledge at the outside. 12 'And if he is a poor man, thou dost not lie down with his pledge; 13 thou dost certainly give back to him the pledge at the going in of the sun, and he hath lain down in his own raiment, and hath blessed thee; and to thee it is righteousness before Jehovah thy God.
14 'Thou dost not oppress a hireling, poor and needy, of thy brethren or of thy sojourner who is in thy land within thy gates; 15 in his day thou dost give his hire, and the sun doth not go in upon it, for he is poor, and unto it he is lifting up his soul, and he doth not cry against thee unto Jehovah, and it hath been in thee -- sin.
16 Fathers are not put to death for sons, and sons are not put to death for fathers -- each for his own sin, they are put to death. 17 'Thou dost not turn aside the judgment of a fatherless sojourner, nor take in pledge the garment of a widow; 18 and thou hast remembered that a servant thou hast been in Egypt, and Jehovah thy God doth ransom thee from thence; therefore I am commanding thee to do this thing.
19 'When thou reapest thy harvest in thy field, and hast forgotten a sheaf in a field, thou dost not turn back to take it; to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, it is; so that Jehovah thy God doth bless thee in all the work of thy hands. 20 'When thou beatest thine olive, thou dost not examine the branch behind thee; to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, it is. 21 'When thou cuttest thy vineyard, thou dost not glean behind thee; to the sojourner, to the fatherless, and to the widow, it is; 22 and thou hast remembered that a servant thou hast been in the land of Egypt; therefore I am commanding thee to do this thing.
