Deuteronomy 24:14-21

14Thou shalt not oppressH6231 a hired servant [who is] poorH6041 and needyH34 of thy brethren, or of thy sojournersH1616 who are in thy landH776 within thy gatesH8179:

15on his dayH3117 thou shalt giveH5414 him his hireH7939, neither shall the sunH8121 goH935 down upon it; for he is poorH6041, and his soulH5315 yearneth after it; lest he cry against thee to Jehovah, and it beH1961 a sinH2399 in thee.

16The fathersH1 shall not be putH4191 to deathH4191 for the sonsH1121, neither shall the sonsH1121 be putH4191 to deathH4191 for the fathersH1: every manH376 shall be putH4191 to deathH4191 for his own sinH2399.

17Thou shalt not pervert the judgmentH4941 of the stranger, [or] of the fatherlessH3490; and thou shalt not takeH2254 in pledge a widow's garmentH899.

18And thou shalt rememberH2142 that thou wast a bondman in EgyptH4714, and that Jehovah thy 1GodH430 redeemedH6299 thee from thence; thereforeH3651 I commandH6680 thee to do this thingH1697.

19When thou reapest thy harvestH7105 in thy fieldH7704, and forgettest a sheafH6016 in the fieldH7704, thou shalt not returnH7725 to fetch it; it shall beH1961 for the stranger, for the fatherlessH3490, and for the widowH490; that Jehovah thy 2GodH430 may blessH1288 thee in all the workH4639 of thy handsH3027.

20When thou shakest thine olive-tree, thou shalt not go over the boughs again; it shall beH1961 for the stranger, for the fatherlessH3490, and for the widowH490.

21When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyardH3754, thou shalt not glean it afterwards; it shall beH1961 for the stranger, for the fatherlessH3490, and for the widowH490.
