Exodus 22:20-25

20“1He who sacrifices to 2any god, other than to the Lord alone, shall be 3utterly destroyed.

21“4You shall not wrong a stranger or oppress him, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. 225You shall not afflict any widow or orphan. 23If you afflict him at all, and 6if he does cry out to Me, 7I will surely hear his cry; 24and My anger will be kindled, and I will kill you with the sword, 8and your wives shall become widows and your children fatherless.

25“9If you lend money to My people, to the poor 10among you, you are not to 11act as a creditor to him; you shall not 12charge him 13interest.
