Exodus 23:9-11

9“1You shall not oppressH3905 a 2strangerH1616, since you yourselvesH864 knowH3045 the 3feelingsH5315 of a 4strangerH1616, for you also were 5strangersH1616 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.

10“6You shall sowH2232 your landH776 for sixH8337 yearsH8141 and gatherH622 in its yieldH8393, 11but on the seventhH7637 yearH7637 you shall letH8058 it 7restH8058 and lieH5203 fallowH5203, so that the needyH34 of your peopleH5971 may eatH398; and whatever they leaveH3499 the beastH2421 of the fieldH7704 may eatH398. You are to doH6213 the sameH3651 with your vineyardH3754 and your oliveH2132 groveH2132.
