21“4You shall not oppressH3238 a strangerH1616 nor tormentH3905 him, for you were strangersH1616 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714. 225You shall not oppressH6031 anyH3605 widowH490 or orphanH3490. 23IfH518 you oppressH6031 him atH6031 allH6031, and 6ifH518 he does cryH6817 outH6817 to Me, 7I will assuredlyH8085 hearH8085 his cryH6818; 24and My angerH639 will be kindledH2734, and I will killH2026 you with the swordH2719, 8and your wivesH802 shall becomeH1961 widowsH490 and your childrenH1121 fatherlessH3490.
