Exodus 22:22-27

221You shall not oppressH6031 anyH3605 widowH490 or orphanH3490. 23IfH518 you oppressH6031 him atH6031 allH6031, and 2ifH518 he does cryH6817 outH6817 to Me, 3I will assuredlyH8085 hearH8085 his cryH6818; 24and My angerH639 will be kindledH2734, and I will killH2026 you with the swordH2719, 4and your wivesH802 shall becomeH1961 widowsH490 and your childrenH1121 fatherlessH3490.

25“5IfH518 you lendH3867 moneyH3701 to My peopleH5971, to the poorH6041 6amongH5973 you, you are not to 7actH1961 as a creditorH5383 to him; you shall not 8chargeH7760H5921 him 9interestH5392. 26IfH518 you everH2254 seizeH2254 your neighbor’sH7453 cloakH8008 10asH2254 aH2254 pledgeH2254, you are to returnH7725 it to him beforeH5704 the sunH8121 setsH935, 27for that is his onlyH905 coveringH3682; it is his cloakH8071 for his 11bodyH5785. WhatH4100 else is he to sleepH7901 in? And it will comeH1961 aboutH1961 that 12whenH3588 he criesH6817 outH6817 to Me, I will listenH8085 to him, for 13I am graciousH2587.
