Exodus 22:27-30

27This coat may be the only blanket your neighbor has. How can a person sleep without it? If you do not return it and your neighbor cries out to me for help, then I will hear, for I am merciful.

28“You must not dishonor God or curse any of your rulers.

29“You must not hold anything back when you give me offerings from your crops and your wine. “You must give me your firstborn sons.

30“You must also give me the firstborn of your cattle, sheep, and goats. But leave the newborn animal with its mother for seven days; then give it to me on the eighth day.
