Exodus 22:18-28

18Thou shalt not suffer a witchH3784 to liveH2421.

19Whosoever liethH7901 with a beastH929 shall surelyH4191 be put to deathH4191.

20He that sacrificethH2076 unto any godH430, saveH1115 unto YhwhH3068 only, he shall be utterly destroyedH2763.

21Thou shalt neither vexH3238 a strangerH1616, nor oppressH3905 him: for ye were strangersH1616 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.

22Ye shall not afflictH6031 any widowH490, or fatherless childH3490. 23IfH518 thou afflictH6031 them in any wiseH6031, and they cryH6817 at allH6817 unto me, I will surelyH8085 hearH8085 their cryH6818; 24And my wrathH639 shall wax hotH2734, and I will killH2026 you with the swordH2719; and your wivesH802 shall be widowsH490, and your childrenH1121 fatherlessH3490.

25If thou lendH3867 moneyH3701 to any of my peopleH5971 that is poorH6041 by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurerH5383, neither shalt thou layH7760 upon him usuryH5392. 26If thou at allH2254 takeH2254 thy neighbour’sH7453 raimentH8008 to pledgeH2254, thou shalt deliverH7725 it unto him byH5704 that the sunH8121 goeth downH935: 27For that is his coveringH3682 only, it is his raimentH8071 for his skinH5785: wherein shall he sleepH7901? and it shall come to pass, when he criethH6817 unto me, that I will hearH8085; for I am graciousH2587.

28Thou shalt not blasphemeH7043 GodH430, nor curseH779 the rulerH5387 of thy peopleH5971.1
