Exodus 23:6-11

6Thou shalt notH3808 wrest the judgmentH4941 of thy poorH34 in his causeH7379.

7KeepH7368 thee farH7368 from a falseH8267 matterH1697; and the innocentH5355 and righteousH6662 slayH2026 thou notH3808: for I will notH3808 justifyH6663 the wickedH7563.

8And thou shalt takeH3947 noH3808 gift: for a gift blindeth them that have sight, and perverteth the wordsH1697 of the righteousH6662.

9And a strangerH1616 shalt thou notH3808 oppressH3905: for ye knowH3045 the heartH5315 of a strangerH1616, seeingH3588 ye were strangersH1616 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714.

10And sixH8337 yearsH8141 thou shalt sowH2232 thy landH776, and shalt gatherH622 in the increaseH8393 thereof:

11but the seventhH7637 yearH7637 thou shalt letH8058 it restH3499 and lieH5203 fallowH5203; that the poorH34 of thy peopleH5971 may eatH398: and whatH6213 they leaveH5203 the beastH2416 of the fieldH7704 shall eatH398. In like mannerH3651 thou shalt dealH6213 with thy vineyardH3754, and with thy oliveyard.
