10 When thou shalt ask again of thy neighbor anything lent, thou shalt not go [a]into his house to fet his pledge.

11 But thou shalt stand without, and the man that borrowed it of thee, shall bring the pledge out of the doors unto thee.

12 Furthermore if it be a poor body, thou shalt not sleep with his pledge,

13 But shalt restore him the pledge when the sun goeth down, that he may sleep in his raiment, and bless thee: and it shall be righteousness unto thee [b]before the Lord thy God.
