Leviticus 19:9-10
English Standard Version
Love Your Neighbor as Yourself
9 (A)“When you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap your field right up to its edge, neither shall you gather the gleanings after your harvest. 10 And you shall not strip your vineyard bare, neither shall you gather the fallen grapes of your vineyard. You shall leave them for the poor and for the sojourner: I am the Lord your God.

Leaving the Gleanings
9 “‘When you gather in the harvest[a] of your land, you must not completely harvest the corner of your field,[b] and you must not gather up the gleanings of your harvest. 10 You must not pick your vineyard bare,[c] and you must not gather up the fallen grapes of your vineyard. You must leave them for the poor and the resident foreigner.[d] I am the Lord your God.
