Deuteronomy 24:10-15
Lexham English Bible
10 “When you make a loan to your neighbor, a loan of any kind, you shall not go into his house to take his pledge.[a] 11 You shall wait outside, and the man to whom you are lending, he shall bring the pledge outside to you. 12 And if he is a needy man, you shall not sleep in his pledge.[b] 13 You shall certainly return the pledge to him as the sun sets,[c] so that he may sleep in his cloak and may bless you, and it shall be considered righteousness on your behalf[d] before[e] Yahweh your God.
14 “You shall not exploit a hired worker, who is needy and poor, from among your fellow men or from among your aliens[f] who are in your land and in your towns.[g] 15 On his day you shall give his wage, and the sun shall not go down,[h] because he is poor and his life depends on it;[i] do this so that he does not cry out against you to Yahweh, and you incur guilt.[j]

10 “When you make your neighbor a loan of any sort, you shall not go into his house to collect his pledge. 11 You shall stand outside, and the man to whom you make the loan shall bring the pledge out to you. 12 And if he is a poor man, you shall not sleep in his pledge. 13 (A)You shall restore to him the pledge as the sun sets, that he may sleep in his cloak and (B)bless you. And (C)it shall be righteousness for you before the Lord your God.
