Deuteronomy 24:10-15
New International Version
10 When you make a loan of any kind to your neighbor, do not go into their house to get what is offered to you as a pledge.(A) 11 Stay outside and let the neighbor to whom you are making the loan bring the pledge out to you. 12 If the neighbor is poor, do not go to sleep with their pledge(B) in your possession. 13 Return their cloak by sunset(C) so that your neighbor may sleep in it.(D) Then they will thank you, and it will be regarded as a righteous act in the sight of the Lord your God.(E)
14 Do not take advantage of a hired worker who is poor and needy, whether that worker is a fellow Israelite or a foreigner residing in one of your towns.(F) 15 Pay them their wages each day before sunset, because they are poor(G) and are counting on it.(H) Otherwise they may cry to the Lord against you, and you will be guilty of sin.(I)

10 “When you make your neighbor a loan of any kind, you shall not go into the house to take the pledge. 11 You shall wait outside while the person to whom you are making the loan brings the pledge out to you. 12 If the person is poor, you shall not sleep in the garment given you as[a] the pledge. 13 You shall give the pledge back by sunset, so that your neighbor may sleep in the cloak and bless you, and it will be to your credit before the Lord your God.(A)
14 “You shall not withhold the wages of poor and needy laborers, whether other Israelites or aliens who reside in your land in one of your towns.(B) 15 You shall pay them their wages daily before sunset, because they are poor and their livelihood depends on them; otherwise they might cry to the Lord against you, and you would incur guilt.(C)
