Exodus 22:21-27

21st Century King James Version

²¹ “Thou shalt neither vex a stranger nor oppress him, for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.

²² Ye shall not afflict any widow or fatherless child.

²³ If thou afflict them in any wise, and they cry at all unto Me, I will surely hear their cry;

²⁴ and My wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.

²⁵ “If thou lend money to any of My people who are poor among thee, thou shalt not be to him as a usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.

²⁶ If thou at all take thy neighbor’s raiment in pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him by the time the sun goeth down,

²⁷ for that is his only covering. It is his raiment for his skin. Wherein shall he sleep? And it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto Me, that I will hear, for I am gracious.
