Exodus 22:25-31 Amplified Bible (AMP)

25. If you lend money to any of My people with you who is poor, you shall not be to him as a creditor, neither shall you require interest from him.

26. If you ever take your neighbor's garment in pledge, you shall give it back to him before the sun goes down;

27. For that is his only covering, his clothing for his body. In what shall he sleep? When he cries to Me, I will hear, for I am gracious and merciful.

28. You shall not revile God [the judges as His agents] or esteem lightly or curse a ruler of your people.

29. You shall not delay to bring to Me from the fullness [of your harvested grain] and the outflow [of your grape juice and olive oil]; give Me the firstborn of your sons [or redeem them]. [Exod. 34:19, 20.]

30. Likewise shall you do with your oxen and your sheep. Seven days the firstborn [beast] shall be with its mother; on the eighth day you shall give it to Me.

31. And you shall be holy men [consecrated] to Me; therefore you shall not eat any flesh that is torn by beasts in the field; you shall throw it to the dogs.
