New Testament

Exodus 23:1-5 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

1. "You shall not accept a lying voice. Neither shall you join your hand so as to give false testimony on behalf on the impious.

2. You shall not follow the crowd in doing evil. Neither shall you go astray in judgment, by agreeing with the majority opinion, apart from the truth.

3. Likewise, you shall not show pity in judgment of the poor.

4. If you come across an ox or a donkey of your enemy, which has gone astray, lead it back to him.

5. If you see the donkey of one who hates you, fallen under its burden, you shall not pass by without lifting it up with him.
