New Testament

Exodus 23:3-10 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

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.

6. You shall not deviate in judgment of the poor.

7. You shall flee from lies. The innocent and the just you shall not kill. For I shun the impious.

8. Neither shall you accept bribes, which blind even the prudent and subvert the words of the just.

9. You shall not harass a sojourner, for you know the life of a newcomer. For you yourselves also were sojourners in the land of Egypt.

10. For six years, you shall sow your land and gather its produce.
