New Testament

Exodus 22:26-31 English Standard Version (ESV)

26. If ever you take your neighbor’s cloak in pledge, you shall return it to him before the sun goes down,

27. for that is his only covering, and it is his cloak for his body; in what else shall he sleep? And if he cries to me, I will hear, for I am compassionate.

28. “You shall not revile God, nor curse a ruler of your people.

29. “You shall not delay to offer from the fullness of your harvest and from the outflow of your presses. The firstborn of your sons you shall give to me.

30. You shall do the same with your oxen and with your sheep: seven days it shall be with its mother; on the eighth day you shall give it to me.

31. “You shall be 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.
