Exodus 22:25-31 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

25. “ ‘If you lend money to my people, to the needy with you, you will not be to him as a creditor; you will not charge him interest.

26. If indeed you require the cloak of your neighbor as a pledge, you will return it to him at sundown,

27. because it is his only garment; it is his cloak for his skin. In what will he sleep? And when he cries out to me, I will hear, because I am gracious.

28. “ ‘You will not curse God, and you will not curse a leader among your people.

29. “ ‘You will not delay the fullness of your harvest and the juice from your press; you will give me the firstborn of your sons.

30. You will do likewise for your ox and for your sheep and goats; seven days it will be with its mother; on the eighth, you will give it to me.

31. And you will be men of holiness for me; and you will not eat meat from a carcass mangled in the field; you will throw it to the dog.
