Exodus 22:19-31 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

19. `Whoever lieth with a beast is certainly put to death.

20. `He who is sacrificing to a god, save to Jehovah alone, is devoted.

21. `And a sojourner thou dost not oppress, nor crush him, for sojourners ye have been in the land of Egypt.

22. `Any widow or orphan ye do not afflict;

23. if thou dost really afflict him, surely if he at all cry unto Me, I certainly hear his cry;

24. and Mine anger hath burned, and I have slain you by the sword, and your wives have been widows, and your sons orphans.

25. `If thou dost lend My poor people with thee money, thou art not to him as a usurer; thou dost not lay on him usury;

26. if thou dost at all take in pledge the garment of thy neighbour, during the going in of the sun thou dost return it to him:

27. for it alone is his covering, it [is] his garment for his skin; wherein doth he lie down? and it hath come to pass, when he doth cry unto Me, that I have heard, for I [am] gracious.

28. `God thou dost not revile, and a prince among thy people thou dost not curse.

29. `Thy fulness and thy liquids thou dost not delay; the first-born of thy sons thou dost give to Me;

30. so thou dost to thine ox, to thy sheep; seven days it is with its dam, on the eighth day thou dost give it to Me.

31. `And ye are holy men to Me, and flesh torn in the field ye do not eat, to a dog ye do cast it.
