When you make a loan of any kind to your neighbor, don't enter his house to claim his pledge. Wait outside. Let the man to whom you made the pledge bring the pledge to you outside. And if he is destitute, don't use his cloak as a bedroll; return it to him at nightfall so that he can sleep in his cloak and bless you. In the sight of God , your God, that will be viewed as a righteous act.
New American Standard Bible (1995)

Contextual Overview

5 and the last husband should hate her, and write for her a bill of divorcement; and should give it into her hands, and send her away out of his house, and the last husband should die, who took her to himself for a wife; 7 And if any one should have recently taken a wife, he shall not go out to war, neither shall any thing be laid upon him; he shall be free in his house; for one year he shall cheer his wife whom he has taken. 8 Thou shalt not take for a pledge the under millstone, nor the upper millstone; for he who does so takes life for a pledge. 9 And if a man should be caught stealing one of his brethren of the children of Israel, and having overcome him he should sell him, that thief shall die; so shalt thou remove that evil one from yourselves. 10 Take heed to thyself in regard of the plague of leprosy: thou shalt take great heed to do according to all the law, which the priests the Levites shall report to you; take heed to do, as I have charged you. 11 Remember all that the Lord thy God did to Mariam in the way, when ye were going out of Egypt. 12 If thy neighbour owe thee a debt, any debt whatsoever, thou shalt not go into his house to take his pledge: 13 thou shalt stand without, and the man who is in thy debt shall bring the pledge out to thee.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

When thou dost lend thy brother anything,.... Any sum of money he stands in need of, or demanded a debt of him, as Jarchi; money he is indebted to thee, which is the sense of the Septuagint version; and he is not able to pay it, but offers something: in pawn till he can pay it:

thou shall not go into his house to fetch his pledge; which would be an exercise of too much power and authority, to go into a neighbour's house, and take what was liked; and besides, as no doubt he would take the best, so he might take that which the poor man could not spare: and indeed, according to the Jewish canons k, he could not take any pledge at all, but with the knowledge, and by the leave, of the sanhedrim, or court of judicature.

k Misn. Bava Metzia, c. 9. sect. 13.
