THE MESSAGE
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)
"When you make your neighbor a loan of any sort, you shall not enter his house to take his pledge.

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.
