When thou lendest thy neighbour a loan of anything, thou shalt not enter into his house to secure his pledge:

outside, shalt thou stand, and the man to whom thou art lending, shall bring forth unto thee his pledge outside,

And, if he be a poor man, thou shalt not sleep in his pledge:

thou shalt, restore, to him the pledge at the going in of the sun, so shall he sleep in his own mantle, and bless thee, - and, unto thee, shall it be righteous-ness before Yahweh thy God.

Thou shalt not oppress a hired servant that is poor and needy, - of thy brethren or of thy sojourners that are in thy land, within thy gates;

for his day, shalt thou give his hire neither shall the sun, go in upon it, for, poor, he is, and, unto it, is he lifting up his soul, - lest he cry out against thee, unto Yahweh, and it be, in thee a sin.
