4 a“If you meet your enemy’s ox or his donkey going astray, you shall surely bring it back to him again.
5 aIf you see the donkey of one who hates you lying under its burden, and you would refrain from helping it, you shall surely help him with it.
6 a“You shall not pervert the judgment of your poor in his dispute.
7 aKeep yourself far from a false matter; bdo not kill the innocent and righteous. For cI will not justify the wicked.
8 And ayou bshall take no bribe, for a bribe blinds the discerning and perverts the words of the righteous.
9 “Also you shall not oppress a1 stranger, for you know the heart of a stranger, because you were strangers in the land of Egypt.
The Law of Sabbaths
10 a“Six years you shall sow your land and gather in its produce,
11 but the seventh year you shall let it rest and lie fallow, that the poor of your people may eat; and what they leave, the beasts of the field may eat. In like manner you shall do with your vineyard and your1 olive grove.
