Exodus 23:8-11 English Standard Version (ESV)

8. And you shall take no bribe, for a bribe blinds the clear-sighted and subverts the cause of those who are in the right.

9. “You shall not oppress a sojourner. You know the heart of a sojourner, for you were sojourners in the land of Egypt.

10. “For six years you shall sow your land and gather in its yield,

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. You shall do likewise with your vineyard, and with your olive orchard.
