Exodus 22:15-27 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

15. But if the owner of it be with it, he shall not make it good: if it be a hired thing, it came for its hire.

16. And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife.

17. If her father utterly refuses to give her unto him, he shall pay money according to the dowry of virgins.

18. You shall not allow a witch to live.

19. Whosoever lies with an animal shall surely be put to death.

20. He that sacrifices unto any god, except unto the LORD only, he shall be utterly destroyed.

21. You shall neither wrong a stranger, nor oppress him: for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.

22. You shall not afflict any widow, or fatherless child.

23. If you afflict them in any way, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;

24. And my wrath shall grow hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.

25. If you lend money to any of my people who is poor among you, you shall not be to him as a lender, neither shall you charge him interest.

26. If you at all take your neighbor's clothing as pledge, you shall deliver it unto him by the time the sun goes down:

27. For that is his only covering, it is his clothing for his skin: in what shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he cries unto me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.
