Exodus 22:19-28 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

19. Whoever sacrifices to any god, except to the Lord alone, shall be put under the ban.

20. You shall not oppress or afflict a resident alien, for you were once aliens residing in the land of Egypt.

21. You shall not wrong any widow or orphan.

22. If ever you wrong them and they cry out to me, I will surely listen to their cry.

23. My wrath will flare up, and I will kill you with the sword; then your own wives will be widows, and your children orphans.

24. If you lend money to my people, the poor among you, you must not be like a money lender; you must not demand interest from them.

25. If you take your neighbor’s cloak as a pledge, you shall return it to him before sunset;

26. for this is his only covering; it is the cloak for his body. What will he sleep in? If he cries out to me, I will listen; for I am compassionate.

27. You shall not despise God, nor curse a leader of your people.

28. You shall not delay the offering of your harvest and your press. You shall give me the firstborn of your sons.
