19:13

Thou shalt not defraud
<06231> (8799)

thy neighbour
<07453>_,

neither rob
<01497> (8799)

[him]: the wages
<06468>

of him that is hired
<07916>

shall not abide
<03885> (8799)

with thee all night until the morning
<01242>_.

Leviticus 25:39-46

25:39

And if thy brother
<0251>

[that dwelleth] by thee be waxen poor
<04134> (8799)_,

and be sold
<04376> (8738)

unto thee; thou shalt not compel
<05647> (8799)

him to serve
<05656>

as a bondservant
<05650>_:

{compel...: Heb. serve thyself with him with the service, etc}

25:40

[But] as an hired servant
<07916>_,

[and] as a sojourner
<08453>_,

he shall be with thee, [and] shall serve
<05647> (8799)

thee unto the year
<08141>

of jubile
<03104>_:

25:41

And [then] shall he depart
<03318> (8804)

from thee, [both] he and his children
<01121>

with him, and shall return
<07725> (8804)

unto his own family
<04940>_,

and unto the possession
<0272>

of his fathers
<01>

shall he return
<07725> (8799)_.

25:42

For they [are] my servants
<05650>_,

which I brought forth
<03318> (8689)

out of the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_:

they shall not be sold
<04376> (8735)

as
<04466>

bondmen
<05650>_.

{as...: Heb. with the sale of a bondman}

25:43

Thou shalt not rule
<07287> (8799)

over him with rigour
<06531>_;

but shalt fear
<03372> (8804)

thy God
<0430>_.

25:44

Both thy bondmen
<05650>_,

and thy bondmaids
<0519>_,

which thou shalt have, [shall be] of the heathen
<01471>

that are round about
<05439>

you; of them shall ye buy
<07069> (8799)

bondmen
<05650>

and bondmaids
<0519>_.

25:45

Moreover of the children
<01121>

of the strangers
<08453>

that do sojourn
<01481> (8802)

among you, of them shall ye buy
<07069> (8799)_,

and of their families
<04940>

that [are] with you, which they begat
<03205> (8689)

in your land
<0776>_:

and they shall be your possession
<0272>_.

25:46

And ye shall take them as an inheritance
<05157> (8694)

for your children
<01121>

after
<0310>

you, to inherit
<03423> (8800)

[them for] a possession
<0272>_;

they shall be your bondmen
<05647> (8799)

for ever
<05769>_:

but over your brethren
<0251>

the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

ye shall not rule
<07287> (8799)

one
<0376>

over another
<0251>

with rigour
<06531>_.

{they...: Heb. ye shall serve yourselves with them}

Deuteronomy 15:11-16

15:11

For the poor
<034>

shall never cease
<02308> (8799)

out of
<07130>

the land
<0776>_:

therefore I command
<06680> (8764)

thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thou shalt open
<06605> (8799)

thine hand
<03027>

wide
<06605> (8800)

unto thy brother
<0251>_,

to thy poor
<06041>_,

and to thy needy
<034>_,

in thy land
<0776>_.

15:12

[And] if thy brother
<0251>_,

an Hebrew man
<05680>_,

or an Hebrew woman
<05680>_,

be sold
<04376> (8735)

unto thee, and serve
<05647> (8804)

thee six
<08337>

years
<08141>_;

then in the seventh
<07637>

year
<08141>

thou shalt let him go
<07971> (8762)

free
<02670>

from thee.

15:13

And when thou sendest
<07971> (8762)

him out free
<02670>

from thee, thou shalt not let him go away
<07971> (8762)

empty
<07387>_:

15:14

Thou shalt furnish
<06059> (8686)

him liberally
<06059> (8687)

out of thy flock
<06629>_,

and out of thy floor
<01637>_,

and out of thy winepress
<03342>_:

[of that] wherewith the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

hath blessed
<01288> (8765)

thee thou shalt give
<05414> (8799)

unto him.

15:15

And thou shalt remember
<02142> (8804)

that thou wast a bondman
<05650>

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

and the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

redeemed
<06299> (8799)

thee: therefore I command
<06680> (8764)

thee this thing
<01697>

to day
<03117>_.

15:16

And it shall be, if he say
<0559> (8799)

unto thee, I will not go away
<03318> (8799)

from thee; because he loveth
<0157> (8804)

thee and thine house
<01004>_,

because he is well
<02895> (8804)

with thee;

Deuteronomy 24:14-15

24:14

Thou shalt not oppress
<06231> (8799)

an hired servant
<07916>

[that is] poor
<06041>

and needy
<034>_,

[whether he be] of thy brethren
<0251>_,

or of thy strangers
<01616>

that [are] in thy land
<0776>

within thy gates
<08179>_:

24:15

At his day
<03117>

thou shalt give
<05414> (8799)

[him] his hire
<07939>_,

neither shall the sun
<08121>

go down
<0935> (8799)

upon it; for he [is] poor
<06041>_,

and setteth
<05375> (8802)

his heart
<05315>

upon it: lest he cry
<07121> (8799)

against thee unto the LORD
<03068>_,

and it be sin
<02399>

unto thee. {setteth...: Heb. lifteth his soul unto it}

Nehemiah 5:5

5:5

Yet now our flesh
<01320>

[is] as the flesh
<01320>

of our brethren
<0251>_,

our children
<01121>

as their children
<01121>_:

and, lo, we bring into bondage
<03533> (8802)

our sons
<01121>

and our daughters
<01323>

to be servants
<05650>_,

and [some] of our daughters
<01323>

are
<03426>

brought unto bondage
<03533> (8737)

[already]: neither [is it] in our power
<0410> <03027>

[to redeem them]; for other men
<0312>

have our lands
<07704>

and vineyards
<03754>_.

Nehemiah 5:8-9

5:8

And I said
<0559> (8799)

unto them, We after our ability
<01767>

have redeemed
<07069> (8804)

our brethren
<0251>

the Jews
<03064>_,

which were sold
<04376> (8737)

unto the heathen
<01471>_;

and will ye even sell
<04376> (8799)

your brethren
<0251>_?

or shall they be sold
<04376> (8738)

unto us? Then held they their peace
<02790> (8686)_,

and found
<04672> (8804)

nothing
<01697>

[to answer].

5:9

Also I said
<0559> (8799)_,

It [is] not good
<02896>

that
<01697>

ye do
<06213> (8802)_:

ought ye not to walk
<03212> (8799)

in the fear
<03374>

of our God
<0430>

because of the reproach
<02781>

of the heathen
<01471>

our enemies
<0341> (8802)_?

24:10

They cause [him] to go
<01980> (8765)

naked
<06174>

without clothing
<03830>_,

and they take away
<05375> (8804)

the sheaf
<06016>

[from] the hungry
<07457>_;

24:11

[Which] make oil
<06671> (8686)

within
<0996>

their walls
<07791>_,

[and] tread
<01869> (8804)

[their] winepresses
<03342>_,

and suffer thirst
<06770> (8799)_.

24:12

Men
<04962>

groan
<05008> (8799)

from out of the city
<05892>_,

and the soul
<05315>

of the wounded
<02491>

crieth out
<07768> (8762)_:

yet God
<0433>

layeth
<07760> (8799)

not folly
<08604>

[to them].

Job 31:13-15

31:13

If I did despise
<03988> (8799)

the cause
<04941>

of my manservant
<05650>

or of my maidservant
<0519>_,

when they contended
<07379>

with me;

31:14

What then shall I do
<06213> (8799)

when God
<0410>

riseth up
<06965> (8799)_?

and when he visiteth
<06485> (8799)_,

what shall I answer
<07725> (8686)

him?

31:15

Did not he that made
<06213> (8802)

me in the womb
<0990>

make
<06213> (8804)

him? and did not one
<0259>

fashion
<03559> (8787)

us in the womb
<07358>_?

{did not one...: or, did he not fashion us in one womb?}

Isaiah 47:6

47:6

I was wroth
<07107> (8804)

with my people
<05971>_,

I have polluted
<02490> (8765)

mine inheritance
<05159>_,

and given
<05414> (8799)

them into thine hand
<03027>_:

thou didst shew
<07760> (8804)

them no mercy
<07356>_;

upon the ancient
<02205>

hast thou very
<03966>

heavily
<03513> (8689)

laid thy yoke
<05923>_.

Isaiah 58:3-6

58:3

Wherefore have we fasted
<06684> (8804)_,

[say they], and thou seest
<07200> (8804)

not? [wherefore] have we afflicted
<06031> (8765)

our soul
<05315>_,

and thou takest no knowledge
<03045> (8799)_?

Behold, in the day
<03117>

of your fast
<06685>

ye find
<04672> (8799)

pleasure
<02656>_,

and exact
<05065> (8799)

all your labours
<06092>_.

{labours: or, things wherewith ye grieve others: Heb. griefs}

58:4

Behold, ye fast
<06684> (8799)

for strife
<07379>

and debate
<04683>_,

and to smite
<05221> (8687)

with the fist
<0106>

of wickedness
<07562>_:

ye shall not fast
<06684> (8799)

as [ye do this] day
<03117>_,

to make your voice
<06963>

to be heard
<08085> (8687)

on high
<04791>_.

{ye shall...: or, ye fast not as this day}

58:5

Is it such a fast
<06685>

that I have chosen
<0977> (8799)_?

a day
<03117>

for a man
<0120>

to afflict
<06031> (8763)

his soul
<05315>_?

[is it] to bow down
<03721> (8800)

his head
<07218>

as a bulrush
<0100>_,

and to spread
<03331> (8686)

sackcloth
<08242>

and ashes
<0665>

[under him]? wilt thou call
<07121> (8799)

this
<02088>

a fast
<06685>_,

and an acceptable
<07522>

day
<03117>

to the LORD
<03068>_?

{a day...: or, to afflict his soul for a day?}

58:6

[Is] not this the fast
<06685>

that I have chosen
<0977> (8799)_?

to loose
<06605> (8763)

the bands
<02784>

of wickedness
<07562>_,

to undo
<05425> (8687)

the heavy
<04133>

burdens
<092>_,

and to let the oppressed
<07533> (8803)

go
<07971> (8763)

free
<02670>_,

and that ye break
<05423> (8762)

every yoke
<04133>_?

{the heavy...: Heb. the bundles of the yoke} {oppressed: Heb. broken}

8:4

Hear
<08085> (8798)

this, O ye that swallow up
<07602> (8802)

<034>_,

even to make
<07673> (0)

the poor
<06041> (8675) <06035>

of the land
<0776>

to fail
<07673> (8687)_,

8:5

Saying
<0559> (8800)_,

When will the new moon
<02320>

be gone
<05674> (8799)_,

that we may sell
<07666> (8686)

corn
<07668>_?

and the sabbath
<07676>_,

that we may set forth
<06605> (8799)

wheat
<01250>_,

making the ephah
<0374>

small
<06994> (8687)_,

and the shekel
<08255>

great
<01431> (8687)_,

and falsifying
<05791> (8763)

the balances
<03976>

by deceit
<04820>_?

{new...: or, month} {set...: Heb. open} {falsifying...: Heb. perverting the balances of deceit}

8:6

That we may buy
<07069> (8800)

the poor
<01800>

for silver

<034>

for a pair of shoes

[yea], and sell

the refuse

of the wheat
<01250>_?

Surely I will never
<05331>

forget

any of their works
<04639>_.

Malachi 3:5

3:5

And I will come near
<07126> (8804)

to you to judgment

witness
<05707>

against the sorcerers
<03784> (8764)_,

and against the adulterers
<05003> (8764)_,

and against false
<08267>

swearers
<07650> (8737)_,

and against those that oppress

the hireling
<07916>

in [his] wages

the widow

not me, saith

of hosts
