&#8220;Let me pass through your land; I will keep strictly to the roadway.<n id="1" /> I will not turn aside to the right or the left.

<p class="bodytext">You must not oppress a lowly and poor servant, whether one from among your fellow Israelites<n id="1" /> or from the resident foreigners who are living in your land and villages.<n id="2" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">If a fellow Israelite<n id="1" /> from one of your villages<n id="2" /> in the land that the <sc>Lordsc> your God is giving you should be poor, you must not harden your heart or be insensitive<n id="3" /> to his impoverished condition.<n id="4" />

There will never cease to be some poor people in the land; therefore, I am commanding you to make sure you open<n id="1" /> your hand to your fellow Israelites<n id="2" /> who are needy and poor in your land.p>
