NETBible

“You must not wrong¹ a foreigner² nor oppress him, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.

NET Notes

¹tn Or “oppress.”

²tn Or “alien,” both here and in 23:9. This individual is a resident foreigner; he lives in the land but, aside from provisions such as this, might easily be without legal rights.
