10If thy neighbor owe thee a debt, any debt whatsoever, thou shalt not go into his house to take his pledge:
11thou shalt stand without, and the man who is in thy debt shall bring the pledge out to thee.
— Deuteronomy 24:12 —
13Thou shalt surely restore his pledge at sunset, and he shall sleep in his garment, and he shall bless thee; and it shall be mercy to thee before the Lord thy God.
14Thou shalt not unjustly withhold the wages of the poor and needy of thy brethren, or of the strangers who are in thy cities.
