14 Thou shalt not defraud the hired servant which is needy and poor, neither of thy brethren, nor of the stranger which is in thy land within thy gates. 15 Thou shalt give him his hire for his day, before the sun goeth down: for he is poor, and therewith sustaineth he his life. Least he cry against thee unto the Lord, and it be sin unto thee. 16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children die for the fathers, but every man shall be put to death for his own sin. 17 Thou shalt not wrest the right of the stranger, nor of the fatherless: neither shalt thou take the widows raiment to pledge. 18 But thou shalt remember that thou wast a servant in Egypt, and that the Lord thy God delivered thee thence. Therefore I command thee to do this thing.

Therefore I commaunde thee to doe this thing.
