Exodus 22:27 Context
25¶ If thou lend money to any of my people that is poore by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an vsurer, neither shalt thou lay vpon him vsurie. 26If thou at all take thy neighbors raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliuer it vnto him by that the sun goeth downe. 27For that is his couering onely, it is his raiment for his skinne: wherein shal he sleepe? and it shal come to passe, when he crieth vnto mee, that I will heare: for I am gracious. 28¶ Thou shalt not reuile the Gods, nor curse the ruler of thy people. 29¶ Thou shalt not delay to offer the first of thy ripe fruits, and of thy liquors: the first borne of thy sonnes shalt thou giue vnto me.
