22 Do not ill-treat widows or orphans.
23 If you do, they will beg for my help, and I will come to their rescue.
24 In fact, I will get so angry that I will kill your men and make widows of their wives and orphans of their children.
25 Don't charge interest when you lend money to any of my people who are in need.
26 Before sunset you must return any coat taken as security for a loan,
27 because that is the only cover the poor have when they sleep at night. I am a merciful God, and when they call out to me, I will come to help them.
28 Don't speak evil of me or of the ruler of your people.
