10. If a man deliver unto his neighbour an ass, or an ox, or a sheep, or any beast, to keep; and it die, or be hurt, or driven away, no man seeing it:
  
11. Then shall an oath of the LORD be between them both, that he has not put his hand unto his neighbour's goods; and the owner of it shall accept thereof, and he shall not make it good.
  
12. And if it be stolen from him, he shall make restitution unto the owner thereof.

14. And if a man borrow ought of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof being not with it, he shall surely make it good.

16. And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely secure her to be his wife.

23. If you afflict them in any way, and they cry at all unto me, I will surely hear their cry;
  
24. And my wrath shall wax hot, and I will kill you with the sword; and your wives shall be widows, and your children fatherless.
  
25. If you lend money to any of my people that is poor by you, you shall not be to him as an usurer, neither shall you lay upon him interest.
  
26. If you at all take your neighbour's raiment to pledge, you shall deliver it unto him by that the sun goes down:
  
27. For that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he cries unto me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.
  
28. You shall not revile the gods, nor curse the ruler of your people.
  
29. You shall not delay to offer the first of your ripe fruits, and of your liquors: the firstborn of your sons shall you give unto me.
  
30. Likewise shall you do with yours oxen, and with your sheep: seven days it shall be with his dam; on the eighth day you shall give it me.
  
31. And all of you shall be holy men unto me: neither shall all of you eat any flesh that is torn of beasts in the field; all of you shall cast it to the dogs.
