The Book of Deuteronomy 24

24 When a man takes a wife and marries her, and it happens, if she finds no favor in his eyes because he has found an indecent thing in her, then he shall write for her a letter of divorce and put it into her hand and send her out from his house. 2 And she shall go out from his house, and she may go and be another man’s. 3 And if the latter husband hates her and writes her a letter of divorce and puts it into her hand and sends her out from his house; or if the latter husband dies, who took her as his wife, 4 her first husband, who had sent her away, shall not be able to take her again to be his wife after she has become impure; for it is an abomination before the face of Yahweh, and you shall not make the land sinful, which Yahweh your God is giving to you as an inheritance.

5 When a man takes a new wife, he shall not go out with the army, neither shall he pass on himself any matter; he shall be free for his house one year and will cheer his wife whom he has taken.

6 He shall not impound a mill or an upper millstone, for it is a life for a pledge.

7 If a man is found stealing a life from his brothers from the sons of Israel, and mistreats him and sells him, then that thief shall die; and you shall remove the evil from among you.

8 Guard against a plague of skin disease, to firmly keep and do according to all that the priests, the Levites, teach you; as I commanded them, you shall keep doing. 9 Remember what Yahweh your God did to Miriam on the way when you were coming out from Egypt.

10 When you lend to your neighbor any loan, you shall not go into his house to collect his pledge. 11 You shall stand outside, and the man whom you have lent to shall bring the pledge outside to you. 12 And if he is a poor man, you shall not lie asleep with his pledge. 13 You shall certainly restore to him the pledge as the sun goes down, and he will sleep in his cloak and bless you; and it will be righteousness for you before the face of Yahweh your God.

14 You shall not oppress a poor and needy hired man from your brothers or from the foreigners who are in your land, within your gates. 15 In his day you shall give his wage, and the sun shall not go down on it, for he is poor and he lifts up his life to it. Then he will not call against you to Yahweh and have it be for you a sin.

16 Fathers shall not be put to death on account of sons, and sons shall not be put to death on account of fathers. A man shall be put to death for his sin.

17 You shall not twist the judgment of the foreigner or the fatherless, and you shall not take for a pledge the garment of a widow. 18 And you shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt, and Yahweh your God redeemed you from there. Therefore, I command you to do this word.

19 When you reap your harvest in your field, and you forget a sheaf in the field, you shall not go back to take it; it shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, or for the widow, so that Yahweh your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. 20 When you beat your olive tree, you shall not go over the branches after yourself; it shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, or for the widow. 21 When you gather your vineyard, you shall not glean after yourself. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, or for the widow. 22 And you shall remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt. Therefore, I command you to do this word.
