Exo 20:16:
Lev 19:11-12:
11 You all mustn’t steal[ref] or deceive, or defraud any fellow citizen,[ref] 12 and don’t use my name to seal a promise and then go ahead and ruin my reputation.[ref] I am Yahweh.
Deu 5:20:
Lev 19:15:
15 Don’t judge unfairly—showing partiality to the poor, or honouring those who are well-known—you must always judge your fellow citizens fairly.[ref]
Deu 22:1-4:
22 If you see someone else’s cow or sheep that has strayed away, don’t act as though you didn’t see it. Take it back to its owner.[ref] 2 However, if the owner doesn’t live near you, or if you don’t know who it is, then take the animal to your house. It can stay with you until the owner comes looking for it, then you must give it to them. 3 Similarly if it’s a donkey or clothing or anything else that someone’s lost, don’t pretend that you never saw it.
4 If you see someone else’s donkey or cow that’s fallen beside the road, don’t act as though you didn’t see it. You must try to help the owner to get the animal up.
Deu 16:19:
19 You mustn’t pervert justice or give favours. Don’t accept bribes because a bribe causes an otherwise wise person to ignore evil and misrepresents what innocent people say.[ref]
Exo 22:21:
21 You mustn’t disadvantage or oppress any foreigner staying in your country, because you were foreigners staying in the land of Mitsrayim (Egypt).[ref]
Lev 19:33-34:
33 ⇔Don’t take advantage of foreigners when they stay in your land[ref]—34 you all must treat foreigners the same as native-born Israelis and love them like you love yourselves, because you were all foreigners in Mitsrayim (Egypt). I am your god Yahweh.
Deu 24:17-18:
17 Don’t pervert justice if it involves foreigners or orphans, and don’t take a widow’s cloak as security for a loan.[ref] 18 Remember that you were a slave in Mitsrayim (Egypt) and your god Yahweh rescued you from there. That’s why I’m commanding you to do those things—to be considerate about helping other people who are in need.
27:19:
19 ‘Anyone who perverts justice for a foreigner or orphan or widow will be cursed.’[ref]
Then the people must reply, ‘Let it be so.’
