When thou cuttest down thine harvest in thy field, and hast forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hands.

20

When thou beatest thine olive tree, thou shalt not go over the boughs again: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.

21

When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not glean

22

And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
