He eateth not upon\r\nthe mountains, and hath not set his eyes on the devices of the house\r\nof Israel, and will not defile his neighbour’s wife, and will not\r\napproach to a woman in her separation, and will not oppress a man,\r\nand will restore the debtor’s pledge, and will not take plunder: he\r\nwill give his bread to the hungry, and clothe the naked. His money he\r\nwill not give on usury, and will not take interest; and he will turn\r\naway his hand from wrong, and will execute righteous judgment between\r\na man and his neighbour. He has walked in my statutes, and kept my\r\njudgments to do them. This is a righteous man.
