Thou shalt helpe him vp againe with it. 6 Thou shalt not ouerthrowe the right of thy poore in his sute. 7 Thou shalt keepe thee farre fro a false matter, and shalt not slaye the innocent and the righteous: for I will not iustifie a wicked man. 8 Thou shalt take no gift: for the gift blindeth the wise, and peruerteth the wordes of the righteous. 9 Thou shalt not oppresse a stranger: for ye knowe the heart of a stranger, seeing yee were strangers in the land of Egypt. 10 Moreouer, sixe yeres thou shalt sowe thy land, and gather the fruites thereof, 11 But the seuenth yeere thou shalt let it rest and lie still, that the poore of thy people may eat, and what they leaue, the beastes of the fielde shal eate.
