Deuteronomy 24:14-18
New International Version
Deuteronomy 24:14-18
New International Version
14 Do not take advantage of a hired worker who is poor and needy, whether that worker is a fellow Israelite or a foreigner residing in one of your towns.(A) 15 Pay them their wages each day before sunset, because they are poor(B) and are counting on it.(C) Otherwise they may cry to the Lord against you, and you will be guilty of sin.(D)
16 Parents are not to be put to death for their children, nor children put to death for their parents; each will die for their own sin.(E)
17 Do not deprive the foreigner or the fatherless(F) of justice,(G) or take the cloak of the widow as a pledge. 18 Remember that you were slaves in Egypt(H) and the Lord your God redeemed you from there. That is why I command you to do this.

King James Version
Deuteronomy 24:14-18
King James Version
14 Thou shalt not oppress an hired servant that is poor and needy, whether he be of thy brethren, or of thy strangers that are in thy land within thy gates:
15 At his day thou shalt give him his hire, neither shall the sun go down upon it; for he is poor, and setteth his heart upon it: lest he cry against thee unto the Lord, and it be sin unto thee.
16 The fathers shall not be put to death for the children, neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers: every man shall be put to death for his own sin.
17 Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the fatherless; nor take a widow's raiment to pledge:
18 But thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in Egypt, and the Lord thy God redeemed thee thence: therefore I command thee to do this thing.
