Exodus 22:28 in context

  1. 26If thou at all take thy neighbor’s garment to pledge, thou shalt restore it unto him before the sun goeth down:
  2. 27for that is his only covering, it is his garment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.
  3. 28Thou shalt not revile God, nor curse a ruler of thy people.
  4. 29Thou shalt not delay to offer of thy harvest, and of the outflow of thy presses. The first-born of thy sons shalt thou give unto me.
  5. 30Likewise shalt thou do with thine oxen, and with thy sheep: seven days it shall be with its dam; on the eighth day thou shalt give it me.
