Provide justice for the needy and the fatherless; uphold the rights of the oppressed and the destitute.

Rescue the poor and needy; save them from the hand of the wicked."

There was a widespread outcry from the people and their wives against their Jewish countrymen.
2
Some were saying, "We, our sons, and our daughters are numerous. Let us get grain so that we can eat and live."
3
Others were saying, "We are mortgaging our fields, vineyards, and homes to get grain during the famine."
4
Still others were saying, "We have borrowed money to pay the king's tax on our fields and vineyards.
5
We and our children are [just] like our countrymen and their children, yet we are subjecting our sons and daughters to slavery. Some of our daughters are already enslaved, but we are powerless because our fields and vineyards belong to others."
6
I became extremely angry when I heard their outcry and these complaints.
7
After seriously considering the matter, I accused the nobles and officials, saying to them, "Each of you is charging his countrymen interest." So I called a large assembly against them
8
and said, "We have done our best to buy back our Jewish countrymen who were sold to foreigners, but now you sell your own countrymen, and we have to buy them back." They remained silent and could not say a word.
9
Then I said, "What you are doing isn't right. Shouldn't you walk in the fear of our God [and not invite] the reproach of our foreign enemies?
10
Even I, as well as my brothers and my servants, have been lending them money and grain. Please, let us stop charging this interest.
11
Return their fields, vineyards, olive groves, and houses to them immediately, along with the percentage of the money, grain, new wine, and olive oil that you have been assessing them."
12
They responded: "We will return [these things] and require nothing more from them. We will do as you say." So I summoned the priests and made everyone take an oath to do this.
13
I also shook the folds of my robe and said, "May God likewise shake from his house and property everyone who doesn't keep this promise. May he be shaken out and have nothing!" The whole assembly said, " Amen," and they praised the LORD. Then the people did as they had promised.

Therefore, it is already a total defeat for you that you have lawsuits against one another. Why not rather put up with injustice? Why not rather be cheated?

The wicked displace boundary markers. They steal a flock and provide pasture for [it].
3
They drive away the donkeys [owned] by the fatherless and take the widow's ox as collateral.
4
They push the needy off the road; the poor of the land are forced into hiding.
5
Like wild donkeys in the desert, the poor go out to their task of foraging for food; the wilderness provides nourishment for their children.
6
They gather their fodder in the field and glean the vineyards of the wicked.
7
Without clothing, they spend the night naked, having no covering against the cold.
8
Drenched by mountain rains, they huddle against the rocks, shelterless.
9
The fatherless infant is snatched from the breast; the nursing child of the poor is seized as collateral.
10
Without clothing, they wander about naked. They carry sheaves but go hungry.
11
They crush olives in their presses; they tread the winepresses, but go thirsty.
12
From the city, men groan; the mortally wounded cry for help, yet God pays no attention to this crime.
