8In connection with the leper's disease, take care to keep and do every detail of the teaching of the priests, the Levites: as I gave them orders, so you are to do.
9Keep in mind what the Lord your God did to Miriam on the way, when you came out of Egypt.
10If you let your brother have the use of anything which is yours, do not go into his house and take anything of his as a sign of his debt;
11But keep outside till he comes out and gives it to you.
12If he is a poor man, do not keep his property all night;
13But be certain to give it back to him when the sun goes down, so that he may have his clothing for sleeping in, and will give you his blessing: and this will be put to your account as righteousness before the Lord your God.
14Do not be hard on a servant who is poor and in need, if he is one of your countrymen or a man from another nation living with you in your land.
