²⁰If anyone sacrifices to any god other than the LORD alone, he must be set apart for destruction.

²¹You must not exploit or oppress a foreign resident, for you yourselves were foreigners in the land of Egypt.

²²You must not mistreat any widow or orphan.

²³If you do mistreat them, and they cry out to Me in distress, I will surely hear their cry.

²⁴My anger will be kindled, and I will kill you with the sword; then your wives will become widows and your children will be fatherless.
