Deuteronomy 24:12
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
If he is a poor man, you must not go to sleep with the security in your possession;
In context
10 When you lend anything to your neighbor, do not enter his house to collect security.
11 You are to stand outside while the man to whom you are lending brings the security out to you.
12 If he is a poor man, you must not go to sleep with the security in your possession;
13 be sure to return it to him by sunset, so that he may sleep in his own cloak and bless you, and this will be credited to you as righteousness before the LORD your God.
14 Do not oppress a hired hand who is poor and needy, whether he is a brother or a foreigner residing in one of your towns.
