Legacy Standard Bible
18 But you shall remember that you were a slave in Egypt and that Yahweh your God redeemed you from there; therefore I am commanding you to do this thing.
19 “(A)When you reap your harvest in your field and have forgotten a sheaf in the field, you shall not go back to get it; it shall be (B)for the sojourner, for the [a]orphan, and for the widow, in order that Yahweh your God (C)may bless you in all the work of your hands. 20 (D)When you beat your olive tree, you shall not go over the boughs after you finish; it shall be (E)for the sojourner, for the [b]orphan, and for the widow.

New International Version
18 Remember that you were slaves in Egypt(A) and the Lord your God redeemed you from there. That is why I command you to do this.
19 When you are harvesting in your field and you overlook a sheaf, do not go back to get it.(B) Leave it for the foreigner,(C) the fatherless and the widow,(D) so that the Lord your God may bless(E) you in all the work of your hands. 20 When you beat the olives from your trees, do not go over the branches a second time.(F) Leave what remains for the foreigner, the fatherless and the widow.
