Exegesis
The apodosis begins with the negator lo {לֹא | lō}, immediately preceding the Qal imperfect tonu {תוֹנוּ | tō-nû} ‘you shall mistreat,’ and the object pronoun oto {אֹתוֹ | ʾō-tō} ‘him’ marks the protected party. English shifts from Hebrew VSO order to SVO, inserts the indefinite article before sojourner/foreigner, and renders the Hebrew imperfect as English future in the formal and as an imperative prohibition in the dynamic, thereby preserving the conditional legal structure and emphasizing communal responsibility.
In context — Leviticus 19:33
And when a sojourner sojourns with you in your land, you shall not mistreat him.
