| 22. Formal Translation And when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not finish the edge of your field in your reaping, nor shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest. For the poor and the sojourner you shall leave them. I am the LORD your God {Yahweh Eloheikhem, Provider and Lawgiver}. |
| 22. Dynamic Translation When you harvest your land, do not harvest to the very edge of your field or gather the leftovers. Leave them for the poor and for the foreigner. I am the LORD your God {Yahweh Eloheikhem, Caring Sustainer}. |
