4 Se encontrares o boi de teu inimigo ou seu asno extraviado, traze-o de volta.

5 Se vires o asno do que te aborrece caído debaixo de sua carga, lhe deixarás então desamparado? Sem falta ajudarás com ele a levantá-lo.

7 De palavra de mentira te afastarás, e não matarás ao inocente e justo; porque eu não justificarei ao ímpio.
