Deuteronomy 22:2-12 –
If they do not live near you or if
you do not know who owns it, take it home with you and keep it until they come
looking for it. Then give it back. Do the same if you find
their donkey or cloak or anything else they have lost. Do not ignore it.
If you see your fellow Israelite’s donkey or ox fallen on the road, do not ignore
it. Help the owner get it to its feet. A woman must not wear men’s
clothing, nor a man wear women’s clothing, for the Lord your God detests anyone who does this.
If you come across a bird’s nest beside the road, either in a tree or on the
ground, and the mother is sitting on the young or on the eggs, do not take the
mother with the young. You may take the young, but be sure to let the mother go, so that it may go well with you and you
may have a long life. When you build a new house, make a parapet around
your roof so that you may not bring the guilt of bloodshed on your house if
someone falls from the roof. Do not plant two kinds of seed in your
vineyard; if you do, not only the crops you plant but also the fruit
of the vineyard will be defiled. Do not plow with an ox and a donkey yoked
together. Do not wear clothes of wool and linen woven together. Make
tassels on the four corners of the cloak you wear.

Egypt to be your God. I am the Lord your God.’”
