King James Version (KJV)

Exodus 23:3

“Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause.”

Verse in context — Exodus 23

Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness.

Thou shalt not follow a multitude to [do] evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest [judgment]:

Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause.

If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again.

If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under his burden, and wouldest forbear to help him, thou shalt surely help with him.

God delivers Israel from Egypt, gives the Ten Commandments, and establishes His covenant with His people.
