Leviticus 19:32-34

Respect for the Elderly and the Alien

32
`At the presence of grey hairs thou dost rise up, and thou hast honoured the presence of an old man, and hast been afraid of thy God; I am Jehovah.
33
`And when a sojourner sojourneth with thee in your land, thou dost not oppress him;
34
as a native among you is the sojourner to you who is sojourning with you, and thou hast had love to him as to thyself, for sojourners ye have been in the land of Egypt; I am Jehovah your God.
