Remember that you were a slave in Egypt

14 Thou shalt not oppress a hired servant that is poor and needy
, whether he be of thy brethren,
or of thy strangers that are
in thy land within thy gatess.

15. In the same day thou shalt give him his hire,
neither shall the sun go down upon it;
for he is poor, and setteth his heart upon it:
lest he cry against thee
unto the LORD and it be sin in theee.

16. The fathers shall not be put to death for the children,
neither shall the children be put to death for the fathers;
every man shall be put to death for his own sinn.

17. Thou shalt not pervert the justice
due to the stranger, or to the fatherless;
nor take the widow's raiment to pledgee.

18. But thou shalt remember
that thou wast a bondman in Egypt,
and the LORD thy God redeemed thee thence;
therefore I command thee to do this thingg.

[Devarim 24:14–18]
