Lexham English Bible

14 “You shall not exploit a hired worker, who is needy and poor, from among your fellow men or from among your aliens[d] who are in your land and in your towns.[e] 15 On his day you shall give his wage, and the sun shall not go down,[f] because he is poor and his life depends on it;[g] do this so that he does not cry out against you to Yahweh, and you incur guilt.[h]
