THE MESSAGE
When you make a loan of any kind to your neighbor, don't enter his house to claim his pledge. Wait outside. Let the man to whom you made the pledge bring the pledge to you outside. And if he is destitute, don't use his cloak as a bedroll; return it to him at nightfall so that he can sleep in his cloak and bless you. In the sight of God , your God, that will be viewed as a righteous act.
New American Standard Bible (1995)
"When you make your neighbor a loan of any sort, you shall not enter his house to take his pledge.

So you shall remove the evil from among you. 8"Be careful during an outbreak of leprosy, that you diligently observe and do according to all that the Levitical priests teach you; just as I have commanded them, so you shall be careful to do. 9"Remember [with thoughtful concern] what the LORD your God did to Miriam on the road as you came out of Egypt. 10"When you lend your neighbor anything, you shall not go into his house to get his pledge (security deposit).11"You shall stand outside, and the man to whom you lend shall bring the pledge out to you. 12"If the man is poor, you shall not keep his pledge overnight. 13"You shall certainly restore the pledge (security deposit) to him at sunset, so that he may sleep in his garment and bless you; and it will be credited to you as righteousness (right standing) before the LORD your God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

When thou dost lend thy brother anything,.... Any sum of money he stands in need of, or demanded a debt of him, as Jarchi; money he is indebted to thee, which is the sense of the Septuagint version; and he is not able to pay it, but offers something: in pawn till he can pay it:

thou shall not go into his house to fetch his pledge; which would be an exercise of too much power and authority, to go into a neighbour's house, and take what was liked; and besides, as no doubt he would take the best, so he might take that which the poor man could not spare: and indeed, according to the Jewish canons k, he could not take any pledge at all, but with the knowledge, and by the leave, of the sanhedrim, or court of judicature.

k Misn. Bava Metzia, c. 9. sect. 13.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible
