출애굽기 23:6의 Musar

לֹ֥א תַטֶּ֛ה מִשְׁפַּ֥ט אֶבְיֹנְךָ֖ בְּרִיבֽוֹ׃

너는 가난한 자의 송사라고 공평치 않게 하지 말며

Shenei Luchot HaBerit

As there are 70 ways to explain the Torah, we are are permitted to approach these problems from a different angle. We will do so by referring to a different Midrash. Commenting on Song of Songs 4,8: תשורי מראש אמנה, Tanchuma Beshalach 10 states that the redemption of the Jews was triggered by G–d's knowledge that they would compose the song of gratitude and extol G–d's virtues as recorded in our portion. In turn the merit that enabled Israel to proclaim this song originally was Abraham's for he had expressed faith in G–d as reported in the Torah (Genesis 15,7) that he believed the promise that he would have children and that their children would inherit the land of Canaan.

Shenei Luchot HaBerit

לא תעשו עול במשפט במדה . According to ancient sources this prohibition at this point (19,35) is addressed to people who measure unfairly. People who do this contribute to destroying the universe. The person who does the measuring is called "judge". The Torah had already prohibited the perversion of justice when it said: לא תטה משפט, "Do not subvert justice, etc." (Exodus 23,6). The emphasis on the words לא תעשו, "do not engage in a tangible activity," suggests that the meaning here is that it is the making of changes which is illegal.
