1שלא להונות הגר בממון - שנמנענו שלא להונות הגר בממון, שאם יהיה לנו עמו משא ומתן שלא להונות אותו, שנאמר (שמות כב כ) ולא תלחצנו, ואמרו במכלתא (שם) לא תלחצנו בממונו. וזה הלאו נוסף על הלאו שיכללהו עם ישראל כלם, שהם בלאו דאונאת ממון, ונזהרו עליו בדברים ובממון מן הטעם שכתבנו כל משפטיה במצוה הקודמת לזו. ובלאו דאונאת ממון בישראל נכתב קצת פרטי ההונאה בעזרת השם (שם).
To not oppress the convert regarding money: That we have been prevented to not oppress the convert regarding money — that if we have give and take (business matters) with him, to not oppress him — as it is stated (Exodus 22:20), “you shall not pressure him.” And they said in the Mekhilta DeRabbi Yishmael 22:2, “‘You shall not pressure him’ is regarding money.” And this negative commandment is in addition to the negative commandment in which he is included with all of Israel, as they are [covered] by the [that] negative commandment of monetary oppression. And they are warned about him [both] regarding words and regarding money, due to the reason that we have written. All of its statutes are in the commandment that preceded this (Sefer HaChinukh 63). And in the negative commandment of monetary oppression of Israel (Sefer HaChinukh 337), we will write a few of the details of fraud, with God’s help. (See Tur, Choshen Mishpat 307.)
