Verse 1 is found in chapter 22 of Deuteronomy. Several laws regulate responsibilities toward animals, lost property, household safety, and clothing. The common concern is to prevent indifference toward the needs or risks of one’s neighbor. The principle of loving one’s neighbor is translated here into concrete actions of care, prevention, and respect for communal order.

Wenn du deines Bruders Ochsen oder Schaf siehst irregehen, so sollst du dich nicht entziehen von ihnen, sondern sollst sie wieder zu deinem Bruder führen.
No verás el buey de tu hermano, o su cordero, perdidos, y te retirarás de ellos: precisamente los volverás a tu hermano.
«Si ves extraviados el buey de tu hermano o su animal del rebaño, no te desentenderás de ellos. Se los devolverás sin falta a tu hermano.
Si tu vois s'égarer le boeuf ou la brebis de ton frère, tu ne t'en détourneras point, tu les ramèneras à ton frère.
SE tu vedi smarriti il bue o la pecora del tuo fratello, non ritrarti indietro da essi; del tutto riconducili al tuo fratello.
VENDO extraviado o boi ou ovelha de teu irmão, não te desviarás deles; restituí-los-ás sem falta a teu irmão.
「你若看見弟兄的牛或羊迷了路,不可避開牠們,總要把牠們牽回來交給你的弟兄。
