You shall not defraud your neighbor, neither rob him: the wages of him that is hired shall not abide with you all night until the morning.
Read Chapter 19

Ambrose of Milan

AD 397
Let no one deny the hireling the wage he is owed, since we too are hirelings of our God, and from him we look forward to the reward of our labor.

You shall not defraud, as the law says, the hireling of his pay. ()..
