Deuteronomy 22 · Grade 2

Be a Good Neighbor

Name Date

Read the Story

God said, If you see your neighbor's sheep or ox lost, do not hide. Bring it back to him. If you do not know who owns it, keep it safe until he comes.

If your neighbor's donkey falls down on the road, help him lift it up. Do the same for any lost thing you find.

If you find a bird's nest, you may take the eggs. But let the mother bird go. When you build a house, put a rail around the roof. Then no one will fall off.

Memory Verse

“You shall not see your brother’s ox or his sheep go astray and hide yourself from them. You shall surely bring them again to your brother.”

Deuteronomy 22:1 (WEB)
