**Sefaria Edition 2021, Translated by Rabbi Francis Nataf:**
He prohibited taking collateral from a widow - whether poor or rich - as it is stated (Deuteronomy 24:17), "you shall not take a widow’s garment in pawn." And the regulations of this commandment have already been explained in the ninth [chapter] of [Bava] Metzia. (See Parashat Ki Teitzeh; Mishneh Torah, Creditor and Debtor 3.)
