Do not move the ancient boundary stone. Do not encroach on the fields of the fatherless:
KJV
Remove not the old landmark; and enter not into the fields of the fatherless:

Commentary
Remove not the old landmark,.... See Gill on
Pro 22:28
;
and enter not into the fields of the fatherless; to carry off the increase of them, to reap their wheat, or mow their grass, or turn in cattle to eat it; or to encroach upon them, take in any part of them, or join the whole to their own; for if there is a woe to them that lay field to field, much more to them that enter into and take the fields of the fatherless, and join them to their own,
Isa 5:8
.
