שֶׁלֹּא לָקַחַת שִׁבֳּלִים הַנּוֹפְלִים בִּשְׁעַת הַקָּצִיר – שֶׁלֹּא לָקַחַת שִׁבֳּלִים הַנּוֹפְלוֹת בִּשְׁעַת הַקָּצִיר, אֲבָל נַעֲזֹב אוֹתָם לָעֲנִיִּים, שֶׁנֶּאֱמַר (ויקרא יט ט) וְלֶקֶט קְצִירְךָ לֹא תְלַקֵּט, וְזֶה גַּם כֵּן נִתָּק לַעֲשֵׂה כְּמוֹ שֶׁבֵּאַרְנוּ בְּפֵאָה (מצוה ריז). וְכָל עִנְיַן מִצְוָה זוֹ גַּם כֵּן תִּמְצָא לְמַעְלָה בְּמִצְוַת עֲשֵׂה שֶׁל לֶקֶט (מצוה ריח).
To not take the sheaves that fall at the time of the harvesting: To not take the sheaves that fall at the time of the harvesting, but [rather] we leave them for the poor, as it is stated (Leviticus 19:9), “and the gleanings of your harvest you shall not glean.” And that is also rectified by a positive commandment, as we have elucidated about the corner (Sefer HaChinukh 217). And all of the content of this commandment you will also find above in the positive commandment of gleanings (Sefer HaChinukh 218).
