Deuteronomy 15:7-15

7If there beH1961 amongst you a poor man, any oneH259 of thy brethren in oneH259 of thy gatesH8179, in thy landH776 which Jehovah thy 1GodH430 giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thy heartH3824, nor shutH7092 thy handH3027 from thy brotherH251 in need;

8but thou shalt openH6605 thy handH3027 bountifully unto him, and shalt certainly lendH5670 him on pledge what is sufficient for his need, [in that] which he lacketh.

9Beware that there beH1961 not a wicked thought in thy heartH3824, sayingH559, The seventh yearH8141, the yearH8141 of release, is at hand; and thine eyeH5869 beH1961 evil against thy poor brotherH251, and thou givest him nought; and he cry against thee to Jehovah, and it beH1961 sinH2399 in thee.

10Thou shalt bountifully giveH5414 unto him, and thy heartH3824 shall not be evil-disposed when thou givest unto him; because for this thingH1697 Jehovah thy 2GodH430 will blessH1288 thee in all thy worksH4639, and in all the business of thy handH3027.

11For the needyH34 shall never ceaseH2308 from within the landH776; thereforeH3651 I commandH6680 thee, sayingH559, Thou shalt openH6605 thy handH3027 bountifully unto thy brotherH251, to thy poorH6041 and to thy needyH34, in thy landH776.

12If thy brotherH251, a HebrewH5680 man, or a HebrewH5680 woman, have been soldH4376 unto thee, he shall serveH5647 thee sixH8337 yearsH8141, and in the seventhH7637 yearH8141 thou shalt let him goH7971 freeH2670 from thee.

13And when thou sendest him out freeH2670 from thee, thou shalt not let him goH7971 awayH7971 emptyH7387;

14thou shalt certainly furnish him from thy sheepH6629, and out of thy floorH1637, and out of thy winepressH3342: of what Jehovah thy 3GodH430 hath blessedH1288 thee with shalt thou giveH5414 unto him.

15And thou shalt rememberH2142 that thou wast a bondman in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and that Jehovah thy 4GodH430 redeemedH6299 thee; thereforeH3651 I commandH6680 thee this thingH1697 to-day.
