Deuteronomy 15:5-10

5Only if thou shalt carefullyH8085 hearkenH8085 to the voiceH6963 of the LORDH3068 thy GodH430, to observeH8104 to doH6213 all these commandmentsH4687 which I commandH6680 thee this dayH3117.

6For the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 shall blessH1288 thee, as he promisedH1696 thee: and thou shalt lendH5670 to manyH7227 nationsH1471, but thou shalt not borrowH5670; and thou shalt reignH4910 over manyH7227 nationsH1471, but they shall not reignH4910 over thee.

7If there shall be among you a poor manH34 of oneH259 of thy brethrenH251 within anyH259 of thy gatesH8179 in thy landH776 which the LORDH3068 the GodH430 givethH5414 thee, thou shalt not hardenH553 thy heartH3824, nor shutH7092 thy handH3027 from thy poorH34 brotherH251:

8But thou shalt openH6605 thy handH3027 wideH6605 to him, and shalt surelyH5670 lendH5670 him sufficientH1767 for his needH4270, in that which he lackethH2637.

9BewareH8104 that there be not a thoughtH1697 in thy wickedH1100 heartH3824, sayingH559, The seventhH7651 yearH8141, the yearH8141 of releaseH8059, is at handH7126; and thy eyeH5869 shall be evilH7489 against thy poorH34 brotherH251, and thou shalt giveH5414 him nothing; and he shall cryH7121 to the LORDH3068 against thee, and it shall be sinH2399 to thee.12

10Thou shalt surelyH5414 giveH5414 him, and thy heartH3824 shall not be grievedH3415 when thou givestH5414 to him: becauseH1558 that for this thingH1697 the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 shall blessH1288 thee in all thy worksH4639, and in all that thou puttestH4916 thy handH3027 to.
