Loans to the Poor

^35 (A)If any Israelites living near you become poor and cannot support themselves, you must provide for them as you would for a hired worker, so that they can continue to live near you. ³⁶ Do not charge Israelites any interest, but obey God and let them live near you. ^37 (B)Do not make them pay interest on the money you lend them, and do not make a profit on the food you sell them. ³⁸ This is the command of the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt in order to give you the land of Canaan and to be your God.
