Thematic Bible
Usury or interest » The jews » Forbidden to take, from brethren specially when poor
If you lend money to any of my people who is poor among you, you shall not be to him as a lender, neither shall you charge him interest.
And if your brother becomes poor, and falls into poverty among you; then you shall help him: yea, though he be a stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with you. Take you no interest from him, or profit: but fear your God; that your brother may live with you. You shall not lend him your money at interest, nor lend him your food for profit.
