If H518 you lend H3867 money H3701 to any of my people H5971 that is poor H6041 by you, you shall not be to him as an usurer, H5383 neither H3808 shall you lay H7760 on him usury. H5392
And if H3588 your brother H251 be waxen poor, H4134 and fallen H4131H3027 in decay H4131 with you; then you shall relieve H2388 him: yes, though he be a stranger, H1616 or a sojourner; H8453 that he may live H2416 with you.
For there were that said, H559 We, our sons, H1121 and our daughters, H1323 are many: H7227 therefore we take H3947 up corn H1715 for them, that we may eat, H398 and live. H2421
3
Some also there were that said, H559 We have mortgaged H6148 our lands, H7704 vineyards, H3754 and houses, H1004 that we might buy H3947 corn, H1715 because of the dearth. H7458
4
There were also that said, H559 We have borrowed H3867 money H3701 for the king's H4428 tribute, H4060 and that on our lands H7704 and vineyards. H3754
5
Yet now H6258 our flesh H1320 is as the flesh H1320 of our brothers, H251 our children H1121 as their children: H1121 and, see, H2009 we bring H3533 into bondage H3533 our sons H1121 and our daughters H1323 to be servants, H5650 and some of our daughters H1323 are brought H3533 to bondage H3533 already: neither H369 is it in our power H3027 to redeem them; for other H312 men H582 have our lands H7704 and vineyards. H3754
And I said H559 to them, We after H1767 our ability H1767 have redeemed H7069 our brothers H251 the Jews, H3064 which were sold H4376 to the heathen; H1471 and will you even H1571 sell H4376 your brothers? H251 or shall they be sold H4376 to us? Then held H2790 they their peace, H2790 and found H4672 nothing H3808 to answer. H1696
9
Also I said, H559 It is not good H2896 that you do: H6213 ought you not to walk H3212 in the fear H3374 of our God H430 because of the reproach H2781 of the heathen H1471 our enemies? H341
Restore, H7725 I pray H4994 you, to them, even this day, H3117 their lands, H7704 their vineyards, H3754 their olive groves, H2132 and their houses, H1004 also the hundredth H3967 part of the money, H3701 and of the corn, H1715 the wine, H8492 and the oil, H3323 that you exact H5383 of them.
12
Then said H559 they, We will restore H7725 them, and will require H1245 nothing H3808 of them; so H3651 will we do H6213 as you say. H559 Then I called H7121 the priests, H3548 and took an oath H7650 of them, that they should do H6213 according to this H2088 promise. H1697
That has taken H7725 off his hand H3027 from the poor, H6041 that has not received H3947 usury H5392 nor increase, H8635 has executed H6213 my judgments, H4941 has walked H1980 in my statutes; H2708 he shall not die H4191 for the iniquity H5771 of his father, H1 he shall surely live. H2421
And said G2036 to them, What G5101 will G2309 you give G1325 me, and I will deliver G3860 him to you? And they covenanted G2476 with him for thirty G5144 pieces of silver. G694
Saying, G3004 I have sinned G264 in that I have betrayed G3860 the innocent G121 blood. G129 And they said, G2036 What G5101 is that to us? see G3700 you to that.
5
And he cast G4496 down G4496 the pieces of silver G694 in the temple, G3485 and departed, G402 and went G565 and hanged G519 himself.
Again, when the wicked H7563 man turns away from his wickedness H7564 that he has committed, H6213 and does H6213 that which is lawful H4941 and right, H6666 he shall save H2421 his soul H5315 alive. H2421
