And when he had agreed G4856 with the laborers G2040 for a penny G1220 a day, G2250 he sent G649 them into G1519 his vineyard. G290

And this H2088 is the manner H1697 of the release: H8059 Every H3605 creditor H1167 that lends H5383 ought to his neighbor H7453 shall release H8058 it; he shall not exact H5065 it of his neighbor, H7453 or of his brother; H251 because H3588 it is called H7121 the LORD's H3068 release. H8059

Then I consulted H4427 with myself, and I rebuked H7378 the nobles, H2715 and the rulers, H5461 and said H559 to them, You exact H5378 usury, H5383 every H376 one H376 of his brother. H251 And I set H5414 a great H1419 assembly H6952 against H5921 them.

I likewise, H1571 and my brothers, H251 and my servants, H5288 might exact H5383 of them money H3701 and corn: H1715 I pray H4994 you, let us leave H5800 off this H2088 usury. H5383

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.

And if the people H5971 of the land H776 bring H935 ware H4728 or any victuals H7668 on the sabbath H7676 day H3117 to sell, H4376 that we would not buy H3947 it of them on the sabbath, H7676 or on the holy H6944 day: H3117 and that we would leave H5203 the seventh H7637 year, H8141 and the exaction H4855 of every H3605 debt. H3027

Why H4100 have we fasted, H6684 say they, and you see H7200 not? why have we afflicted H6031 our soul, H5315 and you take no H3808 knowledge? H3045 Behold, H2005 in the day H3117 of your fast H6685 you find H4672 pleasure, H2656 and exact H5065 all H3605 your labors. H6092

Thus H3541 said H5002 the Lord H136 GOD; H3069 Let it suffice H7227 you, O princes H5387 of Israel: H3478 remove H5493 violence H2555 and spoil, H7701 and execute H6213 judgment H4941 and justice, H6666 take H7311 away H7311 your exactions H1646 from my people, H5971 said H559 the Lord H136 GOD.
