Deuteronomy

Chapter 15

1 AT the end of every seven years you shall make a release.

2 And this is the manner of the release: every creditor shall release any debt which his neighbor owes him; he shall not exact it of his neighbor, or of his brother; because it is called the year of the LORD'S release.

3 Of a foreigner you may exact it again; but that which you have with your brother (kindred) you shall release,

4 So that there will be no poor among you; for the LORD your God shall greatly bless you in the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance to possess.

5 If you hearken to the voice of the LORD your God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command you this day.

6 For the LORD your God shall bless you, as he promised you; and you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow; and you shall rule over many nations, but they shall not rule over you.

7 If there is among you a poor person of one of your brethren within any of your towns in the land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not harden your heart, nor shut your hand from your poor brother:

8 But you shall open your hand wide to him, and shall surely lend him whatsoever he lacks.

9 Beware that there be not a wicked thought in your heart, and you say, The seventh year, the year of release, is near; and your eye be evil toward your poor brother, and you give him nothing; and he cry to the LORD against you, and it be sin to you.

10 You shall surely give to him, and your heart shall not be displeased when you give to him; because for this thing the LORD your God shall bless you in all your works and in all things that you undertake.

11 For the poor shall never cease out of the land; therefore I command you, saying, You shall open your hand wide to your poor brother and to the needy in your land.

12 And if your brother, a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman, is sold to you, and he shall serve you six years, then in the seventh year you shall let him go free from you.

13 And when you let him go free from you, you shall not let him go away empty-handed;

14 But you shall set aside and give to him out of your flocks and out of your oxen and out of your threshing floor and out of your wine press; out of everything which the LORD your God gives you, you shall give to him.

15 And you shall remember that you were a bondman in Egypt, and the LORD your God delivered you; therefore I command you this thing today.

16 But if he says to you. I will not go away from you, because I love you and your household, and because it is better for me to be with you,

17 Then you must take an awl, and thrust it through his ear to the door, and he shall be your servant for ever. You shall do likewise to your maidservant.

18 You shall not show displeasure when you let him go free from you; for he has served you double according to the wages of a hired servant, in serving you six years; and the LORD your God shall bless you in all that you do.

19 All the firstling males that are born of your herds and of your flock you shall sanctify to the LORD your God; you shall do no work with the firstlings of your oxen, nor shear the firstlings of your sheep.

20 You shall eat a firstling before the LORD your God year by year in the place which the LORD shall choose, you and your household;

21 And if there is any blemish in it, or it is lame or blind, or have any ill blemish, you shall not sacrifice it to the LORD your God.

22 But you shall eat it within your towns; the unclean and the clean shall eat of it alike, as a gazelle, and as the hart.

23 Only you shall not eat the blood; but you must pour it out on the ground like water.

Chapter 15

1 At the end7093 of every seven7651 years8141 you shall make6213 a release.8059

2 And this2088 is the manner1697 of the release:8059 Every3605 creditor1167 that lends5383 ought to his neighbor7453 shall release8058 it; he shall not exact5065 it of his neighbor,7453 or of his brother;251 because3588 it is called7121 the LORD's3068 release.8059

3 Of a foreigner5237 you may exact5065 it again: but that which834 is your with your brother251 your hand3027 shall release;8058

4 Save657 when3588 there shall be no3808 poor34 among you; for the LORD3068 shall greatly bless1288 you in the land776 which834 the LORD3068 your God430 gives5414 you for an inheritance5159 to possess3423 it:

5 Only7535 if518 you carefully8085 listen8085 to the voice6963 of the LORD3068 your God,430 to observe8104 to do6213 all3605 these2063 commandments4687 which834 I command6680 you this day.3117

6 For the LORD3068 your God430 blesses1288 you, as he promised1696 you: and you shall lend5670 to many7227 nations,1471 but you shall not borrow;5670 and you shall reign4910 over many7227 nations,1471 but they shall not reign4910 over you.

7 If3588 there be among you a poor34 man of one259 of your brothers251 within any259 of your gates8179 in your land776 which834 the LORD3068 your God430 gives5414 you, you shall not harden553 your heart,3824 nor3808 shut7092 your hand3027 from your poor34 brother:251

8 But you shall open6605 your hand3027 wide6605 to him, and shall surely lend5670 him sufficient1767 for his need,4270 in that which834 he wants.2637

9 Beware8104 that there be not a thought1697 in your wicked1100 heart,3824 saying,559 The seventh7637 year,8141 the year8141 of release,8059 is at7126 hand;7126 and your eye5869 be evil7489 against your poor34 brother,251 and you give5414 him nothing;3808 and he cry7121 to the LORD3068 against5921 you, and it be sin2399 to you.

10 You shall surely give5414 him, and your heart3824 shall not be grieved7489 when you give5414 to him: because3588 that for this2088 thing1697 the LORD3068 your God430 shall bless1288 you in all3605 your works,4639 and in all3605 that you put4916 your hand3027 to.

11 For the poor34 shall never3808 cease2308 out of the land:776 therefore5921 3651 I command6680 you, saying,559 You shall open6605 your hand3027 wide6605 to your brother,251 to your poor,6041 and to your needy,34 in your land.776

12 And if3588 your brother,251 an Hebrew5680 man, or176 an Hebrew5680 woman, be sold4376 to you, and serve5647 you six8337 years;8141 then in the seventh7637 year8141 you shall let him go7971 free2670 from you.

13 And when3588 you send7971 him out free2670 from you, you shall not let him go7971 away empty:7387

14 You shall furnish6059 him liberally6059 out of your flock,6629 and out of your floor,1637 and out of your wine press:3342 of that with which834 the LORD3068 your God430 has blessed1288 you you shall give5414 to him.

15 And you shall remember2142 that you were1961 a slave5650 in the land776 of Egypt,4714 and the LORD3068 your God430 redeemed6299 you: therefore5921 3651 I command6680 you this2088 thing1697 to day.3117

16 And it shall be, if3588 he say559 to you, I will not go3318 away3318 from you; because3588 he loves157 you and your house,1004 because3588 he is well2895 with you;

17 Then you shall take3947 an awl,4836 and thrust5414 it through his ear241 to the door,1817 and he shall be your servant5650 for ever.5769 And also637 to your maidservant519 you shall do6213 likewise.3651

18 It shall not seem7185 hard7185 to you, when you send7971 him away free2670 from you; for he has been worth7939 a double4932 hired7916 servant7916 to you, in serving5647 you six8337 years:8141 and the LORD3068 your God430 shall bless1288 you in all3605 that you do.6213

19 All3605 the firstling1060 males2145 that come3205 of your herd1241 and of your flock6629 you shall sanctify6942 to the LORD3068 your God:430 you shall do no3808 work5647 with the firstling1060 of your bullock,7794 nor3808 shear1494 the firstling1060 of your sheep.6629

20 You shall eat398 it before6440 the LORD3068 your God430 year8141 by year8141 in the place4725 which834 the LORD3068 shall choose,977 you and your household.1004

21 And if3588 there be any blemish3971 therein, as if it be lame,6455 or176 blind,5787 or have any3605 ill7451 blemish,3971 you shall not sacrifice2076 it to the LORD3068 your God.430

22 You shall eat it within your gates:8179 the unclean2931 and the clean2889 person shall eat398 it alike,3162 as the roebuck,6643 and as the hart.354

23 Only7535 you shall not eat398 the blood1818 thereof; you shall pour8210 it on the ground776 as water.4325
