1 Be kind enough to lend to your neighbor when he needs help. You are keeping the Lord's commands if you help him.
2 If he needs something, lend it to him. And when you are in debt, pay it back as soon as you can.
3 If you meet your obligations, you will always be able to borrow what you need.
4 Many people treat a loan as something they found and can keep, causing embarrassment to those who helped them.
