1 “At the end of every seven years you make a release of debts.
2 “And this is the word of the release: Every creditor is to release what he has loaned to his neighbour, he does not require it of his neighbour or his brother, because it is called the release of יהוה.
3 “Of a foreigner you could require it, but your hand is to release whatever is owed by your brother.
4 “Only, there should be no poor among you. For יהוה does greatly bless you in the land which יהוה your Elohim is giving you to possess as an inheritance,
5 only if you diligently obey the voice of יהוה your Elohim, to guard to do all these commands which I am commanding you today.
6 “For יהוה your Elohim 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 do not rule over you.
