19. You may loan your fellow Israelite money or food or anything else. But don’t make him pay back more than what you loaned him.
20. You may charge a foreigner, but not a fellow Israelite. Then the Lord your God will bless everything you do. He will bless you in the land you are entering to take as your own.
21. You might make a promise to give something to the Lord your God. Do not be slow to pay it. The Lord your God demands it from you. Do not be guilty of sin.
22. But if you do not make the promise, you will not be guilty.
23. You must do whatever you say you will do. You chose to make the promise to the Lord your God.
