2. And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that lends anything unto his neighbor shall release it; he shall not exact it of his neighbor, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD'S release.
3. Of a foreigner you may exact it again: but that which you lend to your brother your hand shall release;
4. Except when there shall be no poor among you; for the LORD shall greatly bless you in the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance to possess it:
5. Only if you carefully hearken unto 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 blesses you, as he promised you: and you shall lend unto many nations, but you shall not borrow; and you shall reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over you.
