Deuteronomy 15:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ The Lord your God will bless you as he promised, and you will lend to other nations, but you will not need to borrow from them. You will rule over many nations, but none will rule over you.

⁷ If there are ·poor [needy] among ·you [your relatives; or your countrymen; ^Lyour brothers], in one of the ·towns [^Lgates] of the land the Lord your God is giving you, do not be ·selfish [^Lhard-hearted] or ·greedy [^Ltight-fisted] toward them [Prov. 28:27; 29:7, 14]. ⁸ But ·give freely [^Lopen your hand] to them, and freely lend them whatever they need.
