Deuteronomy 23:18-20
The Voice
18 The Eternal, your True God, will not accept income from male or female prostitution in payment of a vow in His house. Both kinds of cult prostitution are horrifying to Him! 19 You may not charge interest to a fellow Israelite who borrows money or food or anything else you could charge interest for. 20 You may charge foreigners interest, but you may not charge interest to your fellow Israelites. If you follow these instructions, the Eternal your God will bless you in everything you do in the land where you’re going to live when you cross the Jordan.
Deuteronomy 23:18-20
New International Version
18 You must not bring the earnings of a female prostitute or of a male prostitute[a] into the house of the Lord your God to pay any vow, because the Lord your God detests them both.(A)
19 Do not charge a fellow Israelite interest, whether on money or food or anything else that may earn interest.(B) 20 You may charge a foreigner(C) interest, but not a fellow Israelite, so that the Lord your God may bless(D) you in everything you put your hand to in the land you are entering to possess.
