35 ‘(A)Now if a brother of yours becomes poor and his [a]means with regard to you falter, then you are to sustain him, like a sojourner or a foreign resident, that he may live with you. 36 (B)Do not take [b]usurious interest from him, but fear your God, that your brother may live with you. 37 You shall not give him your silver at interest nor your food for gain. 38 (C)I am Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan and (D)to be your God.

Revised Standard Version
35 “And if your brother becomes poor, and cannot maintain himself with you, you shall maintain him; as a stranger and a sojourner he shall live with you. 36 Take no interest from him or increase, but fear your God; that your brother may live beside you. 37 You shall not lend him your money at interest, nor give him your food for profit. 38 I am the Lord your God, who brought you forth out of the land of Egypt to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.
