Rules for Slave Owners

³⁵ “‘Someone from your country might become too poor to support himself. Help him to live among you as you would a stranger or foreigner. ³⁶ Do not charge him any interest on money you loan to him. Respect your God. And let the poor man live among you. ³⁷ Don’t lend him money for interest. Don’t try to make a profit from the food he buys. ³⁸ I am the Lord your God. I brought you out of the land of Egypt. I did it to give the land of Canaan to you and to become your God.
