Assisting the poor

Lev 25:35–38

25:35 Assisting the poor

35 If a fellow citizen becomes poor and is unable to survive beside you, then you must support that person and allow him to live with you like a foreigner might.[ref] 36 You mustn’t charge that person any interest or make a profit from him, but you must respect and obey your god, and your fellow citizen can continue to live with you. 37 If you loan him money, don’t charge interest or make a profit from his food.[ref] 38 I am your god Yahweh who brought you all out of Mitsrayim (Egypt) to give you the Kena’an (Canaan) region and to be your god.
