7 If there is a poor person among you from among one of your brothers in one of your ⌊towns⌋j that Yahweh your God is giving to you, you shall not harden your heart, and you shall not shut your hand toward ⌊your brother who is poor⌋.k 8 But you shall certainly open your hand for him, and ⌊you shall willingly lend⌋l to him enough to meet his need, ⌊whatever it is⌋.m 9 ⌊Take care⌋n so that thereo will not be ⌊a thought of wickedness⌋p in your heart, ⌊saying⌋,q ‘The seventh year, the year of the remission of debt is near,’ ⌊and you view your needy neighbor with hostility⌋,r and so you do not give to him, and he might cry out against you to Yahweh, and ⌊you would incur guilt against yourself⌋.s 10 By all means you must give to him, and ⌊you must not be discontented⌋t at your giving to him, because on account of this very thing, Yahweh your God will bless you in all your work and ⌊in all that you undertake⌋.u 11 For the poorv will not cease to be ⌊among you⌋w in the land; therefore I am commanding you, ⌊saying⌋,x ‘You shall willingly open your hand to your brother, to your needy and to your poor that are in your land.’
