Deuteronomy 15:2-4

Expanded Bible

² This is ·how you must do it [the manner of remission]: Everyone who has ·loaned money [a claim] must ·cancel [remit] the loan and not make a neighbor or ·relative [or countryman; ^Lbrother] pay it back. This is the Lord’s time for ·canceling what people owe [remitting debts]. ³ You may make a foreigner pay what is owed to you, but you must ·not collect [remit] what ·another Israelite [a relative; or a countryman; ^La brother] owes you. ⁴ But there should be no ·poor [needy] people among you, because the Lord your God will richly bless you in the land he is giving you as your ·own [possession].
