¹⁸ Don’t bring a female prostitute’s fee or a male prostitute’s^[a] payment to the Lord your God’s temple to pay a solemn promise because both of these things are detestable to the Lord your God.

Charging interest

¹⁹ Don’t charge your fellow Israelites interest—whether on money, provisions, or anything one might loan. ²⁰ You can charge foreigners interest, but not your fellow Israelite. Do this so that the Lord your God blesses you in all your work on the land you are entering to possess.
