¹⁸ The Lord your God hates the money that men and women get for being prostitutes. So don’t take that money into the house of the Lord to pay what you promised to give.

¹⁹ Don’t charge your own people any interest. Don’t charge them when they borrow money, food or anything else. ²⁰ You can charge interest to people from another country. But don’t charge your own people. Then the Lord your God will bless you in everything you do. He will bless you in the land you are entering to take as your own.
