Deuteronomy 23:18-20
Revised Standard Version
18 You shall not bring the hire of a harlot, or the wages of a dog,[a] into the house of the Lord your God in payment for any vow; for both of these are an abomination to the Lord your God.
19 “You shall not lend upon interest to your brother, interest on money, interest on victuals, interest on anything that is lent for interest. 20 To a foreigner you may lend upon interest, but to your brother you shall not lend upon interest; that the Lord your God may bless you in all that you undertake in the land which you are entering to take possession of it.
