Deuteronomy 15:10-12
Lexham English Bible
10 By all means you must give to him, and you must not be discontented[a] 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.[b] 11 For the poor[c] will not cease to be among you[d] in the land; therefore I am commanding you, saying,[e] ‘You shall willingly open your hand to your brother, to your needy and to your poor that are in your land.’
12 If your relative[f] who is a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman is sold to you, and he or she has served you six years, then in the seventh year you shall send that person out free.[g]
