Deuteronomy 15:1

Debts Canceled Every Seven Years

1 “At the end of ^aevery seven years you shall grant a¹ release of debts.

2 And this is the form of the release: Every creditor who has lent anything to his neighbor shall¹ release it; he shall not require it of his neighbor or his brother, because it is called the Lord’s release.

3 Of a foreigner you may require it; but you shall give up your claim to what is owed by your brother,

4 except when there may be no poor among you; for the Lord will greatly ^abless you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you to possess as an inheritance—

5 only if you carefully obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe with care all these commandments which I command you today.
