Leviticus 25:35 Context
33And if a man purchase of the Leuites, then the house that was sold, and the citie of his possession shall goe out in the yeere of Iubile: for the houses of the cities of the Leuites are their possession among the children of Israel. 34But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not be sold, for it is their perpetuall possession. 35¶ And if thy brother bee waxen poore, and fallen in decay with thee, then thou shalt relieue him, yea though he be a stranger, or a soiourner, that hee may liue with thee. 36Take thou no vsurie of him, or increase: but feare thy God, that thy brother may liue with thee. 37Thou shalt not giue him thy money vpon vsurie, nor lend him thy victuals for increase.
