EXO 21:2 If thou buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the

seventh he shall go out free for nothing.

EXO 21:3 If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he were

married, then his wife shall go out with him.

EXO 21:4 If his master have given him a wife, and she have born him sons or

daughters; the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out

by himself.

EXO 21:5 And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and

my children; I will not go out free:

EXO 21:6 Then his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring

him to the door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear

through with an aul; and he shall serve him for ever.

EXO 22:25 If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou

shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.

EXO 22:26 If thou at all take thy neighbour's raiment to pledge, thou shalt

deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth down:

EXO 22:27 For that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin:

wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that

I will hear; for I am gracious.

LEV 25:14 And if thou sell ought unto thy neighbour, or buyest ought of thy

neighbour's hand, ye shall not oppress one another:

LEV 25:15 According to the number of years after the jubile thou shalt buy of

thy neighbour, and according unto the number of years of the fruits he shall

sell unto thee:

LEV 25:16 According to the multitude of years thou shalt increase the price

thereof, and according to the fewness of years thou shalt diminish the price of

it: for according to the number of the years of the fruits doth he sell unto

thee.

LEV 25:17 Ye shall not therefore oppress one another; but thou shalt fear thy

God for I am the LORD your God.

LEV 25:35 And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay with thee; then

thou shalt relieve him: yea, though he be a stranger, or a sojourner; that he

may live with thee.

LEV 25:36 Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy God; that thy

brother may live with thee.

LEV 25:37 Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor lend him thy

victuals for increase.

DEU 15:2 And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth

ought unto his neighbour shall release it; he shall not exact it of his

neighbour, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD'S release.

DEU 15:3 Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it again: but that which is thine

with thy brother thine hand shall release;

DEU 23:19 Thou shalt not lend upon usury to thy brother; usury of money, usury

of victuals, usury of any thing that is lent upon usury:

DEU 23:20 Unto a stranger thou mayest lend upon usury; but unto thy brother

thou shalt not lend upon usury: that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all that

thou settest thine hand to in the land whither thou goest to possess it.

DEU 24:6 No man shall take the nether or the upper millstone to pledge: for he

taketh a man's life to pledge.

DEU 24:10 When thou dost lend thy brother any thing, thou shalt not go into his

house to fetch his pledge.

DEU 24:11 Thou shalt stand abroad, and the man to whom thou dost lend shall

bring out the pledge abroad unto thee.

DEU 24:12 And if the man be poor, thou shalt not sleep with his pledge:

DEU 24:13 In any case thou shalt deliver him the pledge again when the sun

goeth down, that he may sleep in his own raiment, and bless thee: and it shall

be righteousness unto thee before the LORD thy God.

DEU 24:17 Thou shalt not pervert the judgment of the stranger, nor of the

fatherless; nor take a widow's raiment to pledge:

2KI 4:1 Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the

prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest

that thy servant did fear the LORD: and the creditor is come to take unto him my

two sons to be bondmen.

NEH 5:1 And there was a great cry of the people and of their wives against

their brethren the Jews.

NEH 5:2 For there were that said, We, our sons, and our daughters, are many:

therefore we take up corn for them, that we may eat, and live.

NEH 5:3 Some also there were that said, We have mortgaged our lands, vineyards,

and houses, that we might buy corn, because of the dearth.

NEH 5:4 There were also that said, We have borrowed money for the king's

tribute, and that upon our lands and vineyards.

NEH 5:5 Yet now our flesh is as the flesh of our brethren, our children as

their children: and, lo, we bring into bondage our sons and our daughters to be

servants, and some of our daughters are brought unto bondage already: neither is

it in our power to redeem them; for other men have our lands and vineyards.

NEH 5:6 And I was very angry when I heard their cry and these words.

NEH 5:7 Then I consulted with myself, and I rebuked the nobles, and the rulers,

and said unto them, Ye exact usury, every one of his brother. And I set a great

assembly against them.

NEH 5:8 And I said unto them, We after our ability have redeemed our brethren

the Jews, which were sold unto the heathen; and will ye even sell your brethren?

or shall they be sold unto us? Then held they their peace, and found nothing to

answer.

NEH 5:9 Also I said, It is not good that ye do: ought ye not to walk in the

fear of our God because of the reproach of the heathen our enemies?

NEH 5:10 I likewise, and my brethren, and my servants, might exact of them

money and corn: I pray you, let us leave off this usury.

NEH 5:11 Restore, I pray you, to them, even this day, their lands, their

vineyards, their oliveyards, and their houses, also the hundredth part of the

money, and of the corn, the wine, and the oil, that ye exact of them.

NEH 5:12 Then said they, We will restore them, and will require nothing of

them; so will we do as thou sayest. Then I called the priests, and took an oath

of them, that they should do according to this promise.

NEH 5:13 Also I shook my lap, and said, So God shake out every man from his

house, and from his labour, that performeth not this promise, even thus be he

shaken out, and emptied. And all the congregation said, Amen, and praised the

LORD. And the people did according to this promise.

JOB 22:6 For thou hast taken a pledge from thy brother for nought, and stripped

the naked of their clothing.

JOB 24:3 They drive away the ass of the fatherless, they take the widow's ox

for a pledge.

JOB 24:9 They pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge of the

poor.

JOB 24:10 They cause him to go naked without clothing, and they take away the

sheaf from the hungry;

PSA 112:5 A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs

with discretion.

PRO 22:26 Be not thou one of them that strike hands, or of them that are

sureties for debts.

PRO 22:27 If thou hast nothing to pay, why should he take away thy bed from

under thee?

MAT 5:25 Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with

him; lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge

deliver thee to the officer, and thou be cast into prison.

MAT 5:26 Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till

thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.

MAT 5:42 Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee

turn not thou away.

MAT 18:23 Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which

would take account of his servants.

MAT 18:24 And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed

him ten thousand talents.

MAT 18:25 But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be

sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.

MAT 18:26 The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord,

have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

MAT 18:27 Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed

him, and forgave him the debt.

MAT 18:28 But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants,

which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the

throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest.

MAT 18:29 And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him,

saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.

MAT 18:30 And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should

pay the debt.

MAT 18:31 So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry,

and came and told unto their lord all that was done.

MAT 18:32 Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou

wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:

MAT 18:33 Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant,

even as I had pity on thee?

MAT 18:34 And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he

should pay all that was due unto him.

MAT 18:35 So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from

your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.

LUK 6:34 And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye?

for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.

LUK 7:41 There was a certain creditor which had two debtors: the one owed five

hundred pence, and the other fifty.

LUK 7:42 And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell

me therefore, which of them will love him most?

LUK 7:43 Simon answered and said, I suppose that he, to whom he forgave most.

And he said unto him, Thou hast rightly judged.

LUK 12:58 When thou goest with thine adversary to the magistrate, as thou art

in the way, give diligence that thou mayest be delivered from him; lest he hale

thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer, and the officer

cast thee into prison.

LUK 12:59 I tell thee, thou shalt not depart thence, till thou hast paid the

very last mite.
