Thou shalt not¹ giveª° him¹ thy moneyª upon usury,ª nor¹ lendª° him thy victualsª for increase.ª" {Lev 25:35-37} + "Thou shalt not¹ lend upon usuryª° to thy brother;ª usuryª of money,ª usuryª of victuals,ª usuryª of any¹ thingª that¹ is lent upon usury:ª° ... Unto a strangerª thou mayest lend upon usury;ª° but unto thy brotherª thou shalt not¹ lend upon usury:ª° that¹ the LORDª thy Godª may blessª° thee in all¹ that thou settestª thine handª to in¹ the landª whither¹¹ thou¹ goestª° to possessª° it." {Deu 23:19-20} + "For there wereª that¹ said,ª° We,¹ our sons,ª and our daughters,ª [are] many:ª therefore we take upª° cornª [for them], that we may eat,ª° and live.ª° ... Yet now¹ our fleshª [is] as the fleshª of our brethren,ª our childrenª as their children:ª and, lo,¹ we¹ bring into bondageª°¹ our sonsª and our daughtersª to be servants,ª and [some] of our daughtersª¹ areª brought unto bondageª° [already]: neither¹ [is it] in our powerªª [to redeem them]; for other¹ men² have our landsª and vineyards.ª" {Neh 5:2-5} + "Then I consultedª° with¹ myself,ª and I rebukedª°¹ the nobles,ª and the rulers,ª and saidª° unto them, Ye¹ exactª°°°²°² usury,ª every oneª of his brother.ª And I setª° a greatª assemblyª against¹ them. ... Also¹ I shookª° my lap,ª and said,ª° So¹ Godª shake outª°¹ every¹ manª from his house,ª¹ and from his labour,ª¹ that¹ performethª° not¹¹ this¹ promise,ª even thus¹ be¹ he shaken out,ª° and emptied.ª And all¹ the congregationª said,ª° Amen,ª and praisedª°¹ the LORD.ª And the peopleª didª° according to this¹ promise.ª" {Neh 5:7-13} + "He [that] hath not¹ given forthª° upon usury,ª neither¹ hath takenª° any increase,ª [that] hath withdrawnª° his handª from iniquity,ª¹ hath executedª° trueª judgmentª between¹ manª and man,ª" {Ezk 18:8} + "[That] hath taken offª° his handª from the poor,ª¹ [that] hath not¹ receivedª° usuryª nor increase,ª hath executedª° my judgments,ª hath walkedª° in my statutes;ª he¹ shall not¹ dieª° for the iniquityª of his father,ª he shall surely²° live.ª°" {Ezk 18:17} + "In thee have they takenª° giftsª to¹ shedª° blood;ª thou hast takenª° usuryª and increase,ª and thou hast greedily gainedª° of thy neighboursª by extortion,ª and hast forgottenª° me, saithª° the Lordª GOD.ª" {Ezk 22:12}
