Deuteronomy 14:22--15:18

14:22

Thou shalt truly
<06237> (8763)

tithe
<06237> (8762)

all the increase
<08393>

of thy seed
<02233>_,

that the field
<07704>

bringeth forth
<03318> (8802)

year
<08141>

by year
<08141>_.

14:23

And thou shalt eat
<0398> (8804)

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

in the place
<04725>

which he shall choose
<0977> (8799)

to place
<07931> (8763)

his name
<08034>

there, the tithe
<04643>

of thy corn
<01715>_,

of thy wine
<08492>_,

and of thine oil
<03323>_,

and the firstlings
<01062>

of thy herds
<01241>

and of thy flocks
<06629>_;

that thou mayest learn
<03925> (8799)

to fear
<03372> (8800)

the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

always
<03117>_.

14:24

And if the way
<01870>

be too long
<07235> (8799)

for thee, so that
<03588>

thou art not able
<03201> (8799)

to carry
<05375> (8800)

it; [or] if the place
<04725>

be too far
<07368> (8799)

from thee, which the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

shall choose
<0977> (8799)

to set
<07760> (8800)

his name
<08034>

there, when the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

hath blessed
<01288> (8762)

thee:

14:25

Then shalt thou turn
<05414> (8804)

[it] into money
<03701>_,

and bind up
<06696> (8804)

the money
<03701>

in thine hand
<03027>_,

and shalt go
<01980> (8804)

unto the place
<04725>

which the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

shall choose
<0977> (8799)_:

14:26

And thou shalt bestow
<05414> (8804)

that money
<03701>

for whatsoever thy soul
<05315>

lusteth after
<0183> (8762)_,

for oxen
<01241>_,

or for sheep
<06629>_,

or for wine
<03196>_,

or for strong drink
<07941>_,

or for whatsoever thy soul
<05315>

desireth
<07592> (8799)_:

and thou shalt eat
<0398> (8804)

there before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

and thou shalt rejoice
<08055> (8804)_,

thou, and thine household
<01004>_,

{desireth: Heb. asketh of thee}

14:27

And the Levite
<03881>

that [is] within thy gates
<08179>_;

thou shalt not forsake
<05800> (8799)

him; for he hath no part
<02506>

nor inheritance
<05159>

with thee.

14:28

At the end
<07097>

of three
<07969>

years
<08141>

thou shalt bring forth
<03318> (8686)

all the tithe
<04643>

of thine increase
<08393>

the same year
<08141>_,

and shalt lay [it] up
<03240> (8689)

within thy gates
<08179>_:

14:29

And the Levite
<03881>_,

(because he hath no part
<02506>

nor inheritance
<05159>

with thee,) and the stranger
<01616>_,

and the fatherless
<03490>_,

and the widow
<0490>_,

which [are] within thy gates
<08179>_,

shall come
<0935> (8804)_,

and shall eat
<0398> (8804)

and be satisfied
<07646> (8804)_;

that the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

may bless
<01288> (8762)

thee in all the work
<04639>

of thine hand
<03027>

which thou doest
<06213> (8799)_.

15:1

At the end
<07093>

of [every] seven
<07651>

years
<08141>

thou shalt make
<06213> (8799)

a release
<08059>_.

15:2

And this [is] the manner
<01697>

of the release
<08059>_:

Every creditor
<01167> <04874> <03027>

that lendeth
<05383> (8686)

[ought] unto his neighbour
<07453>

shall release
<08058> (8800)

[it]; he shall not exact
<05065> (8799)

[it] of his neighbour
<07453>_,

or of his brother
<0251>_;

because it is called
<07121> (8804)

the LORD'S
<03068>

release
<08059>_.

{creditor: Heb. master of the lending of his hand}

15:3

Of a foreigner
<05237>

thou mayest exact
<05065> (8799)

[it again]: but [that] which is thine with thy brother
<0251>

thine hand
<03027>

shall release
<08058> (8686)_;

15:4

Save
<0657>

when there shall be no poor
<034>

among you; for the LORD
<03068>

shall greatly
<01288> (8763)

bless
<01288> (8762)

thee in the land
<0776>

which the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

giveth
<05414> (8802)

thee [for] an inheritance
<05159>

to possess
<03423> (8800)

it: {Save...: or, To the end that there be no poor among you}

15:5

Only if thou carefully
<08085> (8800)

hearken
<08085> (8799)

unto the voice
<06963>

of the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>_,

to observe
<08104> (8800)

to do
<06213> (8800)

all these commandments
<04687>

which I command
<06680> (8764)

thee this day
<03117>_.

15:6

For the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

blesseth
<01288> (8765)

thee, as he promised
<01696> (8765)

thee: and thou shalt lend
<05670> (8689)

unto many
<07227>

nations
<01471>_,

but thou shalt not borrow
<05670> (8799)_;

and thou shalt reign
<04910> (8804)

over many
<07227>

nations
<01471>_,

but they shall not reign
<04910> (8799)

over thee.

15:7

If there be among you a poor man
<034>

of one
<0259>

of thy brethren
<0251>

within any
<0259>

of thy gates
<08179>

in thy land
<0776>

which the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

giveth
<05414> (8802)

thee, thou shalt not harden
<0553> (8762)

thine heart
<03824>_,

nor shut
<07092> (8799)

thine hand
<03027>

from thy poor
<034>

brother
<0251>_:

15:8

But thou shalt open
<06605> (8799)

thine hand
<03027>

wide
<06605> (8800)

unto him, and shalt surely
<05670> (8687)

lend
<05670> (8686)

him sufficient
<01767>

for his need
<04270>_,

[in that] which he wanteth
<02637> (8799)_.

15:9

Beware
<08104> (8734)

that there be not a thought
<01697>

in thy wicked
<01100>

heart
<03824>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The seventh
<07651>

year
<08141>_,

the year
<08141>

of release
<08059>_,

is at hand
<07126> (8804)_;

and thine eye
<05869>

be evil
<07489> (8804)

against thy poor
<034>

brother
<0251>_,

and thou givest
<05414> (8799)

him nought; and he cry
<07121> (8804)

unto the LORD
<03068>

against thee, and it be sin
<02399>

unto thee. {thought: Heb. word} {wicked: Heb. Belial}

15:10

Thou shalt surely
<05414> (8800)

give
<05414> (8799)

him, and thine heart
<03824>

shall not be grieved
<03415> (8799)

when thou givest
<05414> (8800)

unto him: because
<01558>

that for this thing
<01697>

the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

shall bless
<01288> (8762)

thee in all thy works
<04639>_,

and in all that thou puttest
<04916>

thine hand
<03027>

unto.

15:11

For the poor
<034>

shall never cease
<02308> (8799)

out of
<07130>

the land
<0776>_:

therefore I command
<06680> (8764)

thee, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Thou shalt open
<06605> (8799)

thine hand
<03027>

wide
<06605> (8800)

unto thy brother
<0251>_,

to thy poor
<06041>_,

and to thy needy
<034>_,

in thy land
<0776>_.

15:12

[And] if thy brother
<0251>_,

an Hebrew man
<05680>_,

or an Hebrew woman
<05680>_,

be sold
<04376> (8735)

unto thee, and serve
<05647> (8804)

thee six
<08337>

years
<08141>_;

then in the seventh
<07637>

year
<08141>

thou shalt let him go
<07971> (8762)

free
<02670>

from thee.

15:13

And when thou sendest
<07971> (8762)

him out free
<02670>

from thee, thou shalt not let him go away
<07971> (8762)

empty
<07387>_:

15:14

Thou shalt furnish
<06059> (8686)

him liberally
<06059> (8687)

out of thy flock
<06629>_,

and out of thy floor
<01637>_,

and out of thy winepress
<03342>_:

[of that] wherewith the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

hath blessed
<01288> (8765)

thee thou shalt give
<05414> (8799)

unto him.

15:15

And thou shalt remember
<02142> (8804)

that thou wast a bondman
<05650>

in the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

and the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

redeemed
<06299> (8799)

thee: therefore I command
<06680> (8764)

thee this thing
<01697>

to day
<03117>_.

15:16

And it shall be, if he say
<0559> (8799)

unto thee, I will not go away
<03318> (8799)

from thee; because he loveth
<0157> (8804)

thee and thine house
<01004>_,

because he is well
<02895> (8804)

with thee;

15:17

Then thou shalt take
<03947> (8804)

an aul
<04836>_,

and thrust
<05414> (8804)

[it] through his ear
<0241>

unto the door
<01817>_,

and he shall be thy servant
<05650>

for ever
<05769>_.

And also unto thy maidservant
<0519>

thou shalt do
<06213> (8799)

likewise.

15:18

It shall not seem hard
<07185> (8799)

unto thee
<05869>_,

when thou sendest him away
<07971> (8763)

free
<02670>

from thee; for he hath been worth
<07939>

a double
<04932>

hired servant
<07916>

[to thee], in serving
<05647> (8804)

thee six
<08337>

years
<08141>_:

and the LORD
<03068>

thy God
<0430>

shall bless
<01288> (8765)

thee in all that thou doest
<06213> (8799)_.
