Deuteronomy 15:2-4

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

² Which shall be celebrated in this order. He to whom any thing is owing from his friend or neighbour or brother, cannot demand it again, because it is the year of remission of the Lord,

³ Of the foreigner or stranger thou mayst exact it: of thy countryman and neighbour thou shalt not have power to demand it again.

⁴ And there shall be no poor nor beggar among you: that the Lord thy God may bless thee in the land which he will give thee in possession.
