| 1 | "At the end of every seven years you shall grant a release. | The year of release. Dt.15.1-11 | Lv.25.1-7 | מִקֵּץ שֶׁבַע־שָׁנִים תַּעֲשֶׂה שְׁמִטָּה׃ | 1 |
| 2 | And this is the manner of the release: every creditor shall release what he has lent to his neighbor; he shall not exact it of his neighbor, his brother, because the LORD's release has been proclaimed. | | וְזֶה דְּבַר הַשְּׁמִטָּה שָׁמֹוט כָּל־בַּעַל מַשֵּׁה יָדֹו אֲשֶׁר יַשֶּׁה בְּרֵעֵהוּ לֹא־יִגֹּשׂ אֶת־רֵעֵהוּ וְאֶת־אָחִיו כִּי־קָרָא שְׁמִטָּה לַיהוָה׃ | 2 |
| 3 | Of a foreigner you may exact it; but whatever of yours is with your brother your hand shall release. | | אֶת־הַנָּכְרִי תִּגֹּשׂ וַאֲשֶׁר יִהְיֶה לְךָ אֶת־אָחִיךָ תַּשְׁמֵט יָדֶךָ׃ | 3 |
| 4 | But there will be no poor among you (for the LORD will bless you in the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance to possess), | | אֶפֶס כִּי לֹא יִהְיֶה־בְּךָ אֶבְיֹון כִּי־בָרֵךְ יְבָרֶךְךָ יְהוָה בָּאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ נֹתֵן־לְךָ נַחֲלָה לְרִשְׁתָּהּ׃ | 4 |
| 5 | if only you will obey the voice of the LORD your God, being careful to do all this commandment which I command you this day. | | רַק אִם־שָׁמֹועַ תִּשְׁמַע בְּקֹול יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ לִשְׁמֹר לַעֲשֹׂות אֶת־כָּל־הַמִּצְוָה הַזֹּאת אֲשֶׁר אָנֹכִי מְצַוְּךָ הַיֹּום׃ | 5 |
| 6 | For the LORD your God will bless you, as he promised you, and you shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow; and you shall rule over many nations, but they shall not rule over you. | | כִּי־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ בֵּרַךְךָ כַּאֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר־לָךְ וְהַעֲבַטְתָּ גֹּויִם רַבִּים וְאַתָּה לֹא תַעֲבֹט וּמָשַׁלְתָּ בְּגֹויִם רַבִּים וּבְךָ לֹא יִמְשֹׁלוּ׃ ס | 6 |
| 7 | "If there is among you a poor man, one of your brethren, in any of your towns within your land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not harden your heart or shut your hand against your poor brother, | | כִּי־יִהְיֶה בְךָ אֶבְיֹון מֵאַחַד אַחֶיךָ בְּאַחַד שְׁעָרֶיךָ בְּאַרְצְךָ אֲשֶׁר־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ נֹתֵן לָךְ לֹא תְאַמֵּץ אֶת־לְבָבְךָ וְלֹא תִקְפֹּץ אֶת־יָדְךָ מֵאָחִיךָ הָאֶבְיֹון׃ | 7 |
| 8 | but you shall open your hand to him, and lend him sufficient for his need, whatever it may be. | | כִּי־פָתֹחַ תִּפְתַּח אֶת־יָדְךָ לֹו וְהַעֲבֵט תַּעֲבִיטֶנּוּ דֵּי מַחְסֹרֹו אֲשֶׁר יֶחְסַר לֹו׃ | 8 |
| 9 | Take heed lest there be a base thought in your heart, and you say, 'The seventh year, the year of release is near,' and your eye be hostile to your poor brother, and you give him nothing, and he cry to the LORD against you, and it be sin in you. | | הִשָּׁמֶר לְךָ פֶּן־יִהְיֶה דָבָר עִם־לְבָבְךָ בְלִיַּעַל לֵאמֹר קָרְבָה שְׁנַת־הַשֶּׁבַע שְׁנַת הַשְּׁמִטָּה וְרָעָה עֵינְךָ בְּאָחִיךָ הָאֶבְיֹון וְלֹא תִתֵּן לֹו וְקָרָא עָלֶיךָ אֶל־יְהוָה וְהָיָה בְךָ חֵטְא׃ | 9 |
| 10 | You shall give to him freely, and your heart shall not be grudging when you give to him; because for this the LORD your God will bless you in all your work and in all that you undertake. | | נָתֹון תִּתֵּן לֹו וְלֹא־יֵרַע לְבָבְךָ בְּתִתְּךָ לֹו כִּי בִּגְלַל הַדָּבָר הַזֶּה יְבָרֶךְךָ יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ בְּכָל־מַעֲשֶׂךָ וּבְכֹל מִשְׁלַח יָדֶךָ׃ | 10 |
| 11 | For the poor will never cease out of the land; therefore I command you, You shall open wide your hand to your brother, to the needy and to the poor, in the land. | | כִּי לֹא־יֶחְדַּל אֶבְיֹון מִקֶּרֶב הָאָרֶץ עַל־כֵּן אָנֹכִי מְצַוְּךָ לֵאמֹר פָּתֹחַ תִּפְתַּח אֶת־יָדְךָ לְאָחִיךָ לַעֲנִיֶּךָ וּלְאֶבְיֹנְךָ בְּאַרְצֶךָ׃ ס | 11 |
