mound of ruins
forever, never to be rebuilt.
Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it again: but that which is thine with thy brother thine hand shall release;
You may collect something from a foreigner, but you must
forgive whatever your brother owes you.
Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thine eye be evil
against thy poor brother, and thou givest him
nought; and he cry unto the LORD
against thee, and it be sin unto thee.
Be careful not to
harbor this wicked thought in your heart: “The seventh year, the year of release, is near,” so that you look upon your poor brother begrudgingly and give him nothing. He will cry out to the LORD
against you, and you will be guilty of sin.
