Deuteronomy 15:4

1At the end of every seven years, you shall cancel debts.

2This is the way it shall be done: every creditor shall release that which he has lent to his neighbor. He shall not require payment from his neighbor and his brother, because the LORD’s release has been proclaimed.

3Of a foreigner you may require it; but whatever of yours is with your brother, your hand shall release.

4However there will be no poor with you (for the LORD will surely bless you in the land which the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance to possess)

5if only you diligently listen to the LORD your God’s voice, to observe to do all this commandment which I command you today.

6For the LORD your God will bless you, as he promised you. You will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow. You will rule over many nations, but they will not rule over you.

7If a poor man, one of your brothers, is with you within any of your gates in your land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not harden your heart, nor shut your hand from your poor brother;

8but you shall surely open your hand to him, and shall surely lend him sufficient for his need, which he lacks.
