## Deuteronomy 15:2-4 in Context (Verses 1–7 KJV)
 
 [1 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/15/1) At the end of *every* seven years thou shalt make a release.
 
 [2 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/15/2) And this *is* the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth *ought* unto his neighbour shall release *it;* he shall not exact *it* of his neighbour, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD’s release.*
 
 [3 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/15/3) Of a foreigner thou mayest exact *it again:* but *that* which is thine with thy brother thine hand shall release;
 
 [4 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/15/4) Save when there shall be no poor among you; for the LORD shall greatly bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee *for* an inheritance to possess it:*
 
 [5 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/15/5) Only if thou carefully hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command thee this day.
 
 [6 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/15/6) For the LORD thy God blesseth thee, as he promised thee: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over thee.
 
 [7 ](/kjv/deuteronomy/15/7) ¶ If there be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine hand from thy poor brother:
