| Borrowing |
 |
|
| Exodus 22:14
|
And if a man borrow ought of his neighbour, and it be hurt, or die, the owner thereof being not with it, he shall surely make it good. |
|
| Exodus 22:25-27 |
If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury. |
| |
If thou at all take thy neighbour's raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth down: |
| |
For that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear; for I am gracious. |
|
| Leviticus 25:35-36
|
And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay with thee; then thou shalt relieve him: yea, though he be a stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with thee. |
| |
Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy God; that thy brother may live with thee. |
|
| Psalms 37:21 |
The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth. |
|
| Psalms 112:4-9 |
Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness: he is gracious, and full of compassion, and righteous. |
| |
A good man sheweth favour, and lendeth: he will guide his affairs with discretion. |
| |
Surely he shall not be moved for ever: the righteous shall be in everlasting remembrance. |
| |
He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD. |
| |
His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies. |
| |
He hath dispersed, he hath given to the poor; his righteousness endureth for ever; his horn shall be exalted with honour. |
|
| Proverbs 19:17
|
He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again. |
|
| Proverbs 22:7 |
The rich ruleth over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender. |
|
| Luke 6:30-36 |
Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again. |
| |
And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise. |
| |
For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them. |
| |
And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same. |
| |
And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again. |
| |
But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil. |
| |
Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful. |
|
| Romans 13:8 |
Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. |
