Deuteronomy 23:19 in context

  1. 17There shall be no prostitute of the daughters of Israel, neither shall there be a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
  2. 18You shall not bring the hire of a prostitute, or the wages of a male prostitute, into the house of Yahweh your God for any vow; for both of these are an abomination to Yahweh your God.
  3. 19You shall not lend on interest to your brother: interest of money, interest of food, interest of anything that is lent on interest.
  4. 20You may charge a foreigner interest; but you shall not your brother interest, that Yahweh your God may bless you in all that you put your hand to, in the land where you go in to possess it.
  5. 21When you vow a vow to Yahweh your God, you shall not be slack to pay it, for Yahweh your God will surely require it of you; and it would be sin in you.
