Leviticus 25:36

Redemption of the Poor

35Now if your countryman becomes destitute and cannot support himself among you, then you are to help him as you would a foreigner or stranger, so that he can continue to live among you.36Do not take any interest or profit from him, but fear your God, that your countryman may live among you.37You must not lend him your silver at interest or sell him your food for profit.
