Deuteronomy 15:9 in Context — Deuteronomy 15
7 S’il y a chez toi quelque indigent d’entre tes frères, dans l’une de tes portes, au pays que l’Éternel, ton Dieu, te donne, tu n’endurciras point ton cœur et tu ne fermeras point ta main devant ton frère indigent.
8 Mais tu lui ouvriras ta main, et tu lui prêteras de quoi pourvoir à ses besoins.
9 Garde-toi d’être assez méchant pour dire en ton cœur: La septième année, l’année du relâche, approche! Garde-toi d’avoir un œil sans pitié pour ton frère indigent et de lui faire un refus. Il crierait à l’Éternel contre toi, et tu te chargerais d’un péché.
10 Donne-lui, et que ton cœur ne lui donne point à regret; car, à cause de cela, l’Éternel, ton Dieu, te bénira dans tous tes travaux et dans toutes tes entreprises.
11 Il y aura toujours des indigents dans le pays; c’est pourquoi je te donne ce commandement: Tu ouvriras ta main à ton frère, au pauvre et à l’indigent dans ton pays.
