Deuteronomy 15:10-12

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁰ Give liberally and be ungrudging when you do so, for on this account the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in all that you undertake. ¹¹ Since there will never cease to be some in need on the earth, I therefore command you, ‘Open your hand to the poor and needy neighbour in your land.’

¹² If a member of your community, whether a Hebrew man or a Hebrew woman, is sold^[a] to you and works for you for six years, in the seventh year you shall set that person free.
