He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor.
El que se enriquece cobrando intereses excesivos y ganancias deshonestas, terminará perdiendo su riqueza en manos de alguien que ayudará a los pobres.
Las riquezas obtenidas de manera deshonesta acabarán beneficiando a los necesitados.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In ancient Israel, charging interest (usury) to fellow Israelites was forbidden by the Law of Moses, especially when lending to the poor. This verse reflects the biblical principle that God's justice will ultimately prevail, ensuring that ill-gotten wealth doesn't remain with those who exploit others. The Hebrew concept of justice included economic fairness and care for society's most vulnerable members.
