In context
18 Thou shalt not bring the wages of an unchaste woman, or the hire of a dog, into the house of Yahweh thy God for any vow,—for, an abomination unto Yahweh thy God, are they both.
19 Thou shalt not lend on interest to thy brother, interest of silver, interest of food,—interest of any thing that can be lent on interest:
20 to a foreigner, thou mayest lend on interest, but to thy brother, shalt thou not lend on interest,—that Yahweh thy God may bless thee, in everything where-unto thou puttest thy hand, upon the land which thou art entering to possess.
21 When thou shalt vow a vow unto Yahweh thy God, thou shalt not delay to make it good,—for Yahweh thy God would, require, it of thee, and it should be in thee sin.
22 But, if thou refrain from vowing, it shall not be in thee sin.
23 That which goeth forth out of thy lips, thou must observe and do,—according as thou didst vow unto Yahweh thy God the free-will, offering of which thou didst speak with thy mouth.
24 When thou enterest into the vineyard of thy neighbour, then mayest thou eat grapes at thy pleasure to thy fill,-but into thy vessel, shalt thou put none.
