New Testament
The passage quoted from the NT - ''And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full.

It appears to suggest lending, even if you don't expect your principal to be repaid. If it is usually interpreted as prohibiting usury, then it needs a ref to support that interpretation.
