Deuteronomy 13:13-16 (י') כִּֽי־תִשְׁמַ֞ע 'ְּאַ-ַ֣ת עָרֶ-יךָ אֲשֶׁר֩ "' אֱלֹקֶ֜יךָ נֹתֵ֥ן לְךָ֛ לָשֶׁ֥'ֶת שָׁ-ם לֵאמֹֽר׃ (י") יָצְא֞וּ אֲנָשִׁ֤ים 'ְּנֵֽי־'ְלִיַּ֙עַל֙ מִקִּרְ'ֶּ"ךָ וַיַּ"ִּ֛י-וּ אֶת־יֹשְׁ'ֵ֥י עִירָ-ם לֵאמֹ'ר נֵלְכָ-" וְנַעַ'ְ"ָ֛" אֱלֹקִ֥ים אֲ-ֵרִ-ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר לֹא־יְ"ַעְתֶּֽם׃ (טו) וְ"ָרַשְׁתָּ֧ וְ-ָקַרְתָּ֧ וְשָׁאַלְתָּ- "ֵיטֵ'' וְ"ִנֵּ֤" אֱמֶת֙ נָכ֣וֹן "ַ"ָּ'ָ"ר נֶעֶשְׂתָ֛" "ַתּוֹעֵ'ָ֥" "ַ-ֹּ-את 'ְּקִרְ'ֶּֽךָ׃ (ט-) "ַכֵּ֣" תַכֶּ-" אֶת־יֹֽשְׁ'ֵ֛י "ָעִ֥יר ""וא ["ַ"ִ-יא] לְפִי־-ָ'רֶ' "ַ-ֲרֵ֨ם אֹתָ֧"ּ וְאֶת־כָּל־אֲשֶׁר־'ָּ֛"ּ וְאֶת־'ְּ"ֶמְתָּ-"ּ לְפִי־-ָֽרֶ'׃
(13) If you hear it said, of one of the towns that the LORD your God is giving you to dwell in, (14) that some base men [literally, children of bliya'al] from among you have gone and subverted the inhabitants of their town, saying, “Come let us worship other gods”"whom you have not experienced" (15) you shall investigate and inquire and interrogate thoroughly. If it is true, the fact is established"that abhorrent thing was perpetrated in your midst" (16) put the inhabitants of that town to the sword and put its cattle to the sword. Doom it and all that is in it to destruction.
Deuteronomy 15:9 (ט) "ִשָּׁ֣מֶר לְךָ֡ פֶּן־יִ"ְיֶ֣" "ָ'ָר֩ עִם־לְ'ָ'ְךָ֨ 'ְלִיַּ֜עַל לֵאמֹ-ר קָֽרְ'ָ֣" שְׁנַֽת־"ַשֶּׁ'ַע֮ שְׁנַ֣ת "ַשְּׁמִטָּ"' וְרָעָ֣" עֵֽינְךָ- 'ְּאָ-ִ֙יךָ֙ "ָֽאֶ'ְי"וֹן וְלֹ֥א תִתֵּ-ן ל'וֹ וְקָרָ֤א עָלֶ֙יךָ֙ אֶל־"' וְ"ָיָ֥" 'ְךָ- -ֵֽטְא׃
(9) Beware lest you harbor the base [bliya'al] thought, “The seventh year, the year of remission, is approaching,” so that you are mean to your needy kinsman and give him nothing. He will cry out to the LORD against you, and you will incur guilt.
Talmud, Bava Batra 10a:10 "תניא ר'י י"ושע 'ן קר-" אומר כל "מעלים עיניו מן "צ"ק" כאילו עו'" ע'ו"ת כוכ'ים כתי' "כא ("'רים טו, ט) "שמר לך פן י"י" "'ר עם ל''ך 'ליעל וכתי' "תם ("'רים י', י") יצאו אנשים 'ני 'ליעל מ" ל"לן ע'ו"ת כוכ'ים אף כאן ע'ו"ת כוכ'ים
As it is taught: Rabbi Yehoshua ben Korḥa says: Anyone who turns his eyes away from one seeking tzedakah is considered as if he worships idols. From where is this derived? It is written here: “Beware that there be not a base [bliya'al] thought in your heart” (Deuteronomy 15:9). And it is written there: “Certain base [bliya'al] men have gone out” (Deuteronomy 13:14). Just as there, the base men in the city sin with idolatry, so too here, the base thought about the loan is akin to idolatry.
Talmud, Sanhedrin 112a:10-11 ואת כל אשר '" לר'ות נכסי צ"יקים ש'תוכ"...אמר ר"ש מפני מ" אמר" תור" נכסי צ"יקים ש'תוכ" יא'"ו מי 'רם ל"ם שי"ורו 'תוכ" ממונם לפיכך ממונם א'"
“And all that is in it”; this serves to include the property of the righteous that is located inside the city; it is also destroyed...Rabbi Shimon said: For what reason does the Torah say that the property of the righteous that is in it shall be destroyed? What caused the righteous to live in this city inhabited by wicked people? Their money. Therefore, their money is destroyed.
