In the Septuagint it translates the Hebrew word, nāšâ (צָבָא)l which means "to lend" and "creditor." In one verse of the Septuagint, Pro 29:13, where it is used with the word translated here as "debtor," it was used to translate the Hebrew, ṯḵ. (תך), which means "oppressor." -- "Creditor" is from a Greek root that means "money-lender," but this is not a common form of the word. In the Greek Old Testament, this word was used to translate the Hebrew word meaning "creditor" and in one place, the Greek word meaning "oppressor."
