“‘ If any of your fellow Israelites become poor and are unable to support themselves among you, help them as you would a foreigner and stranger, so they can continue to live among you.

“‘ Suppose any of your own people become poor. And suppose they can’t take care of themselves. Then help them just as you would help an outsider or a stranger. In that way, the poor can continue to live among you.

“ If your brother becomes poor and cannot maintain himself with you, you shall support him as though he were a stranger and a sojourner, and he shall live with you.

“ If one of your fellow Israelites falls into poverty and cannot support himself, support him as you would a foreigner or a temporary resident and allow him to live with you.

“ If your brother becomes destitute and cannot sustain himself among you, you are to support him as an alien or temporary resident, so that he can continue to live among you.

‘ Now in case a countryman of yours becomes poor and his means among you falter, then you are to sustain him, like a stranger or a resident, so that he may live with you.

‘ If one of your brethren becomes poor, and falls into poverty among you, then you shall help him, like a stranger or a sojourner, that he may live with you.

And if thy brother be waxed poor, and his hand fail with thee; then thou shalt uphold him: as a stranger and a sojourner shall he live with thee.

And if thy brother be waxen poor, and fallen in decay with thee; then thou shalt relieve him:[ yea, though he be] a stranger, or a sojourner; that he may live with thee.

“‘ If your brother becomes impoverished and is indebted to you, you must support him; he must live with you like a foreign resident.

“‘ If your brother has become poor, and his hand can’t support himself among you, then you shall uphold him. He shall live with you like an alien and a temporary resident.

“ If there is a poor person among you, one of your brothers within any of your gates in the land the Lord your God is giving you, you must not be hardhearted or tightfisted toward your poor brother.Instead, you are to open your hand to him and freely loan him enough for whatever need he has.

So each of the disciples, according to his ability, determined to send relief to the brothers who lived in Judea.

The one who oppresses the poor person insults his Maker, but one who is kind to the needy honors Him.

Happy is one who cares for the poor; the Lord will save him in a day of adversity.

But love your enemies, do what is good, and lend, expecting nothing in return. Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is gracious to the ungrateful and evil.

He is always generous, always lending, and his children are a blessing.

He distributes freely to the poor; his righteousness endures forever. His horn will be exalted in honor.

Good will come to a man who lends generously and conducts his business fairly.

Listen, my dear brothers: Didn’t God choose the poor in this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom that He has promised to those who love Him?Yet you dishonored that poor man. Don’t the rich oppress you and drag you into the courts?

You must not oppress a foreign resident; you yourselves know how it feels to be a foreigner because you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.

Kindness to the poor is a loan to the Lord, and He will give a reward to the lender.

But If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him something to drink. For in so doing you will be heaping fiery coals on his head.

“ Do not oppress a hired hand who is poor and needy, whether one of your brothers or one of the foreigners residing within a town in your land.You are to pay him his wages each day before the sun sets, because he is poor and depends on them. Otherwise he will cry out to the Lord against you, and you will be held guilty.

He executes justice for the fatherless and the widow, and loves the foreigner, giving him food and clothing.You also must love the foreigner, since you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.

Now concerning the ministry to the saints, it is unnecessary for me to write to you.

You must regard the foreigner who lives with you as the native-born among you. You are to love him as yourself, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt; I am Yahweh your God.

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ: Though He was rich, for your sake He became poor, so that by His poverty you might become rich.

Don’t neglect to show hospitality, for by doing this some have welcomed angels as guests without knowing it.

The one who mocks the poor insults his Maker, and one who rejoices over calamity will not go unpunished.

Share with the saints in their needs; pursue hospitality.

For you always have the poor with you, but you do not always have Me.”

If possible, on your part, live at peace with everyone.

If your brother becomes destitute and sells part of his property, his nearest relative may come and redeem what his brother has sold.

For I was hungry and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in;

A poor man is hated even by his neighbor, but there are many who love the rich.The one who despises his neighbor sins, but whoever shows kindness to the poor will be happy.

For the ministry of this service is not only supplying the needs of the saints, but is also overflowing in many acts of thanksgiving to God.They will glorify God for your obedience to the confession of the gospel of Christ, and for your generosity in sharing with them and with others through the proof provided by this service.And they will have deep affection for you in their prayers on your behalf because of the surpassing grace of God in you.Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift.

You always have the poor with you, and you can do what is good for them whenever you want, but you do not always have Me.

They asked only that we would remember the poor, which I made every effort to do.
