Be not faint-hearted in your prayer; The Wisdom of Jesus the Son of Sirach 7:10 Also to the poor man stretch out your hand, The Wisdom of Jesus the Son of Sirach 7:32-33 Give to the Most High according as he has given; The Wisdom of Jesus the Son of Sirach 35:10-11 Let not your hand be stretched out to receive, and closed when you should repay. The Wisdom of Jesus the Son of Sirach 4:31 Incline your ear to a poor man, and answer him with peaceful words in meekness. The Wisdom of Jesus the Son of Sirach 4:8 1 My son, deprive not the poor of his living, The Wisdom of Jesus the Son of Sirach 4:1-4 Do not rejoice unless you have done well. Thomas à Kempis "The Imitation Of Christ" One who gives to the poor has no lack; but one who closes his eyes will have many curses. {11:24} There is one who scatters, and increases yet more. There is one who withholds more than is appropriate, but gains poverty. {11:25} The liberal soul shall be made fat. He who waters shall be watered also himself. Proverbs 11:24-25 {41:1} Blessed is he who considers the poor. Yahweh will deliver him in the day of evil. {41:2} Yahweh will preserve him, and keep him alive. He shall be blessed on the earth, and he will not surrender him to the will of his enemies. {41:3} Yahweh will sustain him on his sickbed, and restore him from his bed of illness. The Psalms 41:1-3 {15:10} You shall surely give him, and your heart shall not be grieved when you give to him; because that for this thing Yahweh your God will bless you in all your work, and in all that you put your hand to. {15:11} For the poor will never cease out of the land: therefore I command you, saying, You shall surely open your hand to your brother, to your needy, and to your poor, in your land. Deuteronomy 15:10-11 Do what is good and no evil shall touch you. The Book of Tobit, 12:7 He who has pity on the poor lends to Yahweh; he will reward him. Proverbs 19:17 Prayer is good with fasting and alms and righteousness. A little with righteousness is better than much with unrighteousness. It is better to give alms than to store up gold, for alms can deliver from death and will purge away all sin. Those who practice almsgiving and righteousness shall be filled with life. The Book of Tobit, 12:8-9 ...for there is no man without fault, no man without burden, no man sufficient to himself nor wise enough. Hence we must support one another, console one another, mutually help, counsel, and advise. ...and according to your abundance give alms; and do not let your eye be envious, when you give alms. The Book of Tobit 4:16 Give alms from your resources; and when you give alms, do not let your eye be envious, nor turn your face from any of the poor, and then the face of God shall not be turned away from you. If you have abundance, give alms accordingly; if you have only a little, do not be afraid to give according to that little; for you will store up a good treasure for yourself against the day of necessity, because alms deliver from death and preserve from falling into darkness. The Book of Tobit 4:7-10 For judgment is without mercy to him who has shown no mercy. Therefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable to you, and break off your sins by righteousness, and your iniquities by showing mercy to the poor; if there may be a lengthening of your tranquility. Daniel 4:27
