  • Deut 15:7-9 : 7 If there is a poor person among your brothers within any of your gates in the land the Lord your God is giving you, do not harden your heart or shut your hand against your poor brother. 8 Instead, you shall freely open your hand to him and generously lend him whatever he needs. 9 Be careful not to harbor this wicked thought in your heart: 'The seventh year, the year of release, is near,' and you look grudgingly on your poor brother and give him nothing. He will cry out to the Lord against you, and you will be guilty of sin. 10 You shall surely give to him, and your heart shall not be grieved when you give to him, because for this thing the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you undertake. 11 For there will never cease to be poor people in the land.
