Exodus 22:25-27

25

If thou lend money to any of my people that is poor by thee, thou shalt not be to him as an usurer, neither shalt thou lay upon him usury.

26

If thou at all take thy neighbour's raiment to pledge, thou shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth down:

27

For that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear; for I am gracious.

Exodus 23:1-11

1

Thou shalt not raise a false report: put not thine hand with the wicked to be an unrighteous witness.

2

Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment:

3

Neither shalt thou countenance a poor man in his cause.

4

If thou meet thine enemy's ox or his ass going astray, thou shalt surely bring it back to him again.

5

If thou see the ass of him that hateth thee lying under his burden, and wouldest forbear to help him, thou shalt surely help with him.

6

Thou shalt not wrest the judgment of thy poor in his cause.

7

Keep thee far from a false matter; and the innocent and righteous slay thou not: for I will not justify the wicked.

8

And thou shalt take no gift: for the gift blindeth the wise, and perverteth the words of the righteous.

9

Also thou shalt not oppress a stranger: for ye know the heart of a stranger, seeing ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.

10

And six years thou shalt sow thy land, and shalt gather in the fruits thereof:

11

But the seventh year thou shalt let it rest and lie still; that the poor of thy people may eat: and what they leave the beasts of the field shall eat. In like manner thou shalt deal with thy vineyard, and with thy oliveyard.

Leviticus 25:25-55

25

If thy brother be waxen poor, and hath sold away some of his possession, and if any of his kin come to redeem it, then shall he redeem that which his brother sold.

26

And if the man have none to redeem it, and himself be able to redeem it;

27

Then let him count the years of the sale thereof, and restore the overplus unto the man to whom he sold it; that he may return unto his possession.

28

But if he be not able to restore it to him, then that which is sold shall remain in the hand of him that hath bought it until the year of jubile: and in the jubile it shall go out, and he shall return unto his possession.

29

And if a man sell a dwelling house in a walled city, then he may redeem it within a whole year after it is sold; within a full year may he redeem it.

30

And if it be not redeemed within the space of a full year, then the house that is in the walled city shall be established for ever to him that bought it throughout his generations: it shall not go out in the jubile.

31

But the houses of the villages which have no wall round about them shall be counted as the fields of the country: they may be redeemed, and they shall go out in the jubile.

32

Notwithstanding the cities of the Levites, and the houses of the cities of their possession, may the Levites redeem at any time.

33

And if a man purchase of the Levites, then the house that was sold, and the city of his possession, shall go out in the year of jubile: for the houses of the cities of the Levites are their possession among the children of Israel.

34

But the field of the suburbs of their cities may not be sold; for it is their perpetual possession.

35

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.

36

Take thou no usury of him, or increase: but fear thy God; that thy brother may live with thee.

37

Thou shalt not give him thy money upon usury, nor lend him thy victuals for increase.

38

I am the LORD your God, which brought you forth out of the land of Egypt, to give you the land of Canaan, and to be your God.

39

And if thy brother that dwelleth by thee be waxen poor, and be sold unto thee; thou shalt not compel him to serve as a bondservant:

40

But as an hired servant, and as a sojourner, he shall be with thee, and shall serve thee unto the year of jubile.

41

And then shall he depart from thee, both he and his children with him, and shall return unto his own family, and unto the possession of his fathers shall he return.

42

For they are my servants, which I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: they shall not be sold as bondmen.

43

Thou shalt not rule over him with rigour; but shalt fear thy God.

44

Both thy bondmen, and thy bondmaids, which thou shalt have, shall be of the heathen that are round about you; of them shall ye buy bondmen and bondmaids.

45

Moreover of the children of the strangers that do sojourn among you, of them shall ye buy, and of their families that are with you, which they begat in your land: and they shall be your possession.

46

And ye shall take them as an inheritance for your children after you, to inherit them for a possession; they shall be your bondmen for ever: but over your brethren the children of Israel, ye shall not rule one over another with rigour.

47

And if a sojourner or stranger wax rich by thee, and thy brother that dwelleth by him wax poor, and sell himself unto the stranger or sojourner by thee, or to the stock of the stranger's family:

48

After that he is sold he may be redeemed again; one of his brethren may redeem him:

49

Either his uncle, or his uncle's son, may redeem him, or any that is nigh of kin unto him of his family may redeem him; or if he be able, he may redeem himself.

50

And he shall reckon with him that bought him from the year that he was sold to him unto the year of jubile: and the price of his sale shall be according unto the number of years, according to the time of an hired servant shall it be with him.

51

If there be yet many years behind, according unto them he shall give again the price of his redemption out of the money that he was bought for.

52

And if there remain but few years unto the year of jubile, then he shall count with him, and according unto his years shall he give him again the price of his redemption.

53

And as a yearly hired servant shall he be with him: and the other shall not rule with rigour over him in thy sight.

54

And if he be not redeemed in these years, then he shall go out in the year of jubile, both he, and his children with him.

55

For unto me the children of Israel are servants; they are my servants whom I brought forth out of the land of Egypt: I am the LORD your God.

Deuteronomy 15:1-15

1

At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release.

2

And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth ought unto his neighbour shall release it; he shall not exact it of his neighbour, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD's release.

3

Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it again: but that which is thine with thy brother thine hand shall release;

4

Save when there shall be no poor among you; for the LORD shall greatly bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it:

5

Only if thou carefully hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command thee this day.

6

For the LORD thy God blesseth thee, as he promised thee: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over thee.

7

If there be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine hand from thy poor brother:

8

But thou shalt open thine hand wide unto him, and shalt surely lend him sufficient for his need, in that which he wanteth.

9

Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou givest him nought; and he cry unto the LORD against thee, and it be sin unto thee.

10

Thou shalt surely give him, and thine heart shall not be grieved when thou givest unto him: because that for this thing the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy works, and in all that thou puttest thine hand unto.

11

For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.

12

And if thy brother, an Hebrew man, or an Hebrew woman, be sold unto thee, and serve thee six years; then in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee.

13

And when thou sendest him out free from thee, thou shalt not let him go away empty:

14

Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and out of thy floor, and out of thy winepress: of that wherewith the LORD thy God hath blessed thee thou shalt give unto him.

15

And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee: therefore I command thee this thing to day.

Psalms 10:1-18

1

Why standest thou afar off, O LORD? why hidest thou thyself in times of trouble?

2

The wicked in his pride doth persecute the poor: let them be taken in the devices that they have imagined.

3

For the wicked boasteth of his heart's desire, and blesseth the covetous, whom the LORD abhorreth.

4

The wicked, through the pride of his countenance, will not seek after God: God is not in all his thoughts.

5

His ways are always grievous; thy judgments are far above out of his sight: as for all his enemies, he puffeth at them.

6

He hath said in his heart, I shall not be moved: for I shall never be in adversity.

7

His mouth is full of cursing and deceit and fraud: under his tongue is mischief and vanity.

8

He sitteth in the lurking places of the villages: in the secret places doth he murder the innocent: his eyes are privily set against the poor.

9

He lieth in wait secretly as a lion in his den: he lieth in wait to catch the poor: he doth catch the poor, when he draweth him into his net.

10

He croucheth, and humbleth himself, that the poor may fall by his strong ones.

11

He hath said in his heart, God hath forgotten: he hideth his face; he will never see it.

12

Arise, O LORD; O God, lift up thine hand: forget not the humble.

13

Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? he hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it.

14

Thou hast seen it; for thou beholdest mischief and spite, to requite it with thy hand: the poor committeth himself unto thee; thou art the helper of the fatherless.

15

Break thou the arm of the wicked and the evil man: seek out his wickedness till thou find none.

16

The LORD is King for ever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land.

17

LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear:

18

To judge the fatherless and the oppressed, that the man of the earth may no more oppress.

Psalms 72:1-20

1

Give the king thy judgments, O God, and thy righteousness unto the king's son.

2

He shall judge thy people with righteousness, and thy poor with judgment.

3

The mountains shall bring peace to the people, and the little hills, by righteousness.

4

He shall judge the poor of the people, he shall save the children of the needy, and shall break in pieces the oppressor.

5

They shall fear thee as long as the sun and moon endure, throughout all generations.

6

He shall come down like rain upon the mown grass: as showers that water the earth.

7

In his days shall the righteous flourish; and abundance of peace so long as the moon endureth.

8

He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.

9

They that dwell in the wilderness shall bow before him; and his enemies shall lick the dust.

10

The kings of Tarshish and of the isles shall bring presents: the kings of Sheba and Seba shall offer gifts.

11

Yea, all kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve him.

12

For he shall deliver the needy when he crieth; the poor also, and him that hath no helper.

13

He shall spare the poor and needy, and shall save the souls of the needy.

14

He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight.

15

And he shall live, and to him shall be given of the gold of Sheba: prayer also shall be made for him continually; and daily shall he be praised.

16

There shall be an handful of corn in the earth upon the top of the mountains; the fruit thereof shall shake like Lebanon: and they of the city shall flourish like grass of the earth.

17

His name shall endure for ever: his name shall be continued as long as the sun: and men shall be blessed in him: all nations shall call him blessed.

18

Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, who only doeth wondrous things.

19

And blessed be his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled with his glory; Amen, and Amen.

20

The prayers of David the son of Jesse are ended.

Matthew 5:1-16

1

And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:

2

And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

3

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

4

Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

5

Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

6

Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

7

Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

8

Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

9

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

10

Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11

Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

12

Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

13

Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

14

Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

15

Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

16

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 19:16-26

16

And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?

17

And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.

18

He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,

19

Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

20

The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept from my youth up: what lack I yet?

21

Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me.

22

But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.

23

Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.

24

And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

25

When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?

26

But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

6

Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,

7

There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat.

8

But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste?

9

For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.

10

When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.

11

For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always.

12

For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial.

13

Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her.

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,

19

To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.

20

And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.

21

And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.

Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.

22

Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.

1 Corinthians 13:1-13

1

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.

2

And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.

3

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.

4

Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,

5

Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

6

Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

7

Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.

8

Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

9

For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.

10

But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.

11

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.

12

For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

13

And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

James 2:1-17

1

My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons.

2

For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment;

3

And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool:

4

Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil thoughts?

5

Hearken, my beloved brethren, Hath not God chosen the poor of this world rich in faith, and heirs of the kingdom which he hath promised to them that love him?

6

But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?

7

Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called?

8

If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:

9

But if ye have respect to persons, ye commit sin, and are convinced of the law as transgressors.

10

For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all.

11

For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.

12

So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.

13

For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.

14

What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?

15

If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,

16

And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?

17

Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.

Revelation 3:14-22

14

And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;

15

I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

16

So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

17

Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

18

I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

19

As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

20

Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

21

Revelation 13:9-18

9

If any man have an ear, let him hear.

10

He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

11

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

12

And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.

13

And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,

14

And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.

15

And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

16

And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:

17

And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.

18

Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.
