7 If a brother of thine become poor within any of the gates in the Land which the Lord thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thy heart nor shut thy hand from thy brother that is poor. 8 But thou shalt open thy hand bountifully, and lend him sufficiently for his need wherewith he is pinched. 9 Beware that there be no point of peevishness in thy heart, that thou say not, the seventh year which is the year of respiting is at hand, and thereupon thou have a wicked eye against thy poor brother, so as thou give him nothing; and then he cry against thee to the Lord thy GOD, so as it become sin unto thee. 10. Thou shalt give him freely, and let not thy heart repine at thy giving unto him: for because of this the Lord thy God will bless thee in all thy works, and in all that ever thou puttest thy hand unto.
