Thematic Bible: Give to


Thematic Bible



Instead, you are to open your hand to him and freely loan him enough for whatever need he has.

Then the Levite, who has no portion or inheritance among you, the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow within your gates may come, eat, and be satisfied. And the Lord your God will bless you in all the work of your hands that you do.

For there will never cease to be poor people in the land; that is why I am commanding you, ‘You must willingly open your hand to your afflicted and poor brother in your land.’


For if the eagerness is there, it is acceptable according to what one has, not according to what he does not have.




Give to him, and don’t have a stingy heart when you give, and because of this the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you do.





Do not give the life of Your dove to beasts;
do not forget the lives of Your poor people forever.

Do not let the oppressed turn away in shame;
let the poor and needy praise Your name.
