Dispersed

For the poor ye have always with you, and whenever ye will, ye can do good to them; but me ye have not always.

But give what they contain in alms, and lo! all is clean to you.

Sell what ye have, and give alms. Make for yourselves purses which wax not old, treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, nor moth destroyeth.

Herein we know love, in that he laid down his life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.

Righteousness

that thine alms may be in secret; and thy Father, who seeth in secret, will reward thee.

And he said also to him who invited him, When thou makest a dinner or a supper, do not invite thy friends, nor thy brothers, nor thy kinsmen, nor rich neighbors; lest they too invite thee in return, and a recompense be made thee.

And I say to you, Make to yourselves friends with the unrighteous mammon; that, when it faileth, ye may be received into everlasting habitations.

For God is not unjust so as to forget your work, and the love which ye showed toward his name, in that ye ministered and are still ministering to the saints.

He that is unjust, let him be unjust still, and he that is filthy, let him be filthy still; and he that is righteous, let him do righteousness still, and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
