Deuteronomy 15:9-11

9BewareH8104 that there be not a thoughtH1697 in thy wickedH1100 heartH3824, sayingH559, The seventhH7651 yearH8141, the yearH8141 of releaseH8059, is at handH7126; and thine eyeH5869 be evilH7489 against thy poorH34 brotherH251, and thou givestH5414 him nought; and he cryH7121 unto YhwhH3068 against thee, and it be sinH2399 unto thee.12

10Thou shalt surelyH5414 giveH5414 him, and thine heartH3824 shall not be grievedH3415 when thou givestH5414 unto him: becauseH1558 that for this thingH1697 YhwhH3068 thy GodH430 shall blessH1288 thee in all thy worksH4639, and in all that thou puttestH4916 thine handH3027 unto.

11For the poorH34 shall never ceaseH2308 out ofH7130 the landH776: therefore I commandH6680 thee, sayingH559, Thou shalt openH6605 thine handH3027 wideH6605 unto thy brotherH251, to thy poorH6041, and to thy needyH34, in thy landH776.
