Generosidade

42 Give to him that asketh of thee and from him that would borrow of thee turn not away.

7 Every one as he hath determined in his heart, not with sadness, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

30 Give to every one that asketh thee, and of him that taketh away thy goods, ask them not again.

2 Therefore when thou dost an almsdeed, sound not a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may be honoured by men. Amen I say to you, they have received their reward.

3 But when thou dost alms, let not thy left hand know what thy right hand doth.

4 That thy alms may be in secret, and thy Father who seeth in secret will repay thee.

40 And the king answering, shall say to them: Amen I say to you, as long as you did it to one of these my least brethren, you did it to me.

13 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father from heaven give the good Spirit to them that ask him?

38 Give, and it shall be given to you: good measure and pressed down and shaken together and running over shall they give into your bosom. For with the same measure that you shall mete withal, it shall be measured to you again.

9 Honour the Lord with thy substance, and give him of the first of all thy fruits :

10 And thy barns shall be filled with abundance, and thy presses shall run over with wine.

15 And if a brother or sister be naked, and want daily food:

16 And one of you say to them: Go in peace, be ye warmed and filled; yet give them not those things that are necessary for the body, what shall it profit?

17 So faith also, if it have not works, is dead in itself.

13 He that stoppeth his ear against the cry of the poor, shall also cry himself and shall not be heard.

5 But if any of you want wisdom, let him ask of God, who giveth to all men abundantly, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

25 The soul which blesseth, shall be made fat: and he that inebriateth, shall be inebriated also himself.

5 Acceptable is the man that showeth mercy and lendeth: he shall order his words with judgment:

27 Do not withhold him from doing good, who is able: if thou art able, do good thyself also.

38 Give, and it shall be given to you: good measure and pressed down and shaken together and running over shall they give into your bosom. For with the same measure that you shall mete withal, it shall be measured to you again.

10 And he that ministereth seed to the sower, will both give you bread to eat, and will multiply your seed, and increase the growth of the fruits of your justice:

11 That being enriched in all things, you may abound unto all simplicity, which worketh through us thanksgiving to God.

29 It is he that giveth strength to the weary, and increaseth force and might to them that are not.

12 For if the will be forward, it is accepted according to that which a man hath, not according to that which he hath not.

10 Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in my house, and try me in this, saith the Lord: if I open not unto you the flood-gates of heaven, and pour you out a blessing even to abundance.

11 There will not be wanting poor in the land of thy habitation: therefore I command thee to open thy hand to thy needy and poor brother, that liveth in the land.

6 Now this I say: He who soweth sparingly, shall also reap sparingly: and he who soweth in blessings, shall also reap blessings.

7 Every one as he hath determined in his heart, not with sadness, or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.

8 And God is able to make all grace abound in you; that ye always, having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work,

9 As it is written: He hath dispersed abroad, he hath given to the poor: his justice remaineth for ever.

10 And he that ministereth seed to the sower, will both give you bread to eat, and will multiply your seed, and increase the growth of the fruits of your justice:

11 That being enriched in all things, you may abound unto all simplicity, which worketh through us thanksgiving to God.

12 Because the administration of this office doth not only supply the want of the saints, but aboundeth also by many thanksgivings in the Lord,

24 Some distribute their own goods, and grow richer: others take away what is not their own, and are always in want.

25 The soul which blesseth, shall be made fat: and he that inebriateth, shall be inebriated also himself.
