7 “If one of your brothers becomes poor among you in one of your cities of the land that Jehovah your God is giving you, do not harden your heart or be tightfisted toward your poor brother.+

10 You should generously give to him,+ and you* should not give to him grudgingly, for this is why Jehovah your God will bless your every deed and undertaking.+

8 or the one who encourages, let him give encouragement;+ the one who distributes, let him do it liberally;+ the one who presides, let him do it diligently;*+ the one who shows mercy, let him do it cheerfully.+
