Zechariah 7:7-10

7 ⁱWere not these the words that the Lord proclaimed ^jby the former prophets, when Jerusalem was inhabited and prosperous, ^kwith her cities around her, and the ^lSouth and the ^mlowland were inhabited?'”

8 And the word of the Lord came to Zechariah, saying, 9 “Thus says the Lord of hosts, ⁿRender true judgments, show kindness and mercy to one another, 10 ^odo not oppress the widow, the fatherless, the sojourner, ^por the poor, and ^qlet none of you devise evil against another in your heart.”

Zechariah 8:16-17

Malachi 3:5

I will be ^wa swift witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, against those ^xwho oppress the hired worker in his wages, ^ythe widow and the fatherless, against those who thrust aside the sojourner, and do not fear me, says the Lord of hosts.

Mark 12:29-34

29 Jesus answered, “The most important is, ^z‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, ^aathe Lord is one. 30 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ 31 ^abThe second is this: ^ac‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment ^adgreater than these.” 32 And the scribe said to him, “You are right, Teacher. You have truly said that ^aehe is one, and ^afthere is no other besides him. 33 And to love him with all the heart and with all ^agthe understanding and with all the strength, and to love one’s neighbor as oneself, ^ahis much more than all ^aiwhole burnt offerings and sacrifices.” 34 And when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, he said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” ^ajAnd after that no one dared to ask him any more questions.
