O Lord, Be Gracious to Me

To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David.

1 ^dBlessed is the one who considers the poor! ^{▼▼Or weak}
^fIn the day of trouble the Lord delivers him;
2 the Lord protects him and keeps him alive;
he is called blessed in the land;
you ^gdo not give him up to the will of his enemies.
3 The Lord sustains him on his sickbed;
in his illness you restore him to full health. ^{▼▼Hebrew you turn all his bed}

Psalms 112:5-9

5 It is well with the man who ⁱdeals generously and lends;
who conducts his affairs with justice.
6 For the righteous will ^jnever be moved;
^khe will be remembered forever.
7 He is not ^lafraid of bad news;
his ^mheart is firm, ⁿtrusting in the Lord.
8 His heart is steady; he will not be afraid,
until he looks in triumph on his adversaries.
9 He has ^odistributed freely; he has given to the poor;
his righteousness endures forever;
his ^phorn is exalted in honor.

Proverbs 19:17

17 ^qWhoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord,
and he ^rwill repay him for his ^sdeed.

2 Corinthians 9:6-11

The Cheerful Giver

6 The point is this: ^wwhoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully ^{▼▼Greek with blessings; twice in this verse} will also reap bountifully. 7 Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, ^ynot reluctantly or under compulsion, for ^zGod loves a cheerful giver. 8 And ^aaGod is able to make all grace abound to you, so that having all sufficiency ^{▼▼Or all contentment} in all things at all times, you may abound in every good work. 9 As it is written,

^ac“He has distributed freely, he has given to the poor;
his righteousness endures forever.”
10 He who supplies ^adseed to the sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and ^aeincrease the harvest of your righteousness. 11 ^afYou will be enriched in every way to be generous in every way, which ^agthrough us will produce thanksgiving to God.

Hebrews 13:16

16 Do not neglect to do good and ^ahto share what you have, for such ^aisacrifices are pleasing to God.
