19 ^a“When you reap your harvest in your field and forget a sheaf in the field, you shall not go back to get it. It shall be for the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow, ^bthat the Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hands. 20 When you beat your olive trees, you shall not go over them again. It shall be for the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow. 21 When you gather the grapes of your vineyard, you shall not strip it afterward. It shall be for the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow.

Matthew 25:40

40 And ^hthe King will answer them, ⁱ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these ^jmy brothers, ^{▼▼Or brothers and sisters} you did it to me.’

Romans 12:13

13 ^lContribute to the needs of the saints and ^mseek to show hospitality.

2 Corinthians 8:5-11

5 and this, not as we expected, but they ⁿgave themselves first to the Lord and then by the will of God to us. 6 Accordingly, ^owe urged Titus that as he had started, so he should complete among you ^pthis act of grace. 7 But as ^qyou excel in everything—in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in all earnestness, and in our love for you ^{▼▼Some manuscripts in your love for us}— ^ssee that you excel in this act of grace also.

8 ^tI say this not as a command, but to prove by the earnestness of others that your love also is genuine. 9 For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ^uthough he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich. 10 And in this matter ^vI give my judgment: ^wthis benefits you, who ^xa year ago started not only to do this work but also to desire to do it. 11 So now finish doing it as well, so that your readiness in desiring it may be matched by your completing it out of what you have.
