Proverbs 19:17

17 aWhoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord,
and he bwill repay him for his cdeed.

Isaiah 32:8

8But he who is noble plans noble things,
and on noble things he stands.

Isaiah 58:7-11

7Is it not dto share your bread with the hungry
and bring the homeless poor into your house;
when you see the naked, to cover him,
eand not to hide yourself from your own flesh?
 8 fThen shall your light break forth like the dawn,
gand your healing shall spring up speedily;
hyour righteousness shall go before you;
ithe glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard.
 9Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer;
you shall cry, and he will say, ‘Here I am.’
If you take away jthe yoke from your midst,
kthe pointing of the finger, and speaking wickedness,
 10 lif you pour yourself out for the hungry
and satisfy the desire of the afflicted,
mthen shall your light rise in the darkness
and your gloom be as the noonday.
 11And the Lord will guide you continually
and satisfy your desire in scorched places
and make your bones strong;
and you shall be nlike a watered garden,
like a spring of water,
whose waters do not fail.

Luke 6:35

35But olove your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return, and your reward will be great, and pyou will be sons of qthe Most High, for rhe is kind to the ungrateful and the evil.

Luke 6:38

38 sgive, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put tinto your lap. For uwith the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”

Luke 14:13-14

13But when you give a feast, vinvite wthe poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, 14and you will be blessed, because they cannot repay you. For you will be repaid xat ythe resurrection of the just.”

2 Corinthians 9:6-8

The Cheerful Giver

6The point is this: zwhoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows bountifully ▼
▼Greek with blessings; twice in this verse
 will also reap bountifully. 7Each one must give as he has decided in his heart, abnot reluctantly or under compulsion, for acGod loves a cheerful giver. 8And adGod 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.
