⁷ If anyone is poor^(A) among your fellow Israelites in any of the towns of the land the Lord your God is giving you, do not be hardhearted or tightfisted^(B) toward them.

⁸ Rather, be openhanded^(A) and freely lend them whatever they need.

¹⁰ Give generously to them and do so without a grudging heart;^(A) then because of this the Lord your God will bless^(B) you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to.
