Our first reading today gives us a variety of verses from
the Book of Proverbs. Go to the Book of Proverbs, and take a look at some of
the verses that tell us how to deal with the poor.
Even by his neighbor
the poor man is hated, but the friends of the rich are many. 14:20
He who shuts his ear
to the cry of the poor will himself call and not be heard. 21:13
Give me neither
poverty nor riches, lest being full I deny you, or being poor, I steal.
30:8
He who has compassion
on the poor lends to the Lord who will repay him. 19:17
He sins who despises
the hungry, but happy the man who is good to the poor. 14:20
Better the man who
walks with integrity, than he who is crooked and rich. 19:1
