ગુજરાતીપુનર્નિયમ ૧૫:૭
જે દેશ યહોવાહ તમારા ઈશ્વર તમને આપે છે, તેમાં તમારા ઘરમાં રહેતો તમારો કોઈ જ્ઞાતિજન ગરીબ હોય તો તમે તમારું હૃદય કઠણ ન કરો.
हिन्दीव्यवस्थाविवरण १५:७
“जो देश तेरा परमेश्वर यहोवा तुझे देता है उसके किसी फाटक के भीतर यदि तेरे भाइयों में से कोई तेरे पास दरिद्र हो, तो अपने उस दरिद्र भाई के लिये न तो अपना हृदय कठोर करना, और न अपनी मुट्ठी कड़ी करना; (यूह. 3:17)

In context

5if only you diligently listen to the LORD your God’s voice, to observe to do all this commandment which I command you today.

6For the LORD your God will bless you, as he promised you. You will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow. You will rule over many nations, but they will not rule over you.

7If a poor man, one of your brothers, is with you within any of your gates in your land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall not harden your heart, nor shut your hand from your poor brother;

8but you shall surely open your hand to him, and shall surely lend him sufficient for his need, which he lacks.

9Beware that there not be a wicked thought in your heart, saying, “The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand,” and your eye be evil against your poor brother and you give him nothing; and he cry to the LORD against you, and it be sin to you.
