When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thine increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and hast given it unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they may eat within thy gates, and be filled;

And the Levite, (because he hath no part nor inheritance with thee,) and the stranger, and the fatherless, and the widow, which are within thy gates, shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hand which thou doest.

When thou cuttest down thine harvest in thy field, and hast forgot a sheaf in the field, thou shalt not go again to fetch it: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow: that the LORD thy God may bless thee in all the work of thine hands.

When thou gatherest the grapes of thy vineyard, thou shalt not glean it afterward: it shall be for the stranger, for the fatherless, and for the widow.

If I have withheld the poor from their desire, or have caused the eyes of the widow to fail;

(For from my youth he was brought up with me, as with a father, and I have guided her from my mother's womb;)

If his loins have not blessed me, and if he were not warmed with the fleece of my sheep;

For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.

I was also upright before him, and I kept myself from mine iniquity.

Judge me, O LORD; for I have walked in mine integrity: I have trusted also in the LORD; therefore I shall not slide.

For thy lovingkindness is before mine eyes: and I have walked in thy truth.

And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men.

For our rejoicing is this, the testimony of our conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly to you-ward.

The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not.

Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:

But whoso hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?

And hereby we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before him.

Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.

I will never forget thy precepts: for with them thou hast quickened me.

My zeal hath consumed me, because mine enemies have forgotten thy words.

I am small and despised: yet do not I forget thy precepts.

RESH. Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget thy law.

I have gone astray like a lost sheep; seek thy servant; for I do not forget thy commandments.

My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments:
