and the Lord will repay him for his good deed.
21:13 The one who shuts his ears to the cry of the poor,
he too will cry out and will not be answered.

and the one who gives to the rich – both end up only in poverty.
28:6 A poor person who walks in his integrity is better
than one who is perverse in his ways even though he is rich.
28:27 The one who gives to the poor will not lack,
but whoever shuts his eyes to them will receive many curses.
30:9 lest I become satisfied and act deceptively
and say, “Who is the Lord?”
Or lest I become poor and steal
and demean the name of my God.
