7
Give alms of thy substance; and when thou givest alms, let not thine eye be envious, neither turn thy face from any poor, and the face of God shall not be turned away from thee.
8
If thou hast abundance, give alms accordingly; if thou have but a little, be not afraid to give according to that little.
9
For thou layest up a good treasure for thyself against the day of necessity,
10
because almsgiving doth deliver from death and suffereth not to come into darkness.
11
For alms is a good gift unto all who give it in the sight of the Most High.
