Tobit 4:6 In-Context

4 Remember her, my son, because she faced many dangers for you while you were in her womb. And when she dies, bury her beside me in the same grave.

5 "Revere the Lord all your days, my son, and refuse to sin or to transgress his commandments. Live uprightly all the days of your life, and do not walk in the ways of wrongdoing;

6 for those who act in accordance with truth will prosper in all their activities. To all those who practice righteousness

7 give alms from your possessions, and do not let your eye begrudge the gift when you make it. Do not turn your face away from anyone who is poor, and the face of God will not be turned away from you.

8 If you have many possessions, make your gift from them in proportion; if few, do not be afraid to give according to the little you have.
