Ecclesiasticus 29:8 Context
6If he preuaile, he shall hardly receiue the halfe, and he will count as if he had found it: if not; he hath depriued him of his money, and he hath gotten him an enemy without cause: he payeth him with cursings, and raylings: and for honour he will pay him disgrace. 7Many therefore haue refused to lend for other mens ill dealing, fearing to be defrauded. 8Yet haue thou patience with a man in poore estate, and delay not to shew him mercy. 9Helpe the poore for the commandements sake, and turne him not away because of his pouertie. 10Lose thy money for thy brother and thy friend, and let it not rust vnder a stone to be lost.
