"Seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widow." "Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble. The Lord will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and Thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies." "He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord; and that which he hath given will He pay him again." Isaiah 1:17; Psalm 41:1, 2; Proverbs 19:17.

»Læg vind på, hvad ret er; hjælp fortrykte, skaf faderløse ret, for enkens sag!"»Salig den mand, der tager sig af de svage, ham frelser Herren på ulykkens dag; Herren vogter ham, holder ham i live, det går ham vel i landet, han giver ham ikke i fjendevold."»Er man god mod den ringe, låner man Herren, han gengælder en, hvad godt man har gjort.« Es. 1,17; Sl. 41,1-2; Ordsp. 19,17.
