Psalms 41:1 Cross References - LXX2012

¹ (42) For the end, [a Psalm] for instruction, for the sons of Core. As the hart earnestly desires the fountains of water, so my soul earnestly longs for you, O God.

⁷ And if there shall be in the midst of you a poor [man] of your brethren in one of your cities in the land, which the Lord your God gives you, you shall not harden your heart, neither shall you by any means close up your hand from your brother who is in lack. ⁸ You shall surely open your hands to him, and shall lend to him as much as he wants according to his need. ⁹ Take heed to yourself that there be not a secret thing in your heart, an iniquity, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, draws near; and your eye shall be evil to your brother that is in lack, and you shall not give to him, and he shall cry against you to the Lord, and there shall be great sin in you. ¹⁰ You shall surely give to him, and you shall lend him as much as he wants, according as he is in need; and you shall not grudge in your heart as you give to him, because on this account the Lord your God will bless you in all your works, and in all things on which you shall lay your hand. ¹¹ For the poor shall not fail off your land, therefore I charge you to do this thing, saying, You shall surely open your hands to your poor brother, and to him that is distressed upon your land.

¹² For I saved the poor out of the hand of the oppressor, and helped the fatherless who had no helper. ¹³ Let the blessing of the perishing one come upon me; yes, the mouth of the widow has blessed me. ¹⁴ Also I put on righteousness, and clothed myself with judgment like a mantle. ¹⁵ I was the eye of the blind, and the foot of the lame. ¹⁶ I was the father of the helpless; and I searched out the cause which I knew not.

¹⁶ But the helpless missed not whatever need they had, and I did not cause the eye of the widow to fail. ¹⁷ And if too I ate my morsel alone, and did not impart [of it] to the orphan; ¹⁸ (for I nourished [them] as a father from my youth and guided [them] from my mother's womb.) ¹⁹ And if too I overlooked the naked as he was perishing, and did not clothe him; ²⁰ and if the poor did not bless me, and their shoulders were [not] warmed with the fleece of my lambs;

¹⁹ Let not them that are mine enemies without a cause rejoice against me; who hate me for nothing, and wink with their eyes.

¹⁹ But mine enemies live, and are mightier than I: and they that hate me unjustly are multiplied.

³ Against your people they have craftily imagined a device, and have taken counsel against your saints. ⁴ They have said, Come, and let us utterly destroy them out of the nation; and let the name of Israel be remembered no more at all.

⁹ who settles the barren [woman] in a house, [as] a mother rejoicing over children.

²¹ He that dishonors the needy sins: but he that has pity on the poor is most blessed.

¹⁴ The anger of a king is a messenger of death; but a wise man will pacify him.

¹⁷ He that has pity on the poor lends to the Lord; and he will recompense to him according to his gift.

¹ Send forth your bread upon the face of the water: for you shall find it after many days. ² Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for you know not what evil there shall be upon the earth.

⁷ Break your bread to the hungry, and lead the unsheltered poor to your house: if you see one naked, clothe [him], and you shall not disregard the relations of your own seed. ⁸ Then shall your light break forth as the morning, and your health shall speedily spring forth: and your righteousness shall go before you, and the glory of God shall compass you. ⁹ Then shall you cry, and God shall listen to you; while you are yet speaking he will say, Behold, I am here. If you remove from you the band, and the stretching forth of the hands, and murmuring speech; ¹⁰ and [if] you give bread to the hungry from your heart, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall your light spring up in darkness, and your darkness [shall be] as noon-day: ¹¹ and your God shall be with you continually, and you shall be satisfied according as your soul desires; and your bones shall be made fat, and shall be as a well-watered garden, and as a fountain [from] which the water has not failed.
