“there is a generation whose teeth are swords and whose jaws are knives, devouring the oppressed from the earth and the needy from among men.”

“He saves the needy from the sword in their mouth and from the clutches of the powerful.”
“If there is a poor man among your brothers within any of the gates in the land that the LORD your God is giving you, then you are not to harden your heart or shut your hand from your poor brother.”
“He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the dump”
“For there will never cease to be poor in the land; that is why I am commanding you to open wide your hand to your brother and to the poor and needy in your land.”
“but in the seventh year you must let it rest and lie fallow, so that the poor among your people may eat from the field and the wild animals may consume what they leave. Do the same with your vineyard and olive grove.”
