Poverty

Parents

2. The rich and poor meet together: the Lord is the maker of them all.
27. He that giveth unto the poor shall not lack: but he that hideth his eyes shall have many a curse.
8. He that by usury and unjust gain increaseth his substance, he shall gather it for him that will pity the poor.
9. He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed, for he giveth of his bread to the poor.
