Proverbs 21:26

Contemporary English Version (Anglicised) 2012

But people who obey God are always generous.

See the chapter Copy

Life will go well for those who freely lend and are honest in business.

They will always be remembered and greatly praised, because they were kind and freely gave to the poor.

They gladly give and lend, and their children turn out good.

When people ask you for something, give it to them. When they want to borrow money, lend it to them.

If you are a thief, stop stealing. Be honest and work hard, so you will have something to give to people in need.
