Now whoever might have the world's goods, and might see his brother having need, and might close up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him? But whoever has this world's good, and sees his brother have need, and shuts up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwells the love of God in him? But whoso hath the world's goods, and beholdeth his brother in need, and shutteth up his compassion from him, how doth the love of God abide in him? But whoso may have the world's substance, and see his brother having need, and shut up his bowels from him, how abides the love of God in him? But whoso hath the world's goods, and beholdeth his brother in need, and shutteth up his compassion from him, how doth the love of God abide in him? But he who hath this world's good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him? But if any one has this world's wealth and sees that his brother man is in need, and yet hardens his heart against him--how can such a one continue to love God? But whoever has the world's goods, and sees his brother in need, and closes his heart of compassion against him, how does the love of God remain in him? and whoever may have the goods of the world, and may view his brother having need, and may shut up his bowels from him -- how doth the love of God remain in him?
