Sirach 29:9

⁷Many therefore have refused to lend for other men’s ill dealing, fearing to be defrauded.

⁸Yet have thou patience with a man in poor estate, and delay not to shew him mercy.

— Sirach 29:9 —

¹⁰Lose thy money for thy brother and thy friend, and let it not rust under a stone to be lost.

¹¹Lay up thy treasure according to the commandments of the most High, and it shall bring thee more profit than gold.
