⁷ They take their rest at night without clothing, and have no cover in the cold.

²⁶ If ever you take your neighbour's clothing in exchange for the use of your money, let him have it back before the sun goes down:

²⁷ For it is the only thing he has for covering his skin; what is he to go to sleep in? and when his cry comes up to me, I will give ear, for my mercy is great.

⁶ For you have taken your brother's goods when he was not in your debt, and have taken away the clothing of those who have need of it.

¹¹ But keep outside till he comes out and gives it to you.

¹² If he is a poor man, do not keep his property all night;

¹³ But be certain to give it back to him when the sun goes down, so that he may have his clothing for sleeping in, and will give you his blessing: and this will be put to your account as righteousness before the Lord your God.

⁴⁰ This was my condition, wasted by heat in the day and by the bitter cold at night; and sleep went from my eyes.

¹⁰ Others go about without clothing, and though they have no food, they get in the grain from the fields.

¹⁹ If I saw one near to death for need of clothing, and that the poor had nothing covering him;

²⁰ If his back did not give me a blessing, and the wool of my sheep did not make him warm;

²¹ She has no fear of the snow for her family, for all those in her house are clothed in red.

⁷ Is it not to give your bread to those in need, and to let the poor who have no resting-place come into your house? to put a robe on the unclothed one when you see him, and not to keep your eyes shut for fear of seeing his flesh?

³¹ And so the church through all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria had peace and was made strong; and, living in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit, was increased greatly.
