11 For ^ythere will never cease to be poor in the land. Therefore I command you, ^s‘You shall open wide your hand to your brother, to the needy and to the poor, in your land.’

11 For ^zyou always have the poor with you, but ^ayou will not always have me.

7 For ^fyou always have the poor with you, and whenever ^gyou want, you can do good for them. But ^hyou will not always have me.

8 For the poor you always have with you, but you do not always have me.”
