32 Stretch forth your hand to the poor,
    so that your blessing may be complete.
33 Give graciously to all the living,
    and withhold not kindness from the dead.
34 Do not fail those who weep,
    but mourn with those who mourn.
35 Do not shrink from visiting a sick man,
    because for such deeds you will be loved.
