^27 (A)Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due,^[a]
    when it is in your power to do it.

^24 (A)One gives ^(B)freely, yet grows all the richer;
    another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want.
^25 (C)Whoever brings blessing ^(D)will be enriched,
    and ^(E)one who waters will himself be watered.

²⁶ All day long he craves and craves,
    but the righteous ^(A)gives and does not hold back.

^9 (A)Whoever has a bountiful^[a] eye will be blessed,
    for he ^(B)shares his bread with the poor.

^6 (A)Do not eat the bread of a man who is ^(B)stingy;^{[a]
    (C)}do not desire his delicacies,

¹⁴ Like ^(A)clouds and wind without rain
    is a man who ^(B)boasts of a gift he does not give.

^21 (A)If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat,
    and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink,
²² for you will heap ^(B)burning coals on his head,
    and the Lord will reward you.

²⁷ Whoever ^(A)gives to the poor will not want,
    but he who ^(B)hides his eyes will get many a curse.
