He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the LORD; and that which he hath given will he pay him again.
Quien muestra bondad y ayuda al pobre, es como si le prestara dinero al SEÑOR mismo; y Dios le pagará todo lo que esa persona haya dado.
Ayudar a los pobres es como prestarle a Dios, quien siempre devuelve lo que se da con generosidad.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In ancient Israel, caring for the poor was a fundamental aspect of the Mosaic Law and the teachings of the prophets, as emphasized in books like Deuteronomy and Isaiah, where God commanded His people to show compassion to the needy. This proverb, part of the wisdom literature attributed to King Solomon, portrays acts of kindness to the poor as loans to God Himself, with the assurance of divine repayment, reflecting the cultural value of charity and the belief in God's justice. Such teachings were meant to guide daily life in a society where economic disparities were common and reliance on God's provision was central.
