Oh, the joys of those who are kind to the poor!
      The Lord rescues them when they are in trouble.
  The Lord protects them
      and keeps them alive.
   He gives them prosperity in the land
      and rescues them from their enemies.
  The Lord nurses them when they are sick
      and restores them to health.
- Psalm 41:1-3

 The generous will prosper;
      those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed.
- Proverbs 11:25
