Bible Verses About The Poor: Despise not

He who despises his fellow sins, but he who shows compassion to the humble is happy.

Suppose a man comes into your synagogue wearing gold rings and fancy clothes, and also a poor man comes in dressed in rags.

If you show more respect to the man wearing the fancy clothes and say to him, “Have this good seat here,” while to the poor man you say, “You, stand over there,” or, “Sit down on the floor by my feet,”

then aren’t you creating distinctions among yourselves, and haven’t you made yourselves into judges with evil motives?
