For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.
For the poor {H34} shall never cease {H2308} out of {H7130} the land {H776}: therefore I command {H6680} thee, saying {H559}, Thou shalt open {H6605} thine hand {H3027} wide {H6605} unto thy brother {H251}, to thy poor {H6041}, and to thy needy {H34}, in thy land {H776}.
for there will always be poor people in the land. That is why I am giving you this order, 'You must open your hand to your poor and needy brother in your land.'
For there will never cease to be poor in the land; that is why I am commanding you to open wide your hand to your brother and to the poor and needy in your land.
For the poor will never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt surely open thy hand unto thy brother, to thy needy, and to thy poor, in thy land.
