9 Be cheerful with every gift you make, and when you pay your tithes, do it gladly.
10 Give to the Most High as he has given to you, just as generously as you can.
11 The Lord always repays and will do it many times over.
12 But don't try to bribe him or rely on offerings that you have obtained dishonestly. He will not accept them.The Lord is fair and does not show partiality.
13 He is not prejudiced against the poor; when someone prays who has been wronged, the Lord listens.
14 When orphans and widows pour out their prayers, he does not ignore them.
15 The tears running down a widow's cheek cry out in accusation against the one who has caused her distress.
