1 If you do good, know to whom you do it; And your good deeds shall have thanks.
2 Do good to a godly man, and you shall find a recompense; And if not from him, yet from the Most High.
3 There shall no good come to him that continueth to do evil, Nor to him that gives no alms.
4 Give to the godly man, And help not the sinner.
5 Do good to one that is lowly, And give not to an ungodly man: Keep back his bread, and give it not to him, Lest he overmaster you thereby: For you shall receive twice as much evil For all the good you shall have done to him.
6 For the Most High also hates sinners, And will repay vengeance to the ungodly.
7 Give to the good man, And help not the sinner.
