Bible on Poverty

But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land;

Which devour widows’ houses, and for a shew make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation.

I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.

If any man or woman that believeth have widows, let them relieve them, and let not the church be charged; that it may relieve them that are widows indeed.

And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.
