Proverbs 3:27 Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do it. Many are the forms of this dishonesty, borrowing without payment, evading the taxes, keeping back the labourer's hire. But the rule probes deeper than this surface. If we have no legal debt to any, we have a gospel debt to all. Even the poor is bound by this universal law of his poorer neighbour. Every one has a claim upon our love. Every opportunity of doing good is our call to do so. (C. Bridges, M. A.) Parallel Verses KJV: Withhold not good from them to whom it is due, when it is in the power of thine hand to do it.WEB: Don't withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do it. |
