as it is written, He hath scattered abroad, he hath given to the poor; His righteousness abideth for ever.

As it is said in the Writings, He has sent out far and wide, he has given to the poor; his righteousness is for ever.

καθως ειναι γεγραμμενον· Εσκορπισεν, εδωκεν εις τους πενητας· η δικαιοσυνη αυτου μενει εις τον αιωνα.

(As it is written, He hath dispersed abroad; he hath given to the poor: his righteousness remaineth for ever.
