8sin autem, fraudabit illum pecunia sua, et possidebit illum inimicum gratis: Generosity. Sir.29.8-13
9et convitia et maledicta reddet illi, et pro honore et beneficio reddet illi contumeliam.  
10Multi non causa nequitiæ non fœnerati sunt, sed fraudari gratis timuerunt.  
11Verumtamen super humilem animo fortior esto, et pro eleemosyna non trahas illum.  
12Propter mandatum assume pauperem, et propter inopiam ejus ne dimittas eum vacuum.  
13Perde pecuniam propter fratrem et amicum tuum, et non abscondas illam sub lapide in perditionem.  

Notes: For the Bible in Latin, I have used the Vulgate text at the Clementine Vulgate Project website.
The only English translations from the Vulgate that are readily available are John Wycliffe's 14th century English Bible, and the the Douay Rheims/Challoner versions. I have used the Wycliffe Bible text from the Wesley Centre website, where you can view this Bible in a number of formats. I have used the Douay Rheims Text at the Unbound Bible website. You can view the Douay Rheims Bible in a more readable format at DRBO.ORG website.
The katapi New Study Bible reference section: displays links to parallel passages. Passage headings are generally as printed in the Bible Society's "Good News Bible", 1976. To view the Greek Text on this page, you will need a Unicode font capable of displaying extended Greek characters. To find out about Unicode fonts, go to Alan Wood's Unicode Resources.
