21 It is a sin to despise one's neighbor, but blessed is the one who is kind to the needy.
21 He that despiseth his neighbour sinneth: but he that hath mercy on the poor, happy is he.
21 Whoever despises his neighbor is a sinner, but blessed is he who is generous to the poor.
21 It's criminal to ignore a neighbor in need, but compassion for the poor - what a blessing!
21 He who despises his neighbor sins; But he who has mercy on the poor, happy is he.
21 It is a sin to belittle one's neighbor; blessed are those who help the poor.
