7 Each of you should give as he has decided previously in his lev (heart), not giving bedieved (begrudgingly) nor out of necessity; for Hashem loves a cheerful giver.* TARGUM HASHIVIM

8 And Hashem is able to cause to abound to you all Chen v’Chesed Hashem that in everything, always, having all sufficiency, you may abound to every mitzvah.

10 Now the one supplying ZERA (seed) to the sower and LECHEM for okhel (food)* will supply and will multiply your zera and will increase the p’ri of the Tzedek of you;* TARGUM HASHIVIM

11 You will be enriched in every ma’aseh chesed to all generosity, which produces through us hodayah (thanksgiving) to Hashem;*

12 For if the readiness is already present, it is acceptable according to whatever one may have — not according to what one does not have.*

38 Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, having been pressed down and having been shaken, overflowing, will be put into your kheyk (lap). For by what measure you measure it will be measured in return to you.*

9 Honor Hashem with thy substance,

and with the reshit (firstfruit) of all thine increase;

27 Withhold not tov from them to whom it is due,

when it is in the power of thine yad to do it.

25 The nefesh berakhah (generous person) shall be made to prosper,

and he that watereth shall be refreshed also himself.

16 The mattan adam (gift of a man) openeth the way for him,

and bringeth him before gedolim.

26 He craveth greedily kol hayom,

but the tzaddik giveth and spareth not.

9 Open thy peh (mouth), judge tzedek,

and plead the cause of the oni and the evyon.

10 Bring ye kol hama’aser (all the tithes) into the Beis HaOtzar (House of the Treasury),

that there may be teref (food) in Mine Beis,*

and prove Me now herewith,

saith Hashem Tzva’os,

if I will not open you the windows of Shomayim,

and pour you out a brocha,

that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

2 Therefore, whenever you contribute tzedakah, don’t blow the shofar before you, as the tzevuim (hypocrites) do in the shuls and in the streets, in order that they may receive kavod (glory) from Bnei Adam. Omein, truly I say to you, they have their sachar (reward).

3 But when you contribute tzedakah, do not let your left hand have da’as (knowledge) of what your right hand is doing, 4 so that your tzedakah may be nistar (hidden, in secret), and your Av HaRoeh b’seter (Father, the One seeing in secret)* sachar (reward) will give you.

8 Heal the cholim, raise the mesim, cleanse the metzoraim (lepers), cast out the shedim; freely you received, freely give.

21 Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to him, If you wish to be tamim (perfect), if you wish to have shelemut (perfection, completeness), then go and sell your possessions and give to the aniyim (poor) and you will have otzar (treasure) in Shomayim. Then come and follow me.*

30 To everyone asking you, give tzedakah; and from the one taking away your things, do not demand them back.*

4 Delight thyself also in Hashem,

and He shall give thee the desires of thine lev.

21 The rasha borroweth, and repayeth not;

but the tzaddik showeth chonen (generosity), and giveth.

14 But who am I, and what is my people, that we should have ko’ach to make this freewill offering? For all things come of Thee, and of Thine own have we given Thee.

10 Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the choice foods, and drink the sweet things, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is kadosh unto Adoneinu; neither be ye grieving; for the chedvah (joy) of Hashem is your strength.

3 And if I’m a marbitz tzedaka and give all I possess in gemilut chasadim and if I give my body al kiddush Hashem for sereifah (death by burning), but ahavah I do not have, I have gained nothing.*
