But whoso hath this world’s good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
But whoever has this world’s goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him?
But whoever has the world’s goods, and beholds his brother in need and closes his heart against him, how does the love of God abide in him?
If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has not pity on him, how can the love of God be in him?
But if anyone has this world’s goods (resources for sustaining life) and sees his brother and fellow believer in need, yet closes his heart of compassion against him, how can the love of God live and remain in him?
But whoever has as a constant possession the necessities of life, and deliberately keeps on contemplating his brother constantly having need, and snaps shut his heart from him, how is it possible that the love of God is abiding in him?
But as for the well-to-do man who sees his brother in want but shuts his heart against him, how could anyone believe that the love of God lives in him?
But if anyone has the world’s means of supporting life and sees his brother in need and closes his heart against him, how can love to God remain in him?
