For to do this is to kill a man, to deny him the helps owed to his life. You too are a hireling on this earth: give the hireling his wage, that you also may be able to say to the Lord when you pray: 'Give a reward to those who wait upon You.' Tobit says to you: 'Excess is the mother of hunger,' wherein he teaches continence. He says also: 'The wage of every man who shall have worked for you, render it the same day, and let not a man's wage remain with you; and your reward shall not be diminished.' He says to you: 'Do not drink wine unto drunkenness.' He says to you: 'Share your bread with the hungry' -- you see what return he desires you to lend at interest -- 'and with your garments cover the naked. Out of all that abounds to you, give alms. At all times bless the Lord.'
