As it is written: “He has dispersed abroad, He has given to the poor; His righteousness endures forever.”  Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness.  While you are enriched in everything for all liberality, which causes thanksgiving through us to God.   2 Corinthians 9:6-11
