כַּ֭פָּהּ פָּרְשָׂ֣ה לֶעָנִ֑י וְ֝יָדֶ֗יהָ שִׁלְּחָ֥ה לָֽאֶבְיֽוֹן׃
Ia membuka telapak tangannya bagi orang yang tertindas, dan mengulurkan tangannya kepada orang yang miskin.
Duties of the Heart
GUARDING THE HANDS
Afterwards, endeavor to restrain your hands from touching worldly possessions that are not yours. Separate from the various types of theft, fraud, robbery, and from doing any evil to any human being. Restrain the movements of your hands and think of its consequences. Guard your ethics and modesty by being elevated from doing evil with them, as written: "keeps his hand from doing any evil" (Yeshaya 56:2). It also says: "that shakes his hands from holding bribes" (Yeshaya 33:15). Rather, use your hands for fulfilling the commandments of G-d, open them to give to the poor and needy, as written: "you shall surely open your hand unto your brother, to your poor, and to your needy, in your land" (Devarim 15:11), and it says: "she stretches out her hand to the poor; she reaches forth her hands to the needy" (Mishlei 31:20).
