Midrash su Salmi 145:15

Our Rabbis were taught (Deut. 15, 8) Sufficient for his needs i.e., you are commanded to support him, but you are not commanded to enrich him. Which requireth for him; i.e., even a horse to ride on and a slave to run before him [in his honor.] It was related of Hillel the senior, (the Prince) who had bought a horse for a poor man of noble descent to ride upon and had hired a servant to run before him; that one day he could not find a servant who should run before him and he himself ran before the poor man for three miles. Our Rabbis were taught: It once happened with the inhabitants of the Upper Gallilians that they bought a pound of meat every day for a poor of noble descent of Sepphoris. What is remarkable about a pound of meat? Said R. Huna: "It was a pound of poultry" [which was very dear.] And if you wish I will say that it was indeed ordinary meat. But R. Ashi explained its remarkableness, because it occurred in a small village and every day they spoiled a beast on account of him. A certain man came before R. Nechemia [for help.] The latter asked him: "On what dost thou usually dine?" "On fat meat and old wine," came the reply. "Will you bear with me when I offer you only lentils?" He tried to live with him on lentils and died. Whereupon R. Nechemia said: "Woe unto him that was killed by Nechemia!" On the contrary: "Woe unto Nechemia that killed this man," he should have said. Because he should not have reared himself so delicately [and thus prevented his death.] A poor man once came to Raba. The latter asked him: "On what dost thou usually dine?" "On stuffed fowl and old wine," was the reply. "What!" said Raba, "art thou not concerned about being so burdensome to the community?" Whereupon he replied: "I eat nothing belonging to them; only what the Lord provideth; as we are taught in a Baraitha (Ps. 145, 15) The eyes of all wait for Tee, and Thou givest them their food in due season. It is not said in their due season, but in his due season. Infer from this that the Holy One, praised be He! provides for each and every one in his season of need." While they were thus talking, Raba's sister, who had not seen him for thirteen years, came to visit him and brought with her a present of a stuffed fowl and some old wine. "What is this before me?" said Raba [marveling at the coincidence], and [turning to the man] he then said: "I beg thy pardon, friend; rise, I pray thee, and eat."
