“ Your hands have shaped me and made me, but now you destroy me completely.Remember that you have made me as with the clay; will you return me to dust?Did you not pour me out like milk, and curdle me like cheese?You clothed me with skin and flesh and knit me together with bones and sinews.You gave me life and favor, and your intervention watched over my spirit.
And now, though we share the same flesh and blood as our fellow countrymen, and our children are just like their children, still we have found it necessary to subject our sons and daughters to slavery. Some of our daughters have been subjected to slavery, while we are powerless to help, since our fields and vineyards now belong to other people.”
I want you to share your food with the hungry and to provide shelter for homeless, oppressed people. When you see someone naked, clothe him! Don’t turn your back on your own flesh and blood!
I will give you thanks because your deeds are awesome and amazing. You knew me thoroughly;my bones were not hidden from you, when I was made in secret and sewed together in the depths of the earth.Your eyes saw me when I was inside the womb. All the days ordained for me were recorded in your scroll before one of them came into existence.
