Isaiah 58:7
Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?
KJV
frange esurienti panem tuum, et egenos vagosque induc in domum tuam ; cum videris nudum, operi eum, et carnem tuam ne despexeris.
Vulgate

LXX
Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?
