Malachi 3:10-12
Bring ye all the tithes into...
10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.
11 And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes, and he shall not destroy the fruits of your ground; neither shall your vine cast her fruit before the time in the field, saith the LORD of hosts.
12 And all nations shall call you blessed: for ye shall be a delightsome land, saith the LORD of hosts.
To know and to do
Are a strange set of two
And the one will play upon the other
For to do and not know
Is a lucky sort of show
And we smirk on it one with another
Now to know and to do
Grants good purpose its due
And skill assures all those who love her
Yet to know and not do
Is the wresting of the two
And it comes with its own sort of tether
So to do and to know
With the good all in tow
Is a charity shared with another
But when we are remiss
Our lack will consist
In knowing but doing no other
