- Moses:
- "And thou shalt giveª° the money,ª wherewith the odd numberª° of them is to be redeemed,²¹ unto Aaronª and to his sons.ª" {Num 3:48} + "And Mosesª was very² wroth,ª°¹ and saidª° unto¹ the LORD,ª Respectª°¹ not¹ thou their offering:ª I have not¹ takenª° oneª assª from¹ them, neither¹ have I hurtª°¹ oneª of¹ them." {Num 16:15} + "Behold,¹ here I [am]: witnessª° against me before¹ the LORD,ª and before¹ his anointed:ª whose¹¹ oxª have I taken?ª° or whose¹ assª have I taken?ª° or whom¹ have I defrauded?ª°¹ whom¹ have I oppressed?ª° or of whose handª¹¹ have I received¹ [any] bribeª to blindª° mine eyesª therewith? and I will restoreª° it you. ... And they said,ª° Thou hast not¹ defraudedª° us, nor¹ oppressedª° us, neither¹ hast thou takenª° oughtª of any man's² hand.ª¹¹" {1Sm 12:3-4} + "I have covetedª° no man'sª silver,ª orª gold,ª orª apparel.ª" {Act 20:33} + "Ifª othersª be partakersª° of [this] powerª over you,ª [are] notª weª rather?ª Neverthelessª we have²° notª usedª° thisª power;ª butª sufferª° all things,ª lestª we should²°² hinderª¹¹ the¹ gospelª of Christ.ª" {1Co 9:12} + "Feedª° the¹ flockª of Godª which is amongª you,ª taking the oversightª° [thereof], notª by constraint,ª butª willingly;ª notª for filthy lucre,ª butª of a ready mind;ª" {1Pe 5:2}
