I don't know the verse you're referring to. Of course I'm not a Christian either, technically speaking.

And Jesus said "if you think Malachai has too much, go on and take a little. He won't miss it"

I'm also not Christian (it's just the most likely religion for people on here), but this is one verse I was thinking of:

Leviticus 19:9-10

‘Now when you reap the harvest of your land, you shall not reap to the very corners of your field, nor shall you gather the gleanings of your harvest. Nor shall you glean your vineyard, nor shall you gather the fallen fruit of your vineyard; you shall leave them for the needy and for the stranger. I am the Lord your God.

It's not exactly saying stealing from the rich is good, but it is talking about the common act of the poor taking from fields to feed themselves.

There's more in there, but I can't really be bothered to look into it more for the two of us who both don't follow it. Lol.
