Sirach 3:15-17
Common English Bible
15 When you are in trouble,
this will be recalled about you;
like frost warmed by sunshine,
so your sins will melt away.
16 Those who abandon their fathers
are like blasphemers,
and those who anger their mothers
have been cursed by the Lord.
Humility and charity
17 My child, conduct your affairs
with gentleness,
and you will be loved
more than a person of good repute.[a]
