Sirach 3:15-17

Revised Standard Version

¹⁵ in the day of your affliction it will be remembered in your favor;
    as frost in fair weather, your sins will melt away.
¹⁶ Whoever forsakes his father is like a blasphemer,
    and whoever angers his mother is cursed by the Lord.

¹⁷ My son, perform your tasks in meekness;
    then you will be loved by those whom God accepts.
