Sirach 7:22-24

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²² Hurt not the servant that worketh faithfully, nor the hired man that giveth thee his life.

²³ Let a wise servant be dear to thee as thy own soul, defraud him not of liberty, nor leave him needy.

²⁴ Hast thou cattle? have an eye to them: and if they be for thy profit, keep them with thee.
