Sirach 4:2-4
Wycliffe Bible
2 Despise thou not an hungry man, and wrath thou not a poor man in his neediness. [The hungering soul not despise thou, and stir thou not out to wrath the poor in his mis-ease.]
3 Torment thou not the heart of a needy man, and tarry thou not the gift to a man that is set in anguish. [The heart of the helpless not torment thou, and draw thou not along (a) gift to the man put in straits.]
4 Cast thou not away the praying of a man set in tribulation, and turn not away thy face from a needy man. [The praying of the troubled not cast thou away, and turn thou not away thy face from the needy.]
