Sirach 12:1-4
-
1 When thou wilt do good know to whom thou doest it; so shalt thou be thanked for thy benefits.
-
2 Do good to the godly man, and thou shalt find a recompence; and if not from him, yet from the most High.
-
3 There can no good come to him that is always occupied in evil, nor to him that giveth no alms.
-
4 Give to the godly man, and help not a sinner.
