Sirach 29:21-23
Common English Bible
Home and children
21 Life’s foundations are water,
bread, clothing,
and a house for ensuring privacy.
22 Better is the life of the poor
under a shelter of rafters
than magnificent food
in foreign countries.
23 Be content with a little or a lot,
and you will never be put down
for being a sojourner.
