Sirach 3:15-17

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

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

¹⁷ My child, perform your tasks with humility;^[a]
    then you will be loved by those whom God accepts.
