Sirach 7:31-33

Good News Translation

³¹ Honor the Lord and respect the priests. Supply them with what you have been commanded to give: the first produce, the offering for sin, the shoulder of the sacrificial animal—all the required sacrifices and offerings.

³² Give your help to the poor, and the Lord will give you his perfect blessing. ³³ Be generous to every living soul, and be gracious to the memory of the dead.
