Sirach 7:8-10

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁸ Do not commit a sin twice;
    not even for one will you go unpunished.
⁹ Do not say, ‘He will consider the great number of my gifts,
    and when I make an offering to the Most High God, he will accept it.’
¹⁰ Do not grow weary when you pray;
    do not neglect to give alms.
