Sirach 18:13-15

Wycliffe Bible

¹³ The merciful doing of man is about his neighbour; but the mercy of the Lord is over each flesh. He that hath mercy, and teacheth, and chastiseth as a shepherd his flock, [The mercy doing of man about his neighbour; the mercy forsooth of the Lord upon all flesh. He that hath mercy, and learneth, and teacheth, as a shepherd his flock,]

¹⁴ do he mercy, taking the teaching of merciful doing; and he that hast(en)eth in the dooms thereof. [have he mercy, taking out doctrine of mercy doing; and that hie in the dooms of him.]

¹⁵ Son, in goods give thou not (com)plaint, and in (or with) each gift give thou not heaviness of an evil word. [Son, in good things give thou not (com)plaint, and in all gift give thou not sorrowy sloth, or heaviness, of an evil word.]
