Sirach 3:11-13
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
11 The honor of one’s father is one’s own glory,
and a mother dishonored is a disgrace to her children.(A)
12 My child, help your father in his old age,
and do not grieve him as long as he lives;(B)
13 even if his mind fails, be patient with him;
do not despise him because you have all your faculties.
