Sirach 3:13-15

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹³ even if his mind fails, be patient with him;
    because you have all your faculties do not despise him.
¹⁴ For kindness to a father will not be forgotten,
    and will be credited to you against your sins;
¹⁵ in the day of your distress it will be remembered in your favour;
    like frost in fair weather, your sins will melt away.
