Sirach 38:9-11

Common English Bible

⁹ My child, when you are sick,
don’t look around elsewhere,
    but pray to the Lord,
    and he will heal you.
¹⁰ Stay far from error,
direct your hands rightly,
    and cleanse your heart from all sin.
¹¹ Offer a sweet-smelling sacrifice
and a memorial of fine flour,
    and pour an offering of oil,
    using what you can afford.^[a]
