Sirach 38:9-11

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁹ My son, in thy sickness neglect not thyself, but pray to the Lord, and he shall heal thee.

¹⁰ Turn away from sin and order thy hands aright, and cleanse thy heart from all offence.

¹¹ Give a sweet savour, and a memorial of fine flour, and make a fat offering, and then give place to the physician.
