Sirach 4:4-6

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁴ Do not reject a suppliant in distress,
    or turn your face away from the poor.
⁵ Do not avert your eye from the needy,
    and give no one reason to curse you;
⁶ for if in bitterness of soul some should curse you,
    their Creator will hear their prayer.
