Tobit 12:8-10

Wycliffe Bible

⁸ Prayer is good with fasting, and with alms-[deeds], more than to hide treasures of gold;

⁹ for why alms-[deeds] delivereth from death, and those alms(-deeds) it is that purgeth sins, and maketh man to find everlasting life.

¹⁰ Forsooth they that do sin and wickedness, be enemies of their (own) soul.
