Sirach 35:12
Print
Give to the Most High as he has given, and give with generosity from what you have,
Give to the most High according to what he hath given to thee, and with a good eye do according to the ability of thy hands:
But don't try to bribe him or rely on offerings that you have obtained dishonestly. He will not accept them. The Lord is fair and does not show partiality.
Give to the Most High as he has given to you, generously, according to your means.
Give to the Most High as he has given to you, as generously as your means allow.
Give to the Most High as he has given to you, and as generously as you can afford.
Give to the Most High as he has given to you, and as generously as you can afford.
Give to the Most High as he has given to you, and as generously as you can afford.
Give to the Most High as he has given to you and as generously as you can afford.
Do not offer him a bribe, for he will not accept it; and do not trust to an unrighteous sacrifice; for the Lord is the judge, and with him is no partiality.
Do not offer him a bribe, for he will not accept it; and do not trust to an unrighteous sacrifice; for the Lord is the judge, and with him is no partiality.
Do not thou offer shrewd (or depraved) gifts; for he shall not receive those. And do not thou behold an unjust sacrifice; for the Lord is judge, and glory, or taking, (or favouring) of person(s) is not at him. [Do thou not offer shrewd gifts; forsooth he shall not take them. And do thou not behold the unrightwise sacrifice; for the Lord is doomsman, and there is not with him glory of person(s).]
