Sirach 35:15
Don’t present an unrighteous sacrifice, because the Lord is a judge, and he shows no partiality.
And look not upon an unjust sacrifice, for the Lord is judge, and there is not with him respect of person.
The tears running down a widow's cheek cry out in accusation against the one who has caused her distress.
Do not trust in sacrifice of the fruits of extortion, For he is a God of justice, who shows no partiality.
and do not place your hope in a dishonest sacrifice. For the Lord is a judge, and he is completely impartial.
and do not rely on a dishonest sacrifice; for the Lord is the judge, and with him there is no partiality.
and do not rely on a dishonest sacrifice; for the Lord is the judge, and with him there is no partiality.
and do not rely on a dishonest sacrifice; for the Lord is the judge, and with him there is no partiality.
and do not rely on a dishonest sacrifice, for the Lord is the judge, and with him there is no partiality.
Do not the tears of the widow run down her cheek as she cries out against him who has caused them to fall?
Do not the tears of the widow run down her cheek as she cries out against him who has caused them to fall?
Whether the tears of a widow go not down to the cheek, and the crying of her on him that leadeth forth those tears? For why those ascend from the cheek unto heaven, and the Lord hearing shall not delight in those [or in them].
