Ben Sira 7:30

30 With all your might love your Maker, and do not forsake his ministers.

Ben Sira 7:30 In-Context

28 Remember that through your parents you were born; and what can you give back to them that equals their gift to you?
29 With all your soul fear the Lord, and honor his priests.
30 With all your might love your Maker, and do not forsake his ministers.
31 Fear the Lord and honor the priest, and give him his portion, as is commanded you: the first fruits, the guilt offering, the gift of the shoulders, the sacrifice of sanctification, and the first fruits of the holy things.
32 Stretch forth your hand to the poor, so that your blessing may be complete.
