Sirach 35:6

6 Don't come into the Lord's presence empty-handed,

Sirach 35:6 In-Context

4 and whoever does an act of charity makes a sacrifice of praise.
5 Staying away from wickedness pleases the Lord, and keeping away from injustice means reconciliation.
6 Don't come into the Lord's presence empty-handed,
7 since fulfilling the commandments means making offerings.
8 The righteous person's offering enriches the altar, and its pleasing odor comes before the Most High.
