Ben Sira 35:14 In-Context

12 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.

13 He is not prejudiced against the poor; when someone prays who has been wronged, the Lord listens.

14 When orphans and widows pour out their prayers, he does not ignore them.

15 The tears running down a widow's cheek cry out in accusation against the one who has caused her distress.

16 Serve the Lord willingly, and the Lord will accept you; your prayers will reach the skies.
