Sirach 7:35

35 Be not slow to visit the sick: fir that shall make thee to be beloved.

Sirach 7:35 In-Context

33 A gift hath grace in the sight of every man living; and for the dead detain it not.
34 Fail not to be with them that weep, and mourn with them that mourn.
35 Be not slow to visit the sick: fir that shall make thee to be beloved.
36 Whatsoever thou takest in hand, remember the end, and thou shalt never do amiss.
