Ben Sira 7:32

32 Stretch out your hand to the poor, so that your blessing may be complete.

Ben Sira 7:32 In-Context

30 With all your might love your Maker, and do not neglect his ministers.
31 Fear the Lord and honor the priest, and give him his portion, as you have been commanded: 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 out your hand to the poor, so that your blessing may be complete.
33 Give graciously to all the living; do not withhold kindness even from the dead.
34 Do not avoid those who weep, but mourn with those who mourn.
