Ben Sira 18:15

Listen to Ben Sira 18:15
15 My son, in thy good deeds, make no complaint, and when thou givest any thing, add not grief by an evil word.

Ben Sira 18:15 In-Context

13 He hath mercy, and teacheth, and correcteth, as a shepherd doth his hock.
14 He hath mercy on him that receiveth the discipline of mercy, and that maketh haste in his judgments.
15 My son, in thy good deeds, make no complaint, and when thou givest any thing, add not grief by an evil word.
16 Shall not the dew assuage the heat? so also the good word is better than the gift.
17 Lo, is not a word better than a gift? but both are with a justified man.
