Ben Sira 34:21

21 The bread of the needy is their life; he that defraudeth him thereof is a man of blood.

Ben Sira 34:21 In-Context

19 The Most High is not pleased with the offerings of the wicked; neither is He pacified for sin by the multitude of sacrifices.

20 Whoso bringeth an offering of the goods of the poor doeth as one that killeth the son before his father's eyes.

21 The bread of the needy is their life; he that defraudeth him thereof is a man of blood.

22 He that taketh away his neighbor's living slayeth him, and he that defraudeth the laborer of his hire is a bloodshedder.

23 When one buildeth and another pulleth down, what profit have they then but labor?
