Ecclesiasticus 34:21 Context
19The most high is not pleased with the offerings of the wicked, neither is he pacified for sinne by the multitude of sacrifices. 20Who so bringeth an offering of the goods of the poore, doeth as one that killeth the sonne before his fathers eyes. 21The bread of the needie, is their life: he that defraudeth him thereof, is a man of blood. 22Hee that taketh away his neighbours liuing, slayeth him: and hee that defraudeth the labourer of his hire, is a bloodshedder. 23When one buildeth, and another pulleth downe, what profite haue they then but labour?
