Sirach 12:3

¹When thou wilt do good know to whom thou doest it; so shalt thou be thanked for thy benefits.

²Do good to the godly man, and thou shalt find a recompence; and if not from him, yet from the most High.

— Sirach 12:3 —

⁴Give to the godly man, and help not a sinner.

⁵Do well unto him that is lowly, but give not to the ungodly: hold back thy bread, and give it not unto him, lest he overmaster thee thereby: for else thou shalt receive twice as much evil for all the good thou shalt have done unto him.
