Ecclesiasticus 18:15 Context
13The mercy of man is toward his neighbour, but the mercy of the Lord is vpon all flesh: he reprooueth and nurtureth, and teacheth, & bringeth againe as a shepheard his flocke. 14He hath mercy on them that receiue discipline, and that diligently seeke after his iudgements. 15My sonne, blemish not thy good deeds, neither vse vncomfortable words when thou giuest any thing. 16Shall not the deaw asswage the heate? so is a word better then a gift. 17Loe is not a word better then a gift? but both are with a gracious man.
