Sir 3:16
King James Version
“He that forsaketh his father is as a blasphemer; and he that angereth his mother is cursed: of God.”
Context
13And if his understanding fail, have patience with him; and despise him not when thou art in thy full strength.
14For the relieving of thy father shall not be forgotten: and instead of sins it shall be added to build thee up.
15In the day of thine affliction it shall be remembered; thy sins also shall melt away, as the ice in the fair warm weather.
16He that forsaketh his father is as a blasphemer; and he that angereth his mother is cursed: of God.
17My son, go on with thy business in meekness; so shalt thou be beloved of him that is approved.
18The greater thou art, the more humble thyself, and thou shalt find favour before the Lord.
19Many are in high place, and of renown: but mysteries are revealed unto the meek.
