Ben Sira 38:9-11
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
9 My son, when you are ill, do not delay,
but pray to God, for it is he who heals.(A)
10 Flee wickedness and purify your hands;
cleanse your heart of every sin.
11 Offer your sweet-smelling oblation and memorial,
a generous offering according to your means.(B)
