Sirach 34:26DRA
Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 26 of 31
"He that taketh away the bread gotten by sweat, is like him that killeth his neighbour."
In context
24He that offereth sacrifice of the goods of the poor, is as one that sacrificeth the son in the presence of his father.
25The bread of the needy, is the life of the poor: he that defraudeth them thereof, is a man of blood.
26He that taketh away the bread gotten by sweat, is like him that killeth his neighbour.
27He that sheddeth blood, and he that defraudeth the labourer of his hire, are brothers.
28When one buildeth up, and another pulleth down: what profit have they but the labour?
