"For from the cheek they go up even to heaven, and the Lord that heareth will not be delighted with them."
Sirach 35:19

En contexte

17He will not despise the prayers of the fatherless; nor the widow, when she poureth out her complaint.

18Do not the widow’s tears run down the cheek, and her cry against him that causeth them to fall?

19For from the cheek they go up even to heaven, and the Lord that heareth will not be delighted with them.

20He that adoreth God with joy, shall be accepted, and his prayer shall approach even to the clouds.

21The prayer of him that humbleth himself, shall pierce the clouds: and till it come nigh he will not be comforted: and he will not depart till the most High behold.
