Sirach 18:14-16
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
14 He has compassion on those who accept his discipline
and who are eager for his precepts.
The Right Spirit in Giving Alms
15 My child, do not mix reproach with your good deeds,
or spoil your gift by harsh words.
16 Does not the dew give relief from the scorching heat?
So a word is better than a gift.
