Begging

Sirach 40:28-30

Son, don't live the life of a beggar;
it is better to die than to beg.
If you have to depend on someone else for your food,
you are not really living your own life.
You pollute yourself by accepting food from other.
Begging is torture to the soul of any sensitive person.
A shameless person can make begging sound sweet,
but something inside him burns.
