Sirach 35:10
Douay-Rheims
Give glory to God with a good heart: and diminish not the firstfruits of thy hands.
Glossa Ordinaria
With a good mind. Whatever is not given with a good mind merits no grace with God. For man sees in the face, but God in the heart. And do not diminish, etc. Mystically. The firstfruits of the crops, etc., up to from whom both the beginning and the perfection of a good work is given.
