Sirach 33:21-25

{33:21} While you are still living and breathing, let no one among all flesh change you.
{33:22} For it is better if your children petition you, than if you look toward the hands of your children.
{33:23} In all your works, be pre-eminent.
{33:24} You should not allow a blemish upon your glory. On the day of the consummation of the days of your life, at the time of your passing, distribute your inheritance.
{33:25} Fodder and a rod and a burden are for a donkey; bread and discipline and work are for a servant.
