10.81.3

/0 śrī-bhagavān uvāca
kim upāyanam ānītaṃ brahman me bhavatā gṛhāt /
aṇv apy upāhṛtaṃ bhaktaiḥ premṇā bhury eva me bhavet /
bhūry apy abhaktopahṛtaṃ na me toṣāya kalpate //

3. The Lord said:— "What present hast thou, O brahmin, brought from thy house? Even the little offered by the devoted with real love is indeed a great deal to Me; even the great deal offered by one destitute of devotion, does not gain My pleasure.

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
