Ecclesiasticus 11:19 Context
17The gift of the Lord remaineth with the godly, and his fauour bringeth prosperitie for euer. 18There is that waxeth rich by his warinesse, and pinching, and this is the portion of his reward: 19Whereas he sayth, I haue found rest, and now will eate continually of my goods, and yet hee knoweth not what time shall come vpon him, and that hee must leaue those things to others, and die. 20Be stedfast in thy couenant, and be conuersant therein, and waxe olde in thy worke. 21Marueile not at the workes of sinners, but trust in the Lord, and abide in thy labour: for it is an easie thing in the sight of the Lord, on the sudden to make a poore man rich.
