Ecclesiasticus 18:28

Ecclesiasticus 18:28 Context

²⁵When thou hast enough, remember the time of hunger: and when thou art rich, think upon poverty and need. ²⁶From the morning until the evening the time is changed, and all things are soon done before the Lord. ²⁷A wise man will fear in every thing, and in the day of sinning he will beware of offence: but a fool will not observe time. ²⁸Every man of understanding knoweth wisdom, and will give praise unto him that found her. ²⁹They that were of understanding in sayings became also wise themselves, and poured forth exquisite parables. ³⁰Go not after thy lusts, but refrain thyself from thine appetites. ³¹If thou givest thy soul the desires that please her, she will make thee a laughingstock to thine enemies that malign thee.
