Sirach 23:14-16

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁴ And if he swear in vain, he shall not be justified: for his house shall be filled with his punishment.

¹⁵ There is also another speech opposite to death, let it not be found in the inheritance of Jacob.

¹⁶ For from the merciful all these things shall be taken away, and they shall not wallow in sins.
