Sirach 17:30DRA
Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 30 of 31
"What is brighter than the sun; yet it shall be eclipsed. Or what is more wicked than that which flesh and blood hath invented? and this shall be reproved."
In context
28How great is the mercy of the Lord, and his forgiveness to them that turn to him!
29For all things cannot be in men, because the son of man is not immortal, and they are delighted with the vanity of evil.
30What is brighter than the sun; yet it shall be eclipsed. Or what is more wicked than that which flesh and blood hath invented? and this shall be reproved.
31He beholdeth the power of the height of heaven: and all men are earth and ashes.
