Sirach 23:13DRA
Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 13 of 38
"And if he make it void, his sin shall be upon him: and if he dissemble it, he offendeth double:"
In context
11For as a slave daily put to the question, is never without a blue mark: so every one that sweareth, and nameth, shall not be wholly pure from sin.
12A man that sweareth much, shall be filled with iniquity, and a scourge shall not depart from his house.
13And if he make it void, his sin shall be upon him: and if he dissemble it, he offendeth double:
14And if he swear in vain, he shall not be justified: for his house shall be filled with his punishment.
15There is also another speech opposite to death, let it not be found in the inheritance of Jacob.
