Sirach 23:14DRA
Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 14 of 38
"And if he swear in vain, he shall not be justified: for his house shall be filled with his punishment."
In context
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.
16For from the merciful all these things shall be taken away, and they shall not wallow in sins.
