Sirach 33:21DRA

Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 21 of 33

"As long as thou livest, and hast breath in thee, let no man change thee."
Sirach 33:21

In context

19Hear me, ye great men, and all ye people, and hearken with your ears, ye rulers of the church.

20Give not to son or wife, brother or friend, power over thee while thou livest; and give not thy estate to another, lest then repent, and thou entreat for the same.

21As long as thou livest, and hast breath in thee, let no man change thee.

22For it is better that thy children should ask of thee, than that thou look toward the hands of thy children.

23In all thy works keep the pre-eminence.
