Sirach 34:30DRA
Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 30 of 31
"He that washeth himself after touching the dead, if he toucheth him again, what doth his washing avail?"
In context
28When one buildeth up, and another pulleth down: what profit have they but the labour?
29When one prayeth, and another curseth: whose voice will God hear?
30He that washeth himself after touching the dead, if he toucheth him again, what doth his washing avail?
31So a man that fasteth for his sins, and doth the same again, what doth his humbling himself profit him? who will hear his prayer?
