Sirach 10:32LXX
Orthodox Bible · LXX · Verse 32 of 34
"Who will justify him that sinneth against his own soul? and who will honour him that dishonoureth his own soul?"
In context
30Better is he that laboureth, and aboundeth in all things, than he that boasteth himself and wanteth bread.
31My son, keep thy soul in meekness, and give it honour according to its desert.
32Who will justify him that sinneth against his own soul? and who will honour him that dishonoureth his own soul?
33The poor man is glorified by his discipline and fear: and there is a man that is honoured for his wealth.
34But he that is glorified in poverty, how much more in wealth? and he that is glorified in wealth, let him fear poverty.
