Sirach 18:7LXX
Orthodox Bible · LXX · Verse 7 of 33
"What is man, and what is his grace? and what is his good, or what is his evil?"
In context
5Nothing may be taken away, nor added, neither is it possible to find out the glorious works of God:
6When a man hath done, then shall he begin: and when he leaveth off, he shall be at a loss.
7What is man, and what is his grace? and what is his good, or what is his evil?
8The number of the days of men at the most are a hundred years: as a drop of water of the sea are they esteemed: and as a pebble of the sand, so are a few years compared to eternity.
9Therefore God is patient in them, and poureth forth his mercy upon them.
