Sirach 3:20LXX

Orthodox Bible · LXX · Verse 20 of 34

"The greater thou art, the more humble thyself in all things, and thou shalt find grace before God:"
Sirach 3:20

In context

18Of what an evil fame is he that forsaketh his father: and he is cursed of God that angereth his mother.

19My son, do thy works in meekness, and thou shalt be beloved above the glory of men.

20The greater thou art, the more humble thyself in all things, and thou shalt find grace before God:

21For great is the power of God alone, and he is honoured by the humble.

22Seek not the things that are too high for thee, and search not into things above thy ability: but the things that God hath commanded thee, think on them always, and in many of his works be not curious.
