Wisdom 4:9LXX

Orthodox Bible · LXX · Verse 9 of 20

"And a spotless life is old age."
Wisdom 4:9

In context

7But the just man, if he be prevented with death, shall be in rest.

8For venerable old age is not that of long time, nor counted by the number of years: but the understanding of a man is grey hairs.

9And a spotless life is old age.

10He pleased God and was beloved, and living among sinners he was translated.

11He was taken away lest wickedness should alter his understanding, or deceit beguile his soul.
