Sirach 10:10-12

Revised Standard Version

¹⁰ A long illness baffles the physician;^[a]
    the king of today will die tomorrow.
¹¹ For when a man is dead,
    he will inherit creeping things, and wild beasts, and worms.
¹² The beginning of man’s pride is to depart from the Lord;
    his heart has forsaken his Maker.
