Sirach 40:4-6

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁴ From him that weareth purple, and beareth the crown, even to him that is covered with rough linen: wrath, envy, trouble, unquietness, and the fear of death, continual anger, and strife,

⁵ And in the time of rest upon his bed, the sleep of the night changeth his knowledge.

⁶ A little and as nothing is his rest, and afterward in sleep, as in the day of keeping watch.
