Sirach 41:1-3

Wycliffe Bible

41 A! death, thy mind is full bitter to an unjust man, and having peace in his riches; to a restful man, and whose ways be (ad)dressed (or directed) in all things, that is, hath prosperity in all temporal things, and yet mighty to take meat. [O! death, how bitter is thy mind to an unrightwise man, and having peace in his substances; to a quiet man, and whose ways be right straight, or right strait, in all things, and yet mighty to take meat.]

² A! death, thy doom (or thy judgement) is good to a needy man, and which is made less in strengths, and faileth for age, and to whom is care of all things, and unbelieveful, that loseth (or that destroyeth) wisdom. [O! death, good is thy doom to a man needy, and that is less(en)ed in strength, failing through age, and to whom of all things is care, and to the unbelieveful, that loseth wisdom.]

³ Do not thou dread the doom of death, that is, set thou thee in such a state, (so) that the doom of death be good to (or for) thee; have thou mind what things were before thee, and what things shall come on (or after) thee; this doom is of the Lord to each man. [Do thou not dread the doom of death; have mind what before thee were, and what upon be to come to (or after) thee; this doom from the Lord to all flesh.]
