Sirach 44:7-9

Revised Standard Version

⁷ all these were honored in their generations,
    and were the glory of their times.
⁸ There are some of them who have left a name,
    so that men declare their praise.
⁹ And there are some who have no memorial,
    who have perished as though they had not lived;
they have become as though they had not been born,
    and so have their children after them.
