Sirach 9:16-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁶ Envy not the glory and riches of a sinner: for thou knowest not what his ruin shall be.

¹⁷ Be not pleased with the wrong done by the unjust, knowing that even to hell the wicked shall not please.

¹⁸ Keep thee far from the man that hath power to kill, so thou shalt not suspect the fear of death.
