Sirach 17:24-26

Wycliffe Bible

²⁴ Forsooth it gave to men repenting the way of rightfulness, and confirmed men failing to suffer, and ordained to them the part of truth. [To men doing penance forsooth he gave the way of rightwiseness, and confirmed men failing to suffer, and ordained to them the lot of truth.]

²⁵ (Re)Turn thou to the Lord, and forsake thy sins; pray thou before the face of the Lord, and make thou less hurtings. [Turn thou to the Lord, and leave thy sins; pray thou before the face of the Lord, and make less the occasions of guilts.]

²⁶ Turn thou again to the Lord, and turn thou away from thine unrightfulness [or from thine unrightwiseness], and hate thou greatly cursing, that is, cursed sin.
