Sirach 18:25-27

Common English Bible

²⁵ Remember a time of hunger
in a time of plenty,
    a time of poverty and want
    in times of wealth.
²⁶ From morning until evening
opportune times change,
    and all things are fleeting
    in the Lord’s presence.

²⁷ Wise people exercise caution
in everything,
    and in times of sin
    they will take heed against error.
