Sirach 38:20-22
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

20 Do not give your heart to grief;
    drive it away and remember your own end.(A)
21 Do not forget, there is no coming back;
    you do the dead[a] no good, and you injure yourself.(B)
22 Remember his[b] fate, for yours is like it;
    yesterday it was his,[c] and today it is yours.(C)
