Sirach 40:3-5
Revised Standard Version
Sirach 40:3-5
Revised Standard Version
3 from the man who sits on a splendid throne
to the one who is humbled in dust and ashes,
4 from the man who wears purple and a crown
to the one who is clothed in burlap;
5 there is anger and envy and trouble and unrest,
and fear of death, and fury and strife.
And when one rests upon his bed,
his sleep at night confuses his mind.
