Sirach 41:10-12
Good News Translation
10 What comes into being from nothing[a] will return to nothing;[b] so it will be with the godless, doomed to extinction.
11 A person's body amounts to nothing,[c] but a good reputation will last forever. 12 Protect your reputation; it will outlive you and last longer than a thousand treasures of gold.
