Sirach 16:22

22 Who will announce just actions? Or who will endure, since God's covenant is far off?"

Sirach 16:22 In-Context

20 The mind cannot even think about these things. Who can ponder his ways?

21 Most of his deeds are hidden like a hurricane that no one can see.

22 Who will announce just actions? Or who will endure, since God's covenant is far off?"

23 Those who lack sense think this way; a foolish and misguided person thinks foolish things.

24 Listen to me, my child: gain knowledge and apply your mind to my words.
