Sirach 28:1 In-Context

1 Those who are vengeful will suffer the Lord's vengeance, because the Lord keeps strict count of their sins.

2 Forgive your neighbor a wrong, and then, when you pray, your sins will be forgiven.

3 Can people hold on to their anger against others, and then look for healing from the Lord?

4 Can they refuse to have mercy on people like themselves, and then pray about their own sins?

5 If they, who are just flesh, hold on to anger, who will secure pardon for their own sins?
