Ben Sira 11:24

24 Again, say not, "I have enough and possess many things, and what evil can come to me hereafter?"

Ben Sira 11:24 In-Context

22 The blessing of the Lord is the reward of the godly, and suddenly He maketh his blessing to flourish.
23 Say not, "What profit is there in my service, and what good things shall I have hereafter?"
24 Again, say not, "I have enough and possess many things, and what evil can come to me hereafter?"
25 In the day of prosperity there is a forgetfulness of affliction, and in the day of affliction there is no more remembrance of prosperity.
26 For it is an easy thing unto the Lord in the day of death to reward a man according to his ways.
