Ben Sira 15:9 In-Context

7 But foolish men shall not attain unto her, and sinners shall not see her.
8 For she is far from pride, and men that are liars cannot remember her.
9 Praise is not seemly in the mouth of a sinner, for it was not sent him from the Lord.
10 For praise shall be uttered in wisdom, and the Lord will prosper it.
11 Say not thou, "It is through the Lord that I fell away"; for thou oughtest not to do the things that He hateth.
