Ben Sira 17:26

26 Turn again to the Most High, and turn away from iniquity; for He will lead thee out of darkness into the light of health, and hate thou abomination vehemently.

Ben Sira 17:26 In-Context

24 But unto them that repent, He granted them return, and comforted those that failed in patience.
25 Return unto the Lord, and forsake thy sins; make thy prayer before His face, and offend less.
26 Turn again to the Most High, and turn away from iniquity; for He will lead thee out of darkness into the light of health, and hate thou abomination vehemently.
27 Who shall praise the Most High in the grave, instead of them that live and give thanks?
28 Thanksgiving perisheth from the dead, as from one that is no more; the living and sound in heart shall praise the Lord.
