Ben Sira 18:21

21 Humble thyself before thou be sick, and in the time of sins show repentance.

Ben Sira 18:21 In-Context

19 Learn before thou speak, and use physic before thou be sick.
20 Before judgment examine thyself, and in the day of visitation thou shalt find mercy.
21 Humble thyself before thou be sick, and in the time of sins show repentance.
22 Let nothing hinder thee to pay thy vow in due time, and defer not until death to be justified.
23 Before thou prayest prepare thyself, and be not as one that tempteth the Lord.
