Ben Sira 38:23

23 When the dead is at rest, let his remembrance rest; and be comforted for him when his spirit is departed from him.

Ben Sira 38:23 In-Context

21 Forget it not, for there is no turning back; thou shalt not do him good, but hurt thyself.
22 "Remember my judgment, for thine also shall be so; yesterday for me, and today for thee."
23 When the dead is at rest, let his remembrance rest; and be comforted for him when his spirit is departed from him.
24 The wisdom of a learned man cometh by opportunity of leisure, and he that hath little business shall become wise.
25 How can he get wisdom that holdeth the plough, and that glorieth in the goad that driveth oxen, and is occupied in their labors, and whose talk is of bullocks?
