Ben Sira 40:6

6 A little or nothing is his rest, and afterward he is in his sleep, as in a day of keeping watch, troubled in the vision of his heart, as if he were escaped out of a battle.

Ben Sira 40:6 In-Context

4 from him that weareth purple and a crown, unto him that is clothed with a linen frock;
5 wrath and envy, trouble and unquietness, fear of death and anger and strife, and in the time of rest upon his bed, his night sleep changeth his knowledge.
6 A little or nothing is his rest, and afterward he is in his sleep, as in a day of keeping watch, troubled in the vision of his heart, as if he were escaped out of a battle.
7 When all is safe, he awaketh, and marveleth that the fear was nothing.
8 Such things happen unto all flesh, both man and beast, and that is sevenfold more upon sinners.
