Sirach 17:29

29 How great is the Lord's mercy! How quickly is he reconciled with those who turn back to him!

Sirach 17:29 In-Context

27 Who will praise the Most High in the grave instead of the living and those who give thanks?

28 From the dead thanksgiving has perished, since they are no longer alive; those who are alive and healthy will praise the Lord.

29 How great is the Lord's mercy! How quickly is he reconciled with those who turn back to him!

30 Human beings can't do all things, because no person is immortal.

31 What shines brighter than the sun? Even that fails. Flesh and blood will hanker after evil.
