Ben Sira 14:12

12 Remember that death is coming for you some day, and you haven't been told when that will be.

Ben Sira 14:12 In-Context

10 Some people are too stingy to put bread on their own table.

11 My child, treat yourself as well as you can, and bring worthy offerings to the Lord.

12 Remember that death is coming for you some day, and you haven't been told when that will be.

13 Before that day comes, be kind to your friends; be as generous as you can.

14 Don't deny yourself a single day's happiness. If there is something you want to do and it is lawful, go ahead!
