Ben Sira 23:20

20 He knew everything before he created the world, as well as after.

Ben Sira 23:20 In-Context

18 The man who is unfaithful to his wife thinks to himself, "No one will ever know. It's dark in here, and no one sees me. I have nothing to worry about. As for the Most High, he won't even notice."

19 This man is only afraid of other people. He doesn't realize that the eyes of the Lord are 10,000 times brighter than the sun, that he sees everything we do, even when we try to hide it

20 He knew everything before he created the world, as well as after.

21 That sinful man will be caught when he least expects it, and punished publicly

22 The same is true of a woman who is unfaithful to her husband and presents him with a child by another man.
