Ben Sira 30:16

16 Nothing can make you richer or give you greater happiness than those two things.

Ben Sira 30:16 In-Context

14 It is better to be poor, but strong and healthy, than to be rich, but in poor health.

15 A sound, healthy body and a cheerful attitude are more valuable than gold and jewels.

16 Nothing can make you richer or give you greater happiness than those two things.

17 It would be better to be dead, asleep forever, than to live in the misery of chronic illness.

18 The finest food means nothing if you are too sick to eat it; it might as well be offered to an idol.
