Ben Sira 34:12

12 I have been in danger of death many times, but I have always been able to escape by relying on past experience.

Ben Sira 34:12 In-Context

10 You can't know much if you haven't experienced much, but travel can make you more clever.

11 In my own travels I have seen many things and learned more than I can put into words.

12 I have been in danger of death many times, but I have always been able to escape by relying on past experience.

13 Those who fear the Lord will live, because they have put their trust in the one who can save them.

14 Fear the Lord, and you will have nothing else to fear. If your trust is in him, you will never act like a coward.
