Ben Sira 11:21 In-Context

19 when he says, "I have found rest, and now I shall feast on my goods!" he does not know how long it will be until he leaves them to others and dies.
20 Stand by your agreement and attend to it, and grow old in your work.
21 Do not wonder at the works of a sinner, but trust in the Lord and keep at your job; for it is easy in the sight of the Lord to make the poor rich suddenly, in an instant.
22 The blessing of the Lord is the reward of the pious, and quickly God causes his blessing to flourish.
23 Do not say, "What do I need, and what further benefit can be mine?"
