Ben Sira 47:25 In-Context

23 Solomon rested with his ancestors, and left behind him one of his sons, broad in folly and lacking in sense, Rehoboam, whose policy drove the people to revolt. Then Jeroboam son of Nebat led Israel into sin and started Ephraim on its sinful ways.

24 Their sins increased more and more, until they were exiled from their land.

25 For they sought out every kind of wickedness, until vengeance came upon them.
