Ben Sira 14:15

15 Shalt thou not leave to others to divide by lot thy sorrows and labours?

Ben Sira 14:15 In-Context

13 Do good to thy friend before thou die, and according to thy ability, stretching out thy hand give to the poor.
14 Defraud not thyself of the good day, and let not the part of a good gift over- pass thee.
15 Shalt thou not leave to others to divide by lot thy sorrows and labours?
16 Give and take, and justify thy soul.
17 Before thy death work justice: for in hell there is no finding food.
