Ben Sira 14:20

20 Every work that is corruptible shall fail in the end: and the worker thereof shall go with it.

Ben Sira 14:20 In-Context

18 All flesh shall fade as grass, and as the leaf that springeth out on a green tree.
19 Some grow, and some fall off: so is the generation of flesh and blood, one cometh to an end, and another is born.
20 Every work that is corruptible shall fail in the end: and the worker thereof shall go with it.
21 And every excellent work shall be justified: and the worker thereof shall be honoured therein.
22 Blessed is the man that shall continue in wisdom, and that shall meditate in his justice, and in his mind shall think of the all seeing eye of God.
