Ben Sira 16:22

22 Who will announce his acts of justice? Or who will await them? For the covenant is far off."

Ben Sira 16:22 In-Context

20 And no mind will reflect on this. Who will ponder his ways?
21 Like a tempest which no man can see, so most of his works are concealed.
22 Who will announce his acts of justice? Or who will await them? For the covenant is far off."
23 This is what one devoid of understanding thinks; a senseless and misguided man thinks foolishly.
24 Listen to me, my son, and acquire knowledge, and pay close attention to my words.
