Ben Sira 17:24

24 Yet to those who repent he grants a return, and he encourages those whose endurance is failing.

Ben Sira 17:24 In-Context

22 A man's almsgiving is like a signet with the Lord and he will keep a person's kindness like the apple of his eye.

23 Afterward he will arise and requite them, and he will bring their recompense on their heads.

24 Yet to those who repent he grants a return, and he encourages those whose endurance is failing.

25 Turn to the Lord and forsake your sins; pray in his presence and lessen your offenses.

26 Return to the Most High and turn away from iniquity, and hate abominations intensely.
